  1. Danzig's Black Aria II coming soon on George Dantzig, 1914-2005 · · Score: 1

    But Glenn Danzig will continue on with Black Aria II:

    The follow up to 1993's "Black Aria" which reached the #1 position on Billboard's Classical chart.

    "Black Aria II" focuses on Lilith, a mythical figure and Eve's predecessor as the first wife of Adam who has come to symbolize female independence and rebellion. It is said that Lilith was banished to the desert, had sex with demons, brought plagues to the Earth, and, taking on the form of a serpent, seduced Eve to eat the fateful apple. "Black Aria II" was produced by Danzig. An early summer 2005 release on Danzig's Evilive label is expected.

    You'll either really love it, or really hate it. There doesn't seem to be any in-between.

    "This record has no failings; the reason some people are disappointed in it is because of something they lack, not because Black Aria lacks anything. So be aware that this album is a test, a test for the existence of a soul. If you possess a soul, you will find that this recording will give it new wings. If you lack a soul, you will find that this recording will cast you down into the pit, never to rise again. You have been warned."

    "A Soundtrack to Last War On Earth?"

    "If you have been searching for the perfect ritual musick, look into this one. Here is an exceptional work which will effectively aid to bring many successful Magical operations. The cover is graced by an incubus demon, & an angel in romantic rapport. To listen & absorb this etherial & carnal opus is to trancend the earth plane, & sail across the heavenly spheres. One is taken deep into the cavernous wombs of the earth, & to the highest mountaintops, even unto the very depths of the soul. This is sonic darkness..."

    "That's the weird paradox I feel when I listen to Black Aria-I don't like it and it's not long enough."

    "If you are familiar with Glenn Danzigs prior work then this will become a bit of a shock for you. This album is purely instrumental with some background female vocals that are truly moving. I would not classify it as Rock, but Ambient. This is truly a beautiful piece of art that he has put together with this album. I had a very hard time finding it because there were only a limited number of them released the first time, I was ecstatic to find that it had been re-released."

    "One of the greatest cds ever recorded"

    "Danzig at his best!"

    "This is Not Typical Danzig - It's Better!"

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-reviews/ B00004NKGH/

    Then again, other people say:

    "Easily the worst cd of all time"

    "Total rubbish!"

    Oops, wrong Dantzig guy... Sorry.

  2. Re:Nice Spin on Teacher Fired for P2P Lecture · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Get in line, you sheep.

    Apparently you cannot see the bigger picture:

    The issue is:

    What motivation did the administration have to have "wishes" of that nature? Do you really think it was the administration alone? No, the administration was affected by an external force - the M.A.F.I.A. (See other posts in this topic for what that means).

    As the administrations true onus is to provide an environment for learning, and not just to learn those OfficiallyApproved(TM) topics, but anything that would advance human knowledge, then the administration was acting against it's own charter.

    Quit spouting the line of the true conformist.

    Algae is the best oxygen generating plant, AFAIK. I know I read that most of the oxygen we breath is from Algae.

    Now which strain(s) of algae is another question.

    OK, just did some googling, and found this:

    "Diatoms, along with dinoflagellates, these microscopic single-celled algae produce most of the oxygen on this planet. Here is an electron micrograph of Biddulphia showing the porous nature of the silicious diatom skeleton, and it's use as diatomaceous earth in coating and trapping particles in filters. And a shot of green live diatoms. These algae often are the cause of light brown "scums" or smears on aquarium walls or substrates; rarely as causes of "green water"."

    Yes, but it WAS intended to be a Representative Democracy, or more precise, a Representative Republic. And the bad thing here is that the 'Representative' part is gone, all except for the shimmering/fading illusion of it. (Much like the smile of the fading Cheshire Cat.)

    Instead, it's just a bunch of bums (With the US meaning of the word, but the UK meaning is just as good...) running the country doing whatever will allow them to panhandle more funds/power/etc.
