地鐡廣告






點解版權條例修訂咁多人反對 ? 點建被稱為網絡廿三條? 因為呢個係僅餘的言論自由,也被封殺,試想想如果版權條例修訂通過,呢個YouTube已經可能犯法!!

不得不讚,呢段片,極盡諷刺之能事,講出好多香港打工仔的心聲,垃圾地鐡,拍埋晒d 低b廣告,扮感人,正一on 9 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blue October - The Worry List

來自 Houston, Texas 既Blue October 出左新single - The Worry List, 悠閒週末時聽, 另有一番感受!!




I'm tired, twisted, barely breathing, buried in the dark
Don't be concerned, it's just the power of a breaking heart.
How good am I hiding it?
Look, I've got some bad intentions.
Guilty as fucking charged.
Still standing stable, more than able 'cause I know who you are.
I know the birthdays, anniversaries, all the first days I missed.
I regret them all.
But now I know this:

I know that God exists.
I held her in my arms.
I never knew I was able to ever feel this strong.
Take me off your worry list.
It'll be better that way.
I'm really fine and there's nothing we haven't talked about.
So, take me off your worry list I said, "Throw it away."
This is what my life is about.
I might have been gone but I never walked out.

I've taken a thousand red eyes to change your point of view.
What kind of man would take the trust you break and still follow through?
'Cause I'm standin' right here.
And you may not show up.
This same gate 14 where, honestly, I'm just sick of calling your bluff.
And it's just embarrassing, that I nearly threw up
And I'm trying hard to change the things I always screw up.
And at the top of my list, this visitation's no relationship.
But I gotta make the best of it.
'Cause I know -
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/blue_october/the_worry_list.html ]
I know that God exists.
I held her in my arms.
I never knew I was able to ever feel this strong.
Take me off your worry list.
It'll be better that way.
And I'm doin' fine and I've got plenty of friends around.
Take me off your worry list.
Just throw it away.
Well, it's time to stand up on my own for her.
'Cause I'm packing it up, and I'm comin' today.

I couldn't wait to finally pick my family up.
Everything is quiet and covered in snow.
There's something wrong here...
Nobody's at home.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Now, I'm back in the driver's seat.
Heading back home.
Yeah, back to Texas on my own.

Take me off your worry list.
It'll be better that way.
And I'm doin' fine and I've got plenty of friends around.
Take me off your worry list.
Just throw it away.
Yeah, it's time to stand up on my own for her.
I'm packing it up, and I'm comin' today.
This is what my story's about.
I might have been gone but I never walked out.
I'm packin' it up, and I'm comin' today.

This is what your story's about.
My pretty little girl, can you figure it out?
If it helps to know so there is no doubt,
Just listen to the stories.
Not everything is glorious.
Some hurt, some love, some shout.
I fought the world and I lost that bout.
And you are what my album's about.
I might have been gone, but I never walked out.

民主派出賣網民


鄭經翰:民主派出賣網民

《信報》真政經

《2011年版權(修訂)條例草案》上周五在立法會討論,由於政府提出修訂,建議法庭應先考慮惡搞作品會否對版權人造成所謂「超乎輕微的經濟損害」,泛民竟然初步接納,意味條例很可能會獲得通過。

消息一經傳出,即惹起創作人的激烈反應,網民尤為激動,周日已跑上街頭,以行動抗議被指為「網絡二十三條」的《版權條例》修訂草案。

泛民接受政府修訂的所謂理由完全站不住腳,簡直是不知所謂,充分反映他們根本不知言論自由和創作自由為何物,在政治上的立場保守落後,其實與他們長期對敵的建制派並無二致。

泛民讓步 令人憤慨

政府以時間緊逼、難作廣泛諮詢為由,拒絕泛民議員最初提出豁免起訴二次創作的要求,但卻同意泛民提出的必須證明作品對版權人構成具體經濟損害才能入罪的說法,並承諾三讀通過修例後,下個立法年度便會諮詢應否豁免二次創作。泛民的湯家驊不知愚蠢抑或過於關顧幕後支持者的所謂經濟利益,竟然認為「政治惡搞通常不會構成商業利益」,所以可以接受政府的修訂,並很大可能投票支持法案通過。

湯家驊的論據,明顯是功利主義至上,以為明知反對不了政府修訂的條例草案,惟有退而求其次,作出一些可以接受的修訂,以便減低對普羅市民的損害。可是,他們忘記在一些基本原則上,根本沒有可以退讓的餘地,正如當年的二十三條立法,泛民也節節退讓,最終是群眾走上街頭,才能成功阻截政府通過法案。

泛民最令人失望和憤慨的地方,是完全不明白在捍衞言論自由和創作自由的立場上,根本應該寸步不讓,絕對沒有退讓的餘地,因為稍一讓步,便自設囹圄,名副其實是搬起石頭砸自己的腳,愚不可及。

言論自由固然是第一優先,除非觸犯法例,根本應該全無禁地,即使觸犯法例構成誹謗,受害人也可依循現有法例興訟,追究責任,最終結果當然以法庭裁決為依歸。事實上,現行的法例已容許版權人依法追究,向惡搞的二次創作者提出民事訴訟,如今再修訂《版權條例》,無疑是槓上開花,要在創作者頭上加上一把刀,予以威嚇。

盛女愛作戰



最近, 最hit節目, 唔駛多講, 一定係呢套, 盛女愛作戰, 同盧大哥每日分析, 意見一致, 盛女外表其實不是問題, 最大問題是「態度」!! 如果孤芳自賞, 又冇先天條件, 死得!

前兩日, 聽香港人網節目「早朝天下」, 主持皇上, 評論一針見血, 炮轟節目中個位甚麼星級人生教練 Winnie (你奶奶的! 人生教練 ? 這是甚麼職業來的? ) 甚表讚同!!

肅貪倡廉,有冇決心,唔係聽你講嘜,而係聽你說話流唔流利,多次口窒窒,真係餚撚晒底!

六歲前的孩子做甚麼?

愛因斯坦講過: 常識是人類18歲前的一種偏見...

當人人都一窩峰去做時, 是否就代表好? 這是一篇好文章, 香港的怪獸家長, 值得反思!! 我有一位老表, 一位親戚, 他們的兒女, 都是沒有接受學前教育, 和我們一樣, 3歲讀幼稚園, 他們的想法, 我是由心的敬佩!!

六歲前的孩子做甚麼?


《明報》專欄作者王師奶在「如果 6歲前玩玩吓」引述屈穎妍文章,講到德國有法例規定, 6歲以下兒童,不得進行任何形式的學前教育。

若將此法例引進香港,不知會引起怎樣的社會反響?德國立此法例,自有嚴謹的科學依據。德國科學家經研究證實,一個成長中的大腦若過早輸入太多知識,大腦功能就會慢慢習慣儲存,而不是思考。長大成年後,這個大腦基本上只有儲存功能,沒有思考功能。

德國盛產哲學家、文學家、音樂家,也誕生了包括愛因斯坦在內的眾多卓越的科學家,德國更以其精優的工業科學聞名全球。此外,德國還被譽為工程師的搖籃。德國人不僅嚴謹、科學、注重邏輯,也充滿了創造力和想像力。我們沒有理由不相信,德國人的教育方針是值得借鏡的。

反觀香港的孩子們, 6歲前在做甚麼呢?被父母送去參加一個一個「興趣班」,而他們其實不知道自己的興趣是甚麼,他們甚至沒有機會好好認識自己,認識這個世界,只是被一堆一堆的「知識」填充大腦。來不及消化,不懂得思考。沒有童真,沒有孩子應該有的快樂。

我一向認為孩子應該有孩子的世界,孩子應該用自己的雙手、自己的雙眼去感知這個世界,用自己的小腦袋去想像目力所及之外的一切。我們的教育制度,有沒有值得改進的地方呢?

Of Monsters and Men - Little Talks


來自冰島 (Reykjavík, Iceland) 既6人新星 Of Monsters and Men, 首張 single "Little Talks" 確是出色之作, 歌詞值得細味!!







Hey! Hey! Hey!
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear
The stairs creak as I sleep, it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes

Some days I can't even trust myself
It's killing me to see you this way

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

Hey! Hey! Hey!
There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
I tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will all be over, buried with our past
You used to play outside when you were young,
Full of life and full of love

Some days I feel like I am wrong and I am right
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

Go go go away
I wish you'd disappear
All that's left is a ghost of you
Now we're torn torn torn apart, there's nothing we can do
Just let me go, me against you
Now wait wait wait for me
Please hang around
I see you when I fall asleep

Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same
Hey!

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry
Our bodies safe to shore

有d網友俾既comment, 甚為同意!!

"This is a song I loved and loved 1000x better after reading the lyrics. Instead of a fun catchy new tune the meaning was really hit hard on me. I think it’s about a woman leaving her husband and the song is their argument. She is trying to defend her decision and he is heartbreakingly supportive:

I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear

Then in a few lines down when he reminisces about playing outside "when we were young, full of live, full of love" she starts with her verse before he finishes and cuts off the word "love" because she can't listen because it's too painful and she knows she may be making a mistake: 

Some days I feel like I am wrong and I am right

In the chorus I hear "The screams all sound the same" and not "The streets of Solomon sang". It becomes interesting as the instruments seem to get a little louder and faster in a frantic way towards the end of the song representing the heightened emotion and anger between the two. Even the tone of when the two sing become less harmonious and more frustrated.

I just can’t figure out what the ship is. In my mind they don’t end up together. After all is said and done they part ways and live their separate lives, fall in love with other people, and basically have a happy ending (safe to shore), just without each other which. It’s heartbreaking to think the love of your life could be fine without you and the little talks."
