Snowflake is dying :(
Copito de Nieve (Snowflake), the famous White Gorilla that lives in the Barcelona Zoo in Spain is dying.
The white albino gorilla was diagnosed with skincancer and has only a few weeks left to live.
Fourty years ago Snowflake was born in Equatorial Guinee in Africa. He/she's not only the only albino gorilla on earth, but also the first gorilla to be ever diagnosed with skincancer. But then again, albino's have a large risk of getting skincancer due to their delicate skin.
); Poor Copito de Nieve :(
Home Alone
Old news I know. But it just didn't fit in yesterdays deathrow.
A 2 year old toddler survived 3 weeks of being home alone. After her mother got arrested she did not mention she had a 2 year old daughter at home. After 19 days the father, who lives seperated from his daughter and hardly got to see her, went in search of his daughter after hearing of her mothers arrest.
On arriving at the apartment of his ex he found his daughter, naked and covered in mustard and ketchup, watching tv.
The little girl had survived the 19 days by eating food from the lowest cabinets and drawers, mostly dry macaroni and spaghetti, ketchup and mustard.
The mother is getting charged with child abuse (or endangerment or uhm something)
Holland enters cyberattack top 10.
Yes! We just hit #8 in the top 10 of countries that do cyberattacks.
We beat Taiwan out of the top 10, yay!
And #1 ? Duh! America with 51%!!!
Second are Germany and China with both 5%. The Netherlands reached 2%.
The entire top10 is responsible for 80% of all cyberattacks.
So-called Blended Threats are the most wide-spread. Two of these are the Slammer and Blaster, we all know and "love".
Slammer was able to crash many big systems worldwide within hours. And Blaster had a infection-rate of over 2500 computers per hour. Yay! Uhm, I mean, bastards!
According to Symantec this is only the beginning, sooner or later we will see more worms tearing down networks and attacking our internet access. Uh-oh!
Microsoft pays up...
Microsoft payed a settlement of 10,5 million dollars for overpricing the software they sold on their site and other direct selling points :P Silly Bill (pun intended)
Sharky...
Some Canadanian scientists found the oldest shark fossil to date. The 409 million year old fossil is from Devon and is some 20 million years older then the previously oldest. Sharks like this are called Doliodus Problematicus, cos early finds were hard to identify as sharks. Finds like this are rare cos most predator fish skeletons desolve cos the bone is weak (dunno the name right now :S) Lubly sharkses them though.
Dognapped or Dead Dawgs ?
According to animalfriends in Athens the Olympic commity is responsible for the death of 3000 stray dogs.
Athoc, the council that is preparing the city for the upcoming Olympics asked the Athens Council to prepare the city by cleaning it up, among the cleaning was the getting rid of the 10.000 stray dogs that roam around Athens. How they did it ? They killed em, poisoned em, burned and threw em in garbage containers. Hmm, now that aint nice, not nice at all....:S Athoc calls it slander, oh, and they get 1,8 million to deal with the dogs, and they caught 62 so far...and released em too, nice people eh ? Only 9938 to go, according to their story anyway...
Homosexual Necrofilia Duckus....
Oi!? Yea, well, uhm. This dutch professor guy won a fake dutch nobelprize for useless research.
One day a duck flew against the a large window of the university. The professor witnessed it and kept looking. What happened after that is what he did his research on...
The duck died, and another duck that was following it flew up to it, and started doing the dead duck. After raping it for 1 hour and 15 minutes it stopped and flew away....
Later researched showed that they where both male, so it was a clear case of....Homosexual Necrophelia, among ducks....
So yea, pretty useless if you ask me...
Great lyrics!!!! (?)
First one is by : 16 Down. Its a dutch band with a one-hit-wonder. The song is called Subtle Movements. Great stuff.
The subtle movements of her eyes said it all
Made my thoughts wonder of, couldn’t get enough
The perfume of this girl, in front of me, is killin’ me
This soultrip rolls along this road
Straight into the unknown is where I wanna go
I’m losing my head, losing my head over her
Spinning ‘round and ‘round so fast
When she touches me and I see her smile
She makes it all worthwhile
Spinning ‘round and ‘round so fast I believe she
Makes me whole, I never felt this much alive
So divine, she’s pure, she’s beautiful
And on days like this in the autumn winds
I feel that all I am is about her, about her
Spinning ‘round and ‘round so fast
When she touches me and I see her smile
She makes it all worthwhile
Spinning ‘round and ‘round so fast I believe she
Makes me whole, I never felt this much alive
She makes it all worthwhile……… (4x)
Spinning ‘round and ‘round so fast
When she touches me and I see her smile
She makes it all worthwhile
Spinning ‘round and ‘round so fast I believe she
Makes me whole, I never felt this much alive
Much alive
She makes me feel alive...
Second is : Judith by APC
You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I'll never ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How the savior has abandoned you
Fuck your God
Your Lord and your Christ
He did this
Took all you had and
Left you this way
Still you pray, you never stray
Never taste of the fruit
You never thought to question why
It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you
Broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you
He did it all for you
Oh so many many ways for me to show you
How your dogma has abandoned you
Pray to your Christ, to your god
Never taste of the fruit
Never stray, never break
Never---choke on a lie
Even though he's the one who did this to you
You never thought to question why
Not like you killed someone
It's Not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ
As if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you
Did it all for you
He did it all for you..
Third : Counting Crows - I wish i was a girl. I love the way they sing about suicide in this song...
The devil's in the dreaming
He tells you I'm not sleeping in my hotel room alone
With nothing to believe in
You dive into the traffic rising up
And it's so quiet
You're surprised
And then you wake
For all the things you're losing
You might as well resign yourself to try and make a change
I'm going down to Hollywood
They're gonna make a movie from the things that they find
Crawling round my brain
I wish I was a girl so that you could believe me
And I could shake this static everytime I try to sleep
I wish for all the world that I could say,
"Hey Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing alright these days. "
The devil's in the dreaming
You see yourself descending from a building to the ground
You watch the sky receding
You spin to see the traffic rising up
And it's so quiet
You're surprised
And then you wake
For all the things I'm losing
I might as well resign myself to try and make a change
But I'm going down to Hollywood
They're gonna make a movie from the things that they find
Crawling round my brain
I wish I was a girl so that you could believe me
And I could shake this static every time I try to sleep
I wish for all the world that I could say,
"Hey Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing alright these days. "
In one of these dreams, you forgive me
It makes me think of the bad decisions that keep you at home
How could anyone else have changed?
All these wrong conclusions that leave you alone
How could everyone rearrange?
How could everyone else have changed?
What I see I believe
For all the things I'm losing
I might as well resign myself to try and make a change
Well, I'm going down to Hollywood
They're gonna make a movie from the things that they find
Crawling around my brain
I wish I was a girl so that you could believe me
And I could shake this static everytime I try to sleep
I wish for all the world that I could say,
"Hey Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing alright these days. "
But I can't sleep at night
The Fourth is also by the Counting Crows. Its Round Here, its like a tiny movie soundtrack...
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
[Chorus]
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
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 just a little misunderstood
she has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
[Chorus:]
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 Shhh I know it's only in my head
But the girl in 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
and 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
The fifth is by Elbow, a great english band. They have a sound that is a cross between radiohead and uhm, well, sad stuff. I think Mellon Collie and the infinite sadness should be their album name, not the Smashing Pumpkins' :) The song is called Scattered Black&Whites.
Been climbing trees I've skinned my knees
My hands are black the sun is going down
She scruffs my hair in the kitchen steam
She's listening to the dream I weaved today
Crosswords through the bathroom door
While someone sings the theme-tune to the news
And my sister buzzes through the room leaving perfume in the air
And that's what triggered this.
I come back here from time to time
I shelter here some days.
A high-back chair. He sits and stares
A thousand yards and whistles
Marching-band (Boom-ching)
Kneeling by and speaking up
He reaches out and I take a
Massive hand. Disjointed tales
That flit between short trousers
And a full dress uniform
And he talks of people ten years
Gone like I've known them all my life
Like scattered black 'n' whites….
Ill stop spamming now, just this last one : Green Lizard - Speak the Words. try getting the acoustic of this, great stuff.
I had enough words to say that I was sorry
I had enough ways to make it go away
But foolish pride has ruined the path before me
I guess the sun can only shine here once a day
I drowned myself in a wave of lost ambition
I filled your world with my hate and disbelief
I trapped my soul in an awkward disposition
And deep inside I hope that no one sees me
Can you feel the pain I hide
I laugh out loud but cry inside
No one's there to save me from my doubt
Cause I don't dare to speak the words out loud
Try to find me in my sorrow
Time won't take away the truth
Can't change the way that we are changing
I hope that we will finally learn to
Can you feel the pain I hide
I laugh out loud but cry inside
No one's there to save me from my doubt
Cause I'm too scared to speak the words out loud
I walk the dessert all alone
No place to rest my mind
The sun is burning in my soul, in my soul
Pride is our strongest thing in common
And time isn't always on our side
But tears are not the only answer
It's time you took this blindfold from me
Can you feel the pain I hide
I laugh out loud but cry inside
Will you be there to save me from my doubt
If I can learn to speak the words out loud
Out loud
I prolly have better lyrics in my collection, but i just skimmed through my most popular list for now :)
