PLEASE DON'T TWITTER ME!

Demnächst braucht Jack Bauer nur mal kurz bei Twitter.com nachschlagen und schon kann er den bösen Terroristen zumindest eine SMS schicken.

Ansonsten kann ich nicht ganz verstehen, warum dieser persönliche Überwachungs-Service plötzlich so immens erfolgreich ist... Hat in einem Jahr jeder so eine Twitter-ID am Kragen, die man mit dem Handy abfragen kann? Ähnlich wie beim Profil-Check in Second Life womöglich? Das tät ich nicht haben wollen...

OHNE HOLOCAUST KEIN PUNK

Jungle World: "Im New Yorker Punk wird auch der Umgang mit der Shoah verhandelt. ­steven lee beeber hat ein Buch über die jüdischen Ursprünge der Bewegung geschrieben (...) Es war Richard Meltzer, der Vater des Rockjournalismus, der Richard Blum alias Handsome Dick Manitoba vom Roadie zum Sänger der Band machte. Gerüchte­weise betätigte er sich als Wrestler und war stolzer Jude. Er zerstörte auf der Bühne das Equipment, beschimpfte das Publikum. Noch heute trägt er eine Baseballkappe der Yankees mit dem Da­vidstern drauf."

Handsome Dick betreibt heute übrigens in der Lower East Side das "Manitobas", die beste Kneipe in ganz Manhattan, wo es am Tresen jede Menge Punker-Nostalgie zum Bier gratis oben drauf gibt.

MOVIES:

INCUBUS - THE ESPERANTO FILM

William "Kirk" Shatner is always good for a laugh! Check out this great, great trailer:

Kirchersociety.com : "Incubus, the 1965 black and white horror film starring William Shatner, was the second movie ever released in the artificial language Esperanto (The first, Angoroj, appeared a year earlier). Though Incubus is considered something of a joke today — at most a a curious piece of film trivia — it’s actually quite striking in several respects. The cinematographer, Conrad Hall, went on to win three Academy Awards.

For many years, the original print of Incubus was thought to have been lost and all copies destroyed, but the film turned up in Paris 1996 and was re-released on DVD in 2001. According to Salon Magazine, the movie may be cursed."

POLITICS:

YOU CALL THAT HUMILIATION?

Terry Jones in "The Guardian": "It is also unacceptable that these British captives should be made to talk on television and say things that they may regret later. If the Iranians put duct tape over their mouths, like we do to our captives, they wouldn't be able to talk at all. Of course they'd probably find it even harder to breathe - especially with a bag over their head - but at least they wouldn't be humiliated."

POLITIK:

WER HAT UNS VERRATEN?

Wikipedia: "Social fascism was a theory supported by the Communist International (Comintern) during the late 1920s and early 1930s, which stated that social democracy is a form of fascism. At the time, the leaders of the Comintern, such as Joseph Stalin and Rajani Palme Dutt, argued that capitalist society had entered the "Third Period" in which a working class revolution was imminent, but could be prevented by social democrats and other fascist forces. Conflict that this theory caused was particularly evident in Germany."

"TRON" CLASSIFIED "SENSITIVE" BY HOMELAND SECURITY

INSANITY!!!! South Park-guys, did you read this story at kuro5hin.org : "Reports are emerging from members of the movie industry that the Department of Homeland Security has designated the 1982 film TRON as "sensitive", and ordered Walt Disney Studios to turn over all copies of the film in its posession. Retailers are also receiving notices to remove all copies of the film from stock shelves and turn them over to Federal officials. The reports have industry insiders bewildered and outraged.

(...)

Official concern reportedly centers around a portion of the movie's live-action sequence which was filmed at Shiva, a nuclear fusion research facility created at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Constructed in 1977 for research into generating fusion energy, Shiva used a battery of enormous lasers to smash tiny pellets of deuterium and tritium. It was hoped the resulting compression and shockwave would illustrate how to trigger fusion in the materials.

The facility was dismantled in 1981 after experiments were completed and its successor, Shiva/Nova, was built. However, as a government funded nuclear research program, it is subject to comprehensive national security guidelines, and it is this point that seems to have gotten the film into trouble.

'They said the [Shiva] scenes contained sensitive nuclear information,' said a Disney employee tasked with locating copies of the film in the studio's archives. 'I mean, the film's been out for 25 years. All of a sudden, there's something wrong with it? It's silly.'

The film is reportedly being sequestered via a National Security Letter, a result of the PATRIOT Act that permits Homeland Security to demand information and records without judicial oversight. The PATRIOT Act provides harsh criminal penalties for failing to comply with the letter, or even for disclosing to anyone that such a letter was received."
