KILL THE APPRENTICE http://www.myspace.com/killtheapprentice In the year 2005, Kill the Apprentice began their reign of mayhem upon the local South East QLD/Northern NSW live music scene with their own unique brand of Punk Rock'n'Roll. Always causing a stir at each and every party-inducing show they play....... The pace KTA set for themselves has seen some line-up changes over the years but 2009 saw the most solid line-up formed to-date.... Fronted by raging lead vocalist Kristy Wiesse, partnered with the unmistakable guitar tones of Sidney Constantine and grounded by the frenetic rhythm section of Diklich on bass and Tommy Creeper on drums...... Drawing on their influences of music absorbed as wasted youths growing up on a diet of pioneering punk rock'n'roll such as the Dead Kennedys, Suicidal Tendencies, Rancid, Bad Religion, The Clash, Patti Smith, PJ Harvey, Motorhead and NOFX without forgetting the rock'n'roll roots of Australia with bands like AC/DC, The Diviynls and Rose Tattoo. Kill the Apprentice punch out a sound that is true to their roots while being passionate, honest and full of energy. Something fresh, in a live music scene so drenched in waves of safe and mediocre de-tuned break-downs.
WHATEVER THAT MEANS http://www.myspace.com/whateverthatmeansmusic …Whatever That Means is a melodic punk rock band from Seoul, Korea.

After playing that first show, the decision was made to rearrange the lineup and make …WTM something more permanent. Trash entered on bass and a few months later Alex was added on lead guitar as the band’s final piece.
hi all! blackhole212 will be organising a benefit show for an anarchist gathering in medan that will happen on the 3rd to the 6th of june. all proceeds will go to helping anti-authoritarian locals in indonesia make it to the gathering. as some of them live very far from the event venue (it will be near the mountains in medan), and cannot afford transportation due to the intense poverty there, we are doing our part to try to send some money over to help as many people as we can make it.
the show will be on wednesday the 19th of may.
also, those interested in heading up for the event can also contact us and we’ll go over as a lioncitydiy/blackhole212 collective! it will a camping event, but for those who don’t have tents there will also be a hall to sleep in. there will be talks, discussion, workshops and a communal kitchen (!!!). so far, there are collectives from taiwan and philippines that have contacted the organizers and are heading over, so it would be a great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends in a borderless community.
we have been advised by the organisers not to post too much info on message boards/forums/chain mail (for obvious reasons), but those who want more info can contact us via email/phone, or directly to the organisers at antiotoritarian2010@gmail.com.
the event is still open to workshop/activity ideas, so we’re really excited to be a part of this!
also, for those of you who cannot make it, we also need sound people to take over the sound system for the week of 1st to the 6th of june @ blackhole. please contact us if you’d like to help out in that way! there’s still time to learn the ropes (it’s quite easy!) and get yourself more involved in our community space!

Nearly a decade later, he similarly uses Dante's INFERNO as a template to mold a romantic comedy around the early days of the Iraq war. The result is truly unique, managing to find humor amid the horrors of war while mixing in elements of a sweet love story--with Benigni's trademark manic persona at the center of it all. Benigni is Attilio, a poet and professor at a university in Rome who has recurring dreams in which he is to be married to a beautiful and mysterious woman. After attending a lecture by his friend, the visiting Iraqi poet Fuad (Jean Reno, THE PROFESSIONAL), Attilio finally sees the woman of his dreams in the form of Vittoria (Benigni's real-life wife, Nicoletta Braschi), a writer doing research for a book on Fuad. Vittoria resists Attilio's fawning attempts to seduce her before returning to Iraq with Fuad, where she suffers a head injury that leaves her unconscious in a bomb-damaged hospital. Fuad informs Attilio of her condition, prompting the lovesick poet to join the Red Cross to gain entrance to war-torn Baghdad. Learning that the hospital is severely lacking in supplies, Attilio makes his way through the equivalent of several circles of Hell to find medicine for his dream woman--encountering mine fields, directionally challenged camels, and suspicious American soldiers. Bizarre and bold, THE TIGER AND THE SNOW manages to once again showcase Benigni as one of the world's most innovative comic talents. Dreamlike, yet still effectively using moments of horror to convey a heartfelt antiwar message, the film also finds plenty of space for his affably hyperactive presence.

Description: I'm obviously too old to really appreciate Accepted. The only people who could really appreciate this movie are college students who haven't had to get a real job and start paying for things on their own. Its message of do what you want, not what the world wants you to do, falls apart when you stop to think that the only reason any of these people are able to do what they want is because someone else is paying to allow them to do that. Wow, I've certainly grown conservative in my old age, haven't I?
Justin Long, the junior member of the Vince Vaughn/Will Ferrell led Frat Pack, stars as Bartleby Gaines, a high-school senior who's slacked his way through life so far and is subsequently rejected from every college to which he applies. Since his parents are so gung-ho for him to go to college, he goes ahead and invents the South Harmon Institute of Technology (S.H.I.T.). At first it's just an acceptance letter and a website, but when his parents want to drop him off on his first day, he's forced, with the help of his friends, to use the $10,000 that his parents have given him for tuition, to lease an old building, clean it up, make it look like a college, and hire a Dean (Lewis Black). Of course, if he'd put even a quarter of that effort into getting into college, he probably could have been accepted into Harvard.
At first all seems good, he and his friends laze around the empty "college" building, but their peace is disrupted when hundreds of students show up claiming to have been accepted into the school. It seems that Bartleby's friend, who designed the site, actually made it functional. Rather than turning the new students away, Bartleby accepts their checks and decides to run the school. He builds the curriculum around whatever the students want to learn, which ends up being Slacking, Skateboarding and Bikini Watching. It's like a 21st Century version of the Freedom School from the movie Billy Jack.
The bad guys in the movie are, of course, the Frat Boys at the real college next door. You know, the idiots who will eventually go on to do something with their lives. Naturally, they're portrayed as arrogant assholes, because, if you believe Hollywood, every Frat Boy is an ass and every Sorority Girl is a slut.
Now, don't get me wrong, if you want to do your own thing in life, that's great. Go and do your own thing. However, these kids are doing their own thing with their parent's money and it's always easier to do your own thing when someone else is footing the bill. And, on top of that, Bartleby, the movie's hero, is doing his own thing by defrauding every student who attends S.H.I.T..
I can you hear you saying, dude, it's only a movie! Why worry about the philosophy behind it? Normally I wouldn't. I'd leave that for my brother Eric and his paranoid conspiracy theories. But the truth is, the movie isn't funny enough for me to ignore the message behind it. Granted, there are a few funny bits tucked in here and there, but never really more than a chuckle.
The cast is okay. Long, in his first starring role, is likable and talented, but he needs to pick better material.
Anyone still laboring under the misapprehension that the world owes them something, will probably enjoy this movie. Anyone living in the real world, probably will not.

Huraian:
Sebuah adaptasi filem dari novel fenomena LASKAR PELANGI karya Andrea Hirata, yang mengambil setting di akhir tahun 70-an .
Laskar Pelangi berkisah tentang 10 anak kampung di Desa Gantong, Pulau Belitong, Sumatera. Mereka bersekolah di sebuah SD Muhammadiyah yang bangunannya nyaris roboh dan pada waktu malam pula menjadi kandang ternak. Sekolah itu nyaris-nyaris ditutup jika muridnya tidak sampai 10 orang.
Hari pertama pembukaan kelas baru di sekolah SD Muhammadyah menjadi sangat menegangkan bagi dua guru luar biasa, Muslimah (Cut Mini) dan Pak Harfan (Ikranagara), serta 9 orang murid yang menunggu di sekolah yang terletak di desa Gantong, Belitong.
Jika saja tak ada Harun ( Jeffry Yanuar ), seorang anak berusia 15 tahun dengan keterbelakangan mental, yang disekolahkan oleh ibunya agar tidak hanya mengejar anak ayam di rumah, tentu tidak pernah terjadi kisah ini.
Muslimah atau Bu Mus dan Pak Harfan , dua orang inilah yang meneruskan perjuangan sekolah tersebut. Mereka menginginkan anak-anak miskin berhak untuk menggapai cita-cita. Rasa menyerah, putus asa, dialami Bu Mus dan Pak Harfan karena tidak adanya minat serta biaya bagi kaum miskin untuk menyekolahkan anak-anaknya.
Maklum, bagi kalangan bawah, menyekolahkan anak berarti mengikatkan diri pada beban biaya yang harus ditanggung selama bertahun-tahun. Termasuk tertutupnya kesempatan mempekerjakan si anak secara penuh waktu demi membantu mengurangi beban hidup yang berat.
Namun di hari itu Harun, seorang murid istimewa menyelamatkan mereka. Berkat Harun, jumlah murid genap menjadi 10 orang dan sekolah batal ditutup. Lalu, sepuluh murid itu diberi nama Laskar Pelangi oleh Bu Muslimah .
Lima tahun berlalu, Bu Mus, Pak Harfan dan ke sepuluh murid dengan keunikan dan keistimewaan masing-masing, berjuang untuk terus bisa sekolah. Di antara berbagai tantangan berat dan tekanan untuk menyerah, Ikal ( Zulfani ), Lintang (Ferdian) dan Mahar ( Veris Yamarno ) dengan bakat dan kecerdasannya muncul sebagai pendorong semangat sekolah mereka.
Film ini dipenuhi kisah tentang kalangan pinggiran, kisah perjuangan hidup menggapai mimpi yang mengharukan, serta keindahan persahabatan yang menyelamatkan hidup manusia.
Seperti diketahui, film ini diangkat dari novel dengan judul yang sama, Laskar Pelangi, karya Andrea Hirata. Ini adalah novel pertama Andrea. Kabarnya, novel ini adalah memoar masa kecilnya dan semua pelakunya adalah nyata.
Laskar Pelangi adalah teman-teman masa kecil Andrea saat bersekolah di sekolah kampung yang miskin di Belitong. Tapi, tidak disebutkan secara eksplisit dalam novel itu oleh Andrea Hirata bahwa itu adalah kisah nyata.
Setelah diangkat ke layar lebar, film yang disutradarai Riri Riza itu berhasil menampilkan setting akhir tahun 1970an.
Pemandangan indah dan menarik membuat film ini tak membosankan ditonton dari awal hingga akhir. Isi cerita cukup mewakili penggambaran tentang semangat mengejar cita-cita.
Film ini sukses mencampur aduk perasaan penonton. Ada bumbu serius, lucu, dan sedih.
Ada satu adegan lucu yakni ketika Ical jatuh cinta kepada A Ling. Cinta monyet itu berawal dari membeli kapur. Berikutnya, Ical rela melakukan apapun agar dapat bertemu kembali dengan A Ling, walau untuk itu dia harus membagikan kapur kepada anak-anak Laskar Pelangi.
Nah, apakah film ini sesuai bayangan Anda ketika membaca novelnya? Temukan jawabannya dengan langsung menontonnya sendiri. Anda tak akan puas jika hanya membaca review film Laskar Pelangi.

When he gets an assignment to shoot on the streets of the Republican National Convention protests, he meets Seven, one of the young leaders of the masked anarchist Black Bloc.

Later that night, after shooting Seven with her mask down describing the Bloc's militant objectives, the videotape is mistakenly returned to the network with the rest of his footage.

Members of the Irish Women's Workers' Union on the steps of Liberty Hall, c. 1914. The Union was founded in 1911 [Photograph from the Irish National Archives]
There are a few ways in which International Women's Day can be approached. It can be ignored. This is what mostly happens in the mainstream media. Unlike Valentines Day and Mothers Day, cards aren't given and presents aren't bought. With no profit to be made out of it, the day is not exactly one that jumps out and grabs the attention.
International Women's Day is an expressly political day. In 1907 women sweatshop workers marched in New York and thus the first International Women's day was born. Often when women are celebrated it is because they are either cute (Valentine's Day) or caring (Mothers' Day).
There is nothing wrong with being cute or caring, but on Internationals Women's day we get to highlight those of us who are politically active, those who are fighting for a better world, those who know that there can be a better world. I don't know their names but I know I have linked arms with women at Shannon Airport protesting against the war. I've stood in front of bin lorries with women from the estate I live on. I have met women as we marched, leafleted, picketed and posters for the right to have an abortion on Irish soil.
There are many many ways in which life is difficult for women in Ireland, from our pay packets, to the fact that we get little support if we decide to have children and no support if we decide not to have children. We have to wait weeks (and sometimes months) for something as simple as the result of our smear tests. Like men we live in a country which can't provide housing, medical services, and security, basic human needs for all citizens. Yes there is a lot to be angry about and a lot to change.
Thankfully, many of us, like those women who marched in the cold 102 years ago, are not willing to make do with what we have been offered. International Women's day is a celebration of those women who make things better.
