La Cage Aux Folles
Short Synopsis
This song is taken from the musical "La Cage Aux Folles" written by Jerry Herman. The musical is based on a French film with the same title. The premiere of this film was on August 21st, 1983 at the Palace Theatre in New York and it ran there for 1761 performances. In 1996 a new movie "The Birdcage" was made out of it with actors like Robin Williams and Gene Hackman.
The musical is about the transvestite night-club "La Cage Aux Folles" in the seedy part of St. Tropez, France. Georges is the owner of the night-club and Albin is Georges's gay lover and star performer as ZaZa at the club. Georges' son Jean-Michel from a previous marriage to a woman wants to marry a woman - the daughter of Dindon, a notoriously narrow-minded politician. Jean-Michel wishes to present himself as coming from a high moral background and invites his fiancée's parents to his home where Georges has to remove anything that may be considered as inappropriate. Jean-Michel's real mother should come to play an intact marriage, but calls to say that she cannot come. To the utter astonishment from the others, Albin walks in exclaiming "Here's Mother", and takes her place. Albin is eventually de-frocked, it results in high insanity and it all ends up with Dindon and his wife dressing up in high-heels, tights and leotards.
Although La Cage was Broadway's first homosexual musical, it was nevertheless a mainstream production. Director Arthur Laurents didn't allow his lead characters so much as a peck on the cheek for fear that he might offend his audience.

Lyrics I Am I Am What I Am:
I am what I am
I am my own special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook or the ovation
It's my world that I want to have a little pride in
My world and it's not a place I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn till you can say
Hey world I am what I am
I am what I am
I don't want praise
I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it's noise
I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each feather and each spangle
Why not try and see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham till you can say
Hey world I am what I am
I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace
Sometimes the deuces
It's my life and there's no return and no deposit
One life, so it's time to open up your closet
Life's not worth a damn till you can say
Hey world I am what I am
(Transcribed by Roman)
Lyrics Big Spender:
The minute you walked in the joint
I could see you were a man of distinction, a real big spender
Good looking, so refined
Say, wouldn't you like to know what's going on in my mind?
So let me get right to the point
I don't pop my cork for every man I see
Hey big spender!
Spend a little time with me
Wouldn't you like to have fun, fun, fun?
How's about a few laughs, laughs?
I could show you a good time
Let me show you a good time
The minute you walked in the joint
I could see you were a man of distinction, a real big spender
Good looking, so refined
Say, wouldn't you like to know what's going on in my mind?
So let me get right to the point
I don't pop my cork for every man I see
Hey big spender!
Hey big spender!
Hey big spender!
Spend a little time with me
Yes

The Senator is not ashamed or feel badly about his mixed ethnicity. (More) Senator Barack Obama is Biracial not just the Black (African-American) Senator. From what is written in his book and his interviews. The Senator is not ashamed or feel badly about his mixed ethnicity.
Senator Barack Obama is mixed both black (African-American) and white (Caucasian) races, biologically and genetically.
He is the first biracial Presidential candidate, If elected President of The United States he will be the first Biracial man elected to the office,not the first Black man.
Senator Barack Obama (Illinois) was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961, to Barack Obama, Sr. (born in Nyanza Province, Kenya) and Ann Dunham (born in Wichita, Kansas). His parents met while both were attending the University of Hawaii at Manoa, where his father was enrolled as a foreign student. Barack Obama's birthname is Barack Hussein Obama
Barack Hussein Obama shown with his mother who was born late in November 1942, in Wichita. She died of cancer in 1995.
continued education at Occidental College, Los Angeles, Calif.; received a B.A. in 1983 from Columbia University, New York City; worked as a community organizer in Chicago, Ill.; studied law at Harvard University, where he became the first African American president of the Harvard Law Review, and received J.D. in 1991; lecturer on constitutional law, University of Chicago; member, Illinois State senate 1997-2004; elected as a Democrat to the U.S. Senate in 2004 for term beginning January 3, 2005.
There are some in the media and public that make some very moronic and idiot comments.
Senator Barack Obama mentions his race often. This is not the truth,it's the public,the media and his opponents that continue to do this.
Many people insist that Obama is a racist. That he is a "black man" who hates white people.
There is a problem with that argument: Obama is not just black.
It's out right stupid and lazy to just simply call all biracial people black,it's very dumb.
Senator Barack Obama is biracial. Why are some people so stuck on ignorance and stupidity about this mans racial identity? We do not get the choose one race for a person who is 2 races. He is not even predominantly black.
In the past, there was a "One Drop Rule" and it meant that anyone with a known black ancestor was considered black under the law. It did not matter whether a person was 5% black. He was black under the One Drop Rule. There are still many in society are very ignorant and still believe in this stupidity.
This was a political fabrication in response to a need for manual labor. The USA needed laborers. This "law" was fabricated in order for more people to be considered legally black. This would include the redhead who is 95% white. A purely political agenda.
It was unscientific then.
And it is unscientific now.
He is as black as he is white.
He is as white as he is black.
WE DO NOT GET TO CHOOSE WHAT RACE HE IS
Obama is not "a black person"
He will never be "a black person"
No matter how much we insist.
That is not how genetics work.
-From: PriestessLeah -
Also some will say who cares about his races? Were all human being and it should not matter? Well the truth is,unfortunately in the real world it matters to so many still in this present day, in every day life. Or black (African-American) are mixed with many races. Senator Obamas immediate biologicai mother and father are to different races. Immediate Parents,not 400 years of race mixing with some.
The Fact is genetically Sen. Barack Obama is a Biracial man both Black & White and thats the truth. He has two races in his genes Black & White that can not be changed by calling him one race without the other.
It is extremely ignorant for so many including the *media think that he should not recognize his own heritage, and be shameful of his Biracial identity. Lenny Kravitz,Derek Jeter,Sade,Halle Berry,Paula Abdul (American Idol),Mariah Carey,Soledad O'Brian &The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) & Tiger Woods (multiracial) are biracial and proud of it. All though there are some biracial people in society who may have a disdain or hatred for one of the races in thier genes. But for the most part, most biracial people are proud of who they are.

The show from which these video clips were taken was the Pilot and never aired. Jerry (More) A 2007 Titillating Horror SitCom Where Psycho meets The Beaver Leave It to Beaver hit the airwaves in 1957. The show from which these video clips were taken was the Pilot and never aired. Jerry Mathers played Theodore 'Beaver' Cleaver Barbara Billingsley was June Cleaver, his Mom. Hugh Beaumont would be Ward and Tony Dow, Wally Cleaver, after the pilot. For the first, unaired show, Casey Adams played Ward. And another actor played Tony. Ken Osmond as Eddie Haskell did not show in the pilot, let alone Larry Mondello. I think I saw Dennis the Menace's neighbor in there too... ! So I asked myself, "Wouldn't it be interesting to blend Alfred Hitchcoc's Horror / Thriller into that sit com?"' "No?" you say. Uh Ohhh - you must thus sit this one out for that's what I did anyway I combined Anthony Perkins as crazy Cleaver neighbor, Norman Bates - along with Janet Leigh as the other beaver, Marion Crane. Enjoy ! Bill Stoll StollCo Video - 2007 ~~~ Plot summary for Psycho (1960) Phoenix officeworker Marion Crane is fed up with the way life has treated her. She has to meet her lover Sam in lunch breaks and they cannot get married because Sam has to give most of his money away in alimony. One Friday Marion is trusted to bank $40,000 by her employer. Seeing the opportunity to take the money and start a new life, Marion leaves town and heads towards Sam's California store. Tired after the long drive and caught in a storm, she gets off the main highway and pulls into The Bates Motel. The motel is managed by a quiet young man called Norman who seems to be dominated by his mother. Written by Col Needham {col@imdb.com} For Marion Crane, it's been quite an eventful day. The day before, she had stolen $40,000 from her employer's client, packed her bags and driven all day on her way to join her paramour several hundred miles away. Now, she is taking a relaxing hot shower after her long day's journey. The remoteness of the motel suit her purposes perfectly. The only sounds heard are the chirping of the crickets, the splashing of the water, and her humming contentedly as the hot needles of water caress her aching shoulders. Written by filmfactsman Plot summary for Leave It to Beaver (1957) The Cleavers are the 1950's 'All-American Family' in this 'feel-good' family sitcom. Parents Ward and June, and older brother Wally, try to keep Theodore ('the Beaver') out of trouble. However, Beaver continues to end up in one kind of jam or another. Unlike real life, these situations are always easily resolved to the satisfaction of all involved and the Beaver gets off with a few stern moralistic words of parental advice. Instigator and troublemaker Eddie Haskal is an older kid who always manages to avoid being caught. ~~~ Quentin Tarantino - Where are ya when we need you. The perfect art for your team is this... Leave It to Beaver Leave It to Beaver is an American television situation comedy about an idealized American family of the 1950s. CBS first aired the show on October 4, 1957, but decided to drop it within a year. ABC picked it up and ran it for another five years, from October 2, 1958 to June 20, 1963. It was produced by Gomalco Productions (1957-1961) and by Kayro Productions (1961-1963), and distributed by Revue Studios. Premise The show is built around young Theodore Cleaver (Jerry Mathers) and the trouble he gets himself into while navigating his way through an often-incomprehensible, sometimes-illogical world. When he was a baby, his older brother Wally (Tony Dow) mispronounced "Theodore" as "Tweedor". Their firm-but-loving parents, Ward (Hugh Beaumont) and June Cleaver (Barbara Billingsley), felt "Beaver" sounded better. Beaver's friends include the perpetually apple-munching Larry Mondello (Rusty Stevens) in the early seasons, and, later, Gilbert Bates (Stephen Talbot), as well as the old fireman, Gus (Burt Mustin). His sweet-natured-but-no-nonsense elementary school teachers are Miss Canfield (to whom Beaver declares his love in the episode entitled "Beaver's Crush") (Diane Brewster) and Miss Landers (Sue Randall); Mrs. Rayburn (Doris Packer) is the principal. In the early seasons, Beaver's nemesis in class is Judy Hensler (Jeri Weil). His brother Wally is popular with both peers and adults, getting into trouble much less frequently. He letters in four sports and has little difficulty attracting girlfriends, among them Mary Ellen Rogers (Pamela Baird) and Julie Foster (Cheryl Holdridge). His pals include the awkward Clarence "Lumpy" Rutherford (Frank Bank) and smart aleck Eddie Haskell (Ken Osmond), the archetype of the two-faced wiseguy, a braggard among his peers and an obsequious yes man to the adults he mocks behind their backs. Eddie often picks on the Beaver. The family lives in the fictional town of Mayfield. Beaver attends Grant Ave. Grammar School, and Wally, Mayfield High School (after graduating from Grant Ave. in season one). Cast =List of Leave It to Beaver cast members Jerry Mathers as Theodore "Beaver" Cleaver. The casting directors noticed that Mathers was uneasy and asked him where he'd rather be. Mathers replied that he'd rather be at camp. That boyish youthfulness got Mathers the part of Beaver.[citation needed] Tony Dow as Wally Cleaver Hugh Beaumont as Ward Cleaver. Before he made Ward Cleaver his acting trademark, Beaumont sometimes played villains in film and television. Most familiarly, he played a former convict, Dan Grayson, struggling to go straight for the sake of his wife and son, in 1953's "The Big Squeeze" episode of Adventures of Superman, a few years before Beaver. He directed a number of Leave It to Beaver episodes in the last two seasons, including the final one, the retrospective "Family Scrapbook". Beaumont was an ordained Methodist minister, who from 1974 until his death, sold live Christmas trees. Barbara Billingsley as June Cleaver. Billingsley has said that June Cleaver's wardrobe was more than a fashion statement. The pearl necklace hid neck shadows and high-heeled shoes were employed to offset the boys' growing height. Ken Osmond as Eddie Haskell. Osmond became a cop, serving eighteen years with the Los Angeles Police Department. Diane Brewster as Miss Canfield Sue Randall as Miss Landers Stephen Talbot as Gilbert Bates. Talbot works as a reporter for PBS' Frontline. Rusty Stevens as Larry Mondello Richard Correll as Richard Rickover Stanley Fafara as Whitey Whitney Jeri Weil as Judy Hensler Burt Mustin as Gus the fireman Frank Bank as Clarence "Lumpy" Rutherford Richard Deacon as Fred Rutherford, Lumpy's pompous, demanding father and Ward Cleaver's equally pompous, smug co-worker. Deacon was working a second job for much of the life of Leave It to Beaver; he was concurrently Alan Brady's (Carl Reiner's) brother-in-law/producer and Buddy Sorrell's Morey Amsterdam's foil on The Dick Van Dyke Show. Buddy Hart as Chester Anderson Tiger Fafara as Tooey Brown Pamela Baird as Mary Ellen Rogers Cheryl Holdridge as Julie Foster Cultural influence Leave It to Beaver often aimed toward a moral lesson and is referenced even now as an emblem of simpler American times. Ward stated that his father "had a fine sense of values",[1] and if Ward himself sometimes seemed possessed of the gentility of a man of the cloth, it may have come from Beaumont's own background: he had become an ordained minister before he took up an acting career. June Cleaver, likewise, became a model of the archetypal suburban 1950s mother who wanted nothing more than to stay at home and take care of the family. The show strongly promoted the importance of family. The recurring themes expounded parental expectations for children, while the moral messages stressed the importance of teaching children proper behavior. Proper parenting techniques and methods for resolving problems and achieving consensus were demonstrated. The pervasive influence of the show was the subject of a theory proposed in 1965: that a prime cause of the Watts Riots was "Television Kitchens." A study was done of they types of kitchens that appeared in TV commercials for cleaning products and in sit-coms, like Leave It to Beaver. Those shown on TV belonged in houses worth far more than the average house at the time. But these kitchens were being shown over and over, day after day, to people whose own kitchens did not match up. The implicit comparison was obvious: "That's typical, and this is what I've got?" [2] Episodes The pilot episode, which aired on April 23, 1957, was entitled It's a Small World.[3] It featured Max Showalter as Ward Cleaver, and Paul Sullivan as Wally Cleaver. TBS re-aired the pilot on Sunday, October 4, 1987, to commemorate the show's 30th anniversary. Syndication After 234 episodes, Leave It to Beaver ceased first-run production; however, the show didn't stay off the air for very long: reruns were part of CBS affiliates' lineups in the mornings for several years to come. TBS showed it for many years in the late 1980s, and now it airs on TV Land—where it has been shown since July 1998. Today, NBC Universal Television owns the syndication rights and all properties related to the series. Spinoffs A made-for-television reunion movie, Still the Beaver, appeared in 1983. The main original cast appeared, except for Beaumont, who had died the previous year. Ward Cleaver was still a presence, however: the film's story used numerous flashbacks to the original show, as it followed young-adult Beaver's struggle to reconcile divorce and newly-minted single fatherhood, straining to cope by what his father might or might not have done, while facing the possibility of his widowed mother selling their childhood home. June Cleaver is later elected to the Mayfield City Council. Its reception led to a new first-run, made-for-cable series, The New Leave It to Beaver (1985--1989), with Beaver and Lumpy Rutherford running Ward's old firm (where Lumpy's pompous, demanding father — played by Richard Deacon in the original series — had been the senior partner), Wally as a practicing attorney and expectant father, June having sold the old house to Beaver himself but living with him as a doting grandmother to Beaver's two small sons. Eddie Haskell runs his own contracting business and has a son, Freddie, who is every inch his father's son — right down to the dual-personality. Feature film 1997's movie adaptation of the series starred Christopher McDonald as Ward, Janine Turner as June, Erik von Detten as Wally, and Cameron Finley as Beaver. It was panned by many critics, except for Roger Ebert, who gave it a three-star rating. It flopped at the box office, earning only $11,713,605. Original TV co-stars Barbara Billingsley, Ken Osmond, and Frank Bank made cameo appearances in the film. The Cleaver house The Cleavers' address for the first two seasons was 485 Mapleton Drive, Mayfield. In the season-one episode "Beaver's Old Friend", Beaver states that the teddy bear (the "old friend") was given to him by his aunt at their old house, which implies that the Mapleton Drive was their second home. The family moved to 211 Pine Street, also in Mayfield, in season three. This house can still be seen at Universal Studios, though with the facade built for the 1996 production of the Leave it to Beaver movie — the original facade sits in storage elsewhere on the Universal lot (it was replaced in 1988 by the Klopek house for the following year's The 'Burbs) and is not shown on the tour. In 1969, it was used as the house for another Universal-produced television hit, Marcus Welby, M.D.. Musical theme The show's playfully-bouncy theme tune, which became as much of a show trademark as Beaver's baseball cap or Eddie Haskell's false obsequiousness, was "The Toy Parade," composed by David Kahn, Melvyn Leonard, and Mort Greene. For the final season, however, the song was given a jazz-like arrangement by veteran composer/arranger Pete Rugolo. The lyrics to the theme song are: Hey! Here they come with a rum-tee tum they're having a toy parade. A tin giraffe with a fife and drum is leading the kewpie parade. A gingham cat in a soldier's hat is waving a Chinese fan, A plastic clown in a wedding gown is dancing with Raggedy Ann. Fee fie fiddle dee dee they're crossing the living room floor Fee fie fiddle dee dee they're up to the dining room door. They call a halt for a choc'late malt or cookies and lemonade Then off they go with a ho ho ho right back to their toy brigade.

Snyder pointed out that he hadn't worked for a long time and that there was rumor going around that he had been killed "in the war in Southeast Asia". Mathers politely replied that he had heard that rumor and that he had no idea how it got started. The earliest appearance of the story in print was in a student newspaper at the University of Kansas in 1972. Later the author admitted that she had only heard the story from someone who had heard it a party in Omaha, Nebraska earlier that year. The paper printed a retraction but by then the story had swept the nation and this silly rumor joined the rest of the legends of Americana. The story was later attributed to a member of a defunct Omaha comedy improv group whose hobby was concocting outrageous stories and then convincing people they were true. "Beaver died in Vietnam"[1] was a classic urban legend, memorable for its juxtaposition of prelapsarian 1950s imagery with the chaos and violence of the 1960s. Another urban legend was that actor Ken Osmond (Eddie Haskell) became porn star John Holmes. Holmes took Osmond's name and did several movies satirically under the name "Eddie Haskell". It started because there was some facial resemblance between the two men, which porn distributors exploited by using the name Eddie Haskell in advertising Holmes's films. "It was a pain in my butt for eleven years," says Osmond,[citation needed] who brought a defamation suit against porn houses, producers and distributors. Mr. Osmond launched a $25 million suit. The suit went all the way to the California Supreme Court. The court ruled for Mr. Holmes, saying the name was protected as a satire. This case set a precedent in the matter, and is still referred by other cases in California today.[4] In a Rolling Stone interview with rock singer, Alice Cooper stated that he was "Eddie Haskell" as a child. He was speaking metaphorically, yet some readers interpreted him literally.[citation needed] Horror SitCom Horror Sit Com Horror Sit-Com (Less)

This video has been issued on many different VHS releases and also on laserdisc. Sadly this concert has yet to be released on DVD. Sleeve Note: Shirley Bassey, one of the handful of truly great performers in the entertainment business, returns to her native Wales for a gala concert and the evenings spectacular entertainment is captured here for posterity and for Shirley's legion of fans. I Am What I Am Written by Jerry Herman Released in 1984 on a single and on another version with the London Symphony Orchestra on the album I Am What I Am. Along with classic This Is My Life, Shirley Bassey sings this song at the end of almost every concert. For this reason, it is available on many collections and live recordings. It can be found live on The Birthday Concert , The Diamond Collection and on the 2003 compilation Thank you for the Years. Live performances can also be seen on the videos An Audience With Shirley Bassey, You Ain't Heard Nothing Yet and Divas Are Forever. After Shirley sings the word "ovation" in the line "give me the hook or the ovation" the audience usually breaks into applause. La Cage Aux Folles Short Synopsis This song is taken from the musical "La Cage Aux Folles" written by Jerry Herman. The musical is based on a French film with the same title. The premiere of this film was on August 21st, 1983 at the Palace Theatre in New York and it ran there for 1761 performances. In 1996 a new movie "The Birdcage" was made out of it with actors like Robin Williams and Gene Hackman. The musical is about the transvestite night-club "La Cage Aux Folles" in the seedy part of St. Tropez, France. Georges is the owner of the night-club and Albin is Georges's gay lover and star performer as ZaZa at the club. Georges' son Jean-Michel from a previous marriage to a woman wants to marry a woman - the daughter of Dindon, a notoriously narrow-minded politician. Jean-Michel wishes to present himself as coming from a high moral background and invites his fiancée's parents to his home where Georges has to remove anything that may be considered as inappropriate. Jean-Michel's real mother should come to play an intact marriage, but calls to say that she cannot come. To the utter astonishment from the others, Albin walks in exclaiming "Here's Mother", and takes her place. Albin is eventually de-frocked, it results in high insanity and it all ends up with Dindon and his wife dressing up in high-heels, tights and leotards. Although La Cage was Broadway's first homosexual musical, it was nevertheless a mainstream production. Director Arthur Laurents didn't allow his lead characters so much as a peck on the cheek for fear that he might offend his audience. Lyrics I Am I Am What I Am: I am what I am I am my own special creation So come take a look Give me the hook or the ovation It's my world that I want to have a little pride in My world and it's not a place I have to hide in Life's not worth a damn till you can say Hey world I am what I am I am what I am I don't want praise I don't want pity I bang my own drum Some think it's noise I think it's pretty And so what if I love each feather and each spangle Why not try and see things from a different angle Your life is a sham till you can say Hey world I am what I am I am what I am And what I am needs no excuses I deal my own deck Sometimes the ace Sometimes the deuces It's my life and there's no return and no deposit One life, so it's time to open up your closet Life's not worth a damn till you can say Hey world I am what I am (Transcribed by Roman) Lyrics Big Spender: The minute you walked in the joint I could see you were a man of distinction, a real big spender Good looking, so refined Say, wouldn't you like to know what's going on in my mind? So let me get right to the point I don't pop my cork for every man I see Hey big spender! Spend a little time with me Wouldn't you like to have fun, fun, fun? How's about a few laughs, laughs? I could show you a good time Let me show you a good time The minute you walked in the joint I could see you were a man of distinction, a real big spender Good looking, so refined Say, wouldn't you like to know what's going on in my mind? So let me get right to the point I don't pop my cork for every man I see Hey big spender! Hey big spender! Hey big spender! Spend a little time with me Yes (Transcribed by Roman) (Less)

Hammett is one (More) Metallica's lead guitarist Kirk Hammett playing some solos in a live concert in Seattle Kirk Lee Hammett (born on November 18, 1962) is the lead guitarist in the band Metallica. Hammett is one of the better-known students of guitarist and instructor Joe Satriani. In 2003, he was ranked 11th in the Rolling Stones "The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" Early life Born in San Francisco to a Filipino mother and an Irish Merchant Marine father, he later attended De Anza High School in El Sobrante, California when his family moved to the East Bay which is where he met Les Claypool from Primus. As a child and teenager, he showed great interest in his older brother Rick's extensive collection of guitars, Rickenbacker Basses and hard rock records, including material by Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Status Quo, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix and UFO. One of his biggest influences was Jimi Hendrix and Hammett was quoted as saying he wanted to be Jimi. He has also performed parts of Hendrix's songs during his guitar solos. He took up the guitar for the first time at the age of fifteen, beginning with a Montgomery Ward catalog special and little more than a shoebox with a four inch speaker for an amplifier. After picking up a 1978 Fender Stratocaster, Hammett attempted to customize his sound with various guitar parts, eventually falling for a 1974 Gibson Flying V. He even took a job at Burger King to raise funds for a Marshall amplifier. [edit] Pre-Metallica Hammett's musical interests eventually drew him into the fledgling thrash metal genre. In 1982, he formed the group Exodus with vocalist Paul Baloff, guitarist Gary Holt, bassist Geoff Andrews, and drummer Tom Hunting. He played on Exodus' 1982 Demo. Exodus was a crucial early player in the Bay Area thrash movement. [edit] Metallica Hammett was invited to join Metallica after the 1983 dismissal of the band's original lead guitarist Dave Mustaine for substance abuse, just before Metallica was to record its first album, Kill 'Em All. At the time Hammett was taking private guitar lessons from the now-famous Joe Satriani. In 2002, he became the first inductee into Guitar World magazine's "Hall of Fame". He has recorded and toured with Metallica for 24 years. Though he is primarily Metallica's lead guitarist, Hammett has written and contributed riffs for Metallica songs since the mid-1980s (particularly in the 1990s during the Load era). One of these riffs, used in "Enter Sandman", was written in a hotel room at 3:00 am, and became one of Metallica's most popular songs. It was the first track and first single on Metallica's self-titled "Black Album" and was ranked 399th on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. Also the riff for 'Creeping Death' was originally an Exodus riff that Kirk took with him to Metallica. Kirk has often been criticised for his extensive use of the wah-wah pedal in his solos (particularly on more recent albums), but he insists, "The wah-wah is an extension of my personality". He also once said, "They'll have to cut off my leg if they want me to stop using the wah-wah pedal." He usually adds harmonies to his solos, as seen on Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Disposable Heroes and The Thing That Should Not Be. Kirk wanted to have guitar solos on Metallica's 2003 album, St. Anger, but drummer Lars Ulrich and producer Bob Rock thought that the solos did not sound right in the songs. He later himself admitted, "We tried to put in solos but they sounded like an afterthought so we left them out". [edit] Personal life Kirk Hammett has been married twice. His first marriage to ex-wife Rebecca ended in 1990, during the recording of the Black Album, which consumed the band members' lives for almost an entire year. He now resides in San Francisco with Lani, his second wife, whom he married in 1998. On September 29th, 2006, Kirk and Lani had a son, named Angel Ray Keala Hammett. He is also expecting another son in November. [edit] Other appearances In 2006, Hammett voiced himself on The Simpsons ("The Mook, the Chef, the Wife and Her Homer"). He also provided various voices on the Adult Swim show Metalocalypse, including a two fingered fan ("The Curse of Dethklok"), The Queen of Denmark ("Happy Dethday"), and a Finnish barkeep ("Dethtroll") At Mid-January 2007, ESP Guitar Company has announced the release of a 20 piece Limited KH-20 Guitar, to celebrate 20 years of relationship with Kirk Hammett (based upon the KH-2 guitar with some modification). There will only be 40 guitars made and the price has been set at $9,999. (Less)

One of the most controversial Basketball players of all time, Allen Iverson is one of the most (More) Video shows the Interview and Highlight of AI in 2004 NBA season about his relationship with coach. One of the most controversial Basketball players of all time, Allen Iverson is one of the most loved and hated figures in Basketball. Born Allen Ezail Iverson in Hampton, Virginia, he grew up very poor to a struggling mother and a father who deserted him. Growing up, he was very athletic, playing football and basketball throughout most of his education prior to college. Iverson began focusing on basketball at his mother's insistence, despite wanting to be a football player. He proved to be a talented basketball player. At Bethel High School in Newport News, he began his high school basketball career. He developed a reputation of talking a lot and being uncoachable. To say he had a rough childhood is quite an understatement. On one of his places of residence, he walked through knee-deep sewage daily. During one summer, he witnessed the death of almost ten of his closest friends. Iverson first came to the national spotlight in 1993 in a controversial incident surrounding violent events at a bowling alley in Newport News. While the events that happened there will never be fully known, the generally accepted story is that some white students got into an argument with Iverson and his friends. The first question surrounding the event is whether he started it or if the white kids started it. Also, the question surrounded whether or not he assaulted a white woman by hitting her over the head with a chair. The prosecution insisted that surveillance tapes undoubtedly showed Iverson was the culprit, but in reality the tapes showed nothing conclusive. Two factors did him in at his hearing; first of all, two white people said they saw him assault the girl. Secondly, the judge was from the very conservative southeast Virginia establishment and did not have any sympathy for Iverson, his background or his talent. Seeing that Iverson requested a bench trial, this was crucial to his case. To add fuel to the fire, Allen Iverson flew in for the weekend from a tournament to be in Virginia for his trial. This played into the prosecution's hands and also upset the judge, both of whom saw this as evidence that Iverson did not respect the law. He was sentenced to a 5 -year jail term. This case sparked a tremendous amount of national attention. The case caught the interest of Bill Cosby and Spike Lee, who would be a fan and advocate of Iverson for many years. People all around the Newport News area started a movement to free Allen Iverson. He spent only four months in jail. Governor Douglas Wilder pardoned him. This move all but ended his political career and sparked another controversy. Wilder was also black, and white voters in Virginia viewed this move in a very racist light. Iverson was viewed now in much of white America as essentially a convicted felon who was out of prison only because a black man was governor of his state. Iverson got out conditionally, however. He had to adhere to a curfew and could not play basketball until he got his high school diploma. He could not accept a scholarship to the University of Kentucky but did get a scholarship once he completed his high school education in a learning center. During this time, he received his nickname, the answer. He was called such because his friends said he was the answer to basketball's conformity so to speak, people that conformed to this family friendly image, such as Charles Barkley, Isiah Thomas and most importantly, Michael Jordan, who was a childhood hero of his. He accepted a scholarship to Georgetown where John Thompson coached him. Thompson became somewhat of a father figure to him, but he was hard to manage, and the two had a workable but very turbulent relationship. Iverson completed only two years of his education where he became the top NBA draft pick in 1996. He was drafted by the ailing Philadelphia 76ers in 1996. Iverson is immersed in hip-hop culture. This made him an incredibly controversial figure in basketball. His clothing looked more like a gangster rappers than it did Michael Jordan's. On the court he seemed to embody the gangster rapper's image. He had an arm covering on one arm when he played, and also was one of the first players to have cornrows; a hairstyle up until that time was popular in prison. To make matters worse, he had an incredibly "in your face" style, which did not sit well with older players like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and others. Jordan said of him when Jordan's Bulls played Iverson's 76ers, that he had no respect for the game. Despite this, no one denied Iverson's talent. He could hustle the ball, could get around even the tallest players. He became known for his fast drives to the baskets and his ability to fake the ball in a move called the crossover. Spike Lee lost respect for him when he turned down his invitation to star in the film He Got Game (1998). As a very pointed move, Lee cast former collegiate rival Ray Allen in the part. The Sixers found themselves suddenly a respectable team. They acquired a new coach, the unusual Larry Brown. As a player in the ABA almost twenty years ago, Brown was also a young outsider fighting the system. Larry Brown now was a button-down-suit-and-tie coach. The two did not get along well at first; in fact, their relationship at best was serviceable. Brown was always unhappy with Iverson for not showing up to practice. Iverson insisted his game was pure inspiration, and he had little need for practice. The two rarely saw eye to eye. He received a tremendous number of awards in his short career. He was named rookie of the year in 1997, and on more than one occasion, he was an All NBA First Team, NBA All Star, was an All Star MVP, and received perhaps what was his crowning achievement to date when he was NBA MVP in 2001. That year, Iverson led his team to the NBA finals, but had a rough ride against Kobe Bryant and 'Shaquille ONeal's Lakers. They lost the championship in game five of the series. It was still quite an achievement because the Sixers had not been to the finals since Dr. J (Julius Erving) and Moses Malone led them to victory over the Lakers in 1983 in a 4-0 sweep. Iverson has over 20 tattoos. Each tattoo is a symbol of his life. One denotes the name of his group of friends he has known since childhood, Cru Thik, another who says the answer, another who is dedicated to his mom who is a strong presence as Sixers games, and many others. He married his high school sweetheart Tawanna Turner and they have two children. Won the gold medal at World University Games with the US Team in 1995. Named Big East Rookie of the Year 1995 Named Big East Defensive Player of the Year 1995, 1996. 1st pick in NBA Draft 1996 Was named MVP of the 2000-01 NBA season.

But St John's star began to fall in 1940s, so the actress vented her anger by killing off several jealous studio bigwigs who had been responsible for a smear campaign that had threatened to discredit and bankrupt her. Hollywood observers predicted far-reaching ramifications, but in an interesting turn of events, St John received neither the electric chair nor gaol time, but a six-day suspended sentence by the prosecuting judge (a closeted Myrtle St John fan from way back). Between 1940 and 1970 St John didn't make any films or public appearances, preferring to work behind the scenes with Ivar Godtharunz, the B-movie legend she married in a secret ceremony in Las Vegas in 1945. In 1971 TV producers begged St John to join the cast of then-struggling TV show, Grand Hostel, certain St John's presence would boost flagging ratings. Surprisingly, the then 66-year-old joined the cast on a six-month contract (which was extended considerably when her character Sabrina Morton Brockton St John Smythe became so popular). St John would remain with the show until 1983. St John returned to Hollywood in the 1990s after the death of her beloved husband Godtharunz, co-starring with Busty Bambini in Bustarella (1995), as Anita Santiago's mother in Mindy Anna Jones and the Raiders of Herrundeez (1995) and with Dan Druph-McGill in the international blockbuster Spider-Monkey Man (2001). St John now lives in the Virgin Islands, but is still making films. Next film on the boards is Lusting After Picasso (2005), in which audiences will see the 99-year-old up close and very personal: She will bare all in the film.

(More) A 2007 Titillating Horror SitCom
Where Psycho meets The Beaver
Leave It to Beaver hit the airwaves in 1957. The show from which these video clips were taken was the Pilot and never aired.
Jerry Mathers played Theodore 'Beaver' Cleaver
Barbara Billingsley was June Cleaver, his Mom.
Hugh Beaumont would be Ward and Tony Dow, Wally Cleaver, after the pilot. For the first, unaired show, Casey Adams played Ward. And another actor played Tony. Ken Osmond as Eddie Haskell did not show in the pilot, let alone Larry Mondello. I think I saw Dennis the Menace's neighbor in there too... !
So I asked myself, "Wouldn't it be interesting to blend Alfred Hitchcoc's Horror / Thriller into that sit com?"'
"No?" you say. Uh Ohhh - you must thus sit this one out for that's what I did anyway
I combined Anthony Perkins as crazy Cleaver neighbor, Norman Bates - along with Janet Leigh as the other beaver, Marion Crane.
Enjoy !

Plot summary for Psycho (1960)
Phoenix officeworker Marion Crane is fed up with the way life has treated her. She has to meet her lover Sam in lunch breaks and they cannot get married because Sam has to give most of his money away in alimony. One Friday Marion is trusted to bank $40,000 by her employer. Seeing the opportunity to take the money and start a new life, Marion leaves town and heads towards Sam's California store. Tired after the long drive and caught in a storm, she gets off the main highway and pulls into The Bates Motel. The motel is managed by a quiet young man called Norman who seems to be dominated by his mother. Written by Col Needham {col@imdb.com}
For Marion Crane, it's been quite an eventful day. The day before, she had stolen $40,000 from her employer's client, packed her bags and driven all day on her way to join her paramour several hundred miles away. Now, she is taking a relaxing hot shower after her long day's journey. The remoteness of the motel suit her purposes perfectly. The only sounds heard are the chirping of the crickets, the splashing of the water, and her humming contentedly as the hot needles of water caress her aching shoulders. Written by filmfactsman
Plot summary for Leave It to Beaver (1957)
The Cleavers are the 1950's 'All-American Family' in this 'feel-good' family sitcom. Parents Ward and June, and older brother Wally, try to keep Theodore ('the Beaver') out of trouble. However, Beaver continues to end up in one kind of jam or another. Unlike real life, these situations are always easily resolved to the satisfaction of all involved and the Beaver gets off with a few stern moralistic words of parental advice. Instigator and troublemaker Eddie Haskal is an older kid who always manages to avoid being caught.

Leave It to Beaver
Leave It to Beaver is an American television situation comedy about an idealized American family of the 1950s.
CBS first aired the show on October 4, 1957, but decided to drop it within a year. ABC picked it up and ran it for another five years, from October 2, 1958 to June 20, 1963. It was produced by Gomalco Productions (1957-1961) and by Kayro Productions (1961-1963), and distributed by Revue Studios.
Premise
The show is built around young Theodore Cleaver (Jerry Mathers) and the trouble he gets himself into while navigating his way through an often-incomprehensible, sometimes-illogical world. When he was a baby, his older brother Wally (Tony Dow) mispronounced "Theodore" as "Tweedor". Their firm-but-loving parents, Ward (Hugh Beaumont) and June Cleaver (Barbara Billingsley), felt "Beaver" sounded better.
Beaver's friends include the perpetually apple-munching Larry Mondello (Rusty Stevens) in the early seasons, and, later, Gilbert Bates (Stephen Talbot), as well as the old fireman, Gus (Burt Mustin). His sweet-natured-but-no-nonsense elementary school teachers are Miss Canfield (to whom Beaver declares his love in the episode entitled "Beaver's Crush") (Diane Brewster) and Miss Landers (Sue Randall); Mrs. Rayburn (Doris Packer) is the principal. In the early seasons, Beaver's nemesis in class is Judy Hensler (Jeri Weil).
His brother Wally is popular with both peers and adults, getting into trouble much less frequently. He letters in four sports and has little difficulty attracting girlfriends, among them Mary Ellen Rogers (Pamela Baird) and Julie Foster (Cheryl Holdridge). His pals include the awkward Clarence "Lumpy" Rutherford (Frank Bank) and smart aleck Eddie Haskell (Ken Osmond), the archetype of the two-faced wiseguy, a braggard among his peers and an obsequious yes man to the adults he mocks behind their backs. Eddie often picks on the Beaver.
The family lives in the fictional town of Mayfield. Beaver attends Grant Ave. Grammar School, and Wally, Mayfield High School (after graduating from Grant Ave. in season one).
Cast
=List of Leave It to Beaver cast members
Jerry Mathers as Theodore "Beaver" Cleaver. The casting directors noticed that Mathers was uneasy and asked him where he'd rather be. Mathers replied that he'd rather be at camp. That boyish youthfulness got Mathers the part of Beaver.[citation needed]
Tony Dow as Wally Cleaver
Hugh Beaumont as Ward Cleaver. Before he made Ward Cleaver his acting trademark, Beaumont sometimes played villains in film and television. Most familiarly, he played a former convict, Dan Grayson, struggling to go straight for the sake of his wife and son, in 1953's "The Big Squeeze" episode of Adventures of Superman, a few years before Beaver. He directed a number of Leave It to Beaver episodes in the last two seasons, including the final one, the retrospective "Family Scrapbook". Beaumont was an ordained Methodist minister, who from 1974 until his death, sold live Christmas trees.
Barbara Billingsley as June Cleaver. Billingsley has said that June Cleaver's wardrobe was more than a fashion statement. The pearl necklace hid neck shadows and high-heeled shoes were employed to offset the boys' growing height.
Ken Osmond as Eddie Haskell. Osmond became a cop, serving eighteen years with the Los Angeles Police Department.
Diane Brewster as Miss Canfield
Sue Randall as Miss Landers
Stephen Talbot as Gilbert Bates. Talbot works as a reporter for PBS' Frontline.
Rusty Stevens as Larry Mondello
Richard Correll as Richard Rickover
Stanley Fafara as Whitey Whitney
Jeri Weil as Judy Hensler
Burt Mustin as Gus the fireman
Frank Bank as Clarence "Lumpy" Rutherford
Richard Deacon as Fred Rutherford, Lumpy's pompous, demanding father and Ward Cleaver's equally pompous, smug co-worker. Deacon was working a second job for much of the life of Leave It to Beaver; he was concurrently Alan Brady's (Carl Reiner's) brother-in-law/producer and Buddy Sorrell's Morey Amsterdam's foil on The Dick Van Dyke Show.
Buddy Hart as Chester Anderson
Tiger Fafara as Tooey Brown
Pamela Baird as Mary Ellen Rogers
Cheryl Holdridge as Julie Foster
Cultural influence
Leave It to Beaver often aimed toward a moral lesson and is referenced even now as an emblem of simpler American times. Ward stated that his father "had a fine sense of values",[1] and if Ward himself sometimes seemed possessed of the gentility of a man of the cloth, it may have come from Beaumont's own background: he had become an ordained minister before he took up an acting career. June Cleaver, likewise, became a model of the archetypal suburban 1950s mother who wanted nothing more than to stay at home and take care of the family.
The show strongly promoted the importance of family. The recurring themes expounded parental expectations for children, while the moral messages stressed the importance of teaching children proper behavior. Proper parenting techniques and methods for resolving problems and achieving consensus were demonstrated.
The pervasive influence of the show was the subject of a theory proposed in 1965: that a prime cause of the Watts Riots was "Television Kitchens." A study was done of they types of kitchens that appeared in TV commercials for cleaning products and in sit-coms, like Leave It to Beaver. Those shown on TV belonged in houses worth far more than the average house at the time. But these kitchens were being shown over and over, day after day, to people whose own kitchens did not match up. The implicit comparison was obvious: "That's typical, and this is what I've got?" [2]
Episodes
The pilot episode, which aired on April 23, 1957, was entitled It's a Small World.[3] It featured Max Showalter as Ward Cleaver, and Paul Sullivan as Wally Cleaver. TBS re-aired the pilot on Sunday, October 4, 1987, to commemorate the show's 30th anniversary.
Syndication
After 234 episodes, Leave It to Beaver ceased first-run production; however, the show didn't stay off the air for very long: reruns were part of CBS affiliates' lineups in the mornings for several years to come. TBS showed it for many years in the late 1980s, and now it airs on TV Land—where it has been shown since July 1998. Today, NBC Universal Television owns the syndication rights and all properties related to the series.
Spinoffs
A made-for-television reunion movie, Still the Beaver, appeared in 1983. The main original cast appeared, except for Beaumont, who had died the previous year. Ward Cleaver was still a presence, however: the film's story used numerous flashbacks to the original show, as it followed young-adult Beaver's struggle to reconcile divorce and newly-minted single fatherhood, straining to cope by what his father might or might not have done, while facing the possibility of his widowed mother selling their childhood home. June Cleaver is later elected to the Mayfield City Council.
Its reception led to a new first-run, made-for-cable series, The New Leave It to Beaver (1985--1989), with Beaver and Lumpy Rutherford running Ward's old firm (where Lumpy's pompous, demanding father — played by Richard Deacon in the original series — had been the senior partner), Wally as a practicing attorney and expectant father, June having sold the old house to Beaver himself but living with him as a doting grandmother to Beaver's two small sons. Eddie Haskell runs his own contracting business and has a son, Freddie, who is every inch his father's son — right down to the dual-personality.
Feature film
1997's movie adaptation of the series starred Christopher McDonald as Ward, Janine Turner as June, Erik von Detten as Wally, and Cameron Finley as Beaver. It was panned by many critics, except for Roger Ebert, who gave it a three-star rating. It flopped at the box office, earning only $11,713,605. Original TV co-stars Barbara Billingsley, Ken Osmond, and Frank Bank made cameo appearances in the film.
The Cleaver house
The Cleavers' address for the first two seasons was 485 Mapleton Drive, Mayfield. In the season-one episode "Beaver's Old Friend", Beaver states that the teddy bear (the "old friend") was given to him by his aunt at their old house, which implies that the Mapleton Drive was their second home. The family moved to 211 Pine Street, also in Mayfield, in season three. This house can still be seen at Universal Studios, though with the facade built for the 1996 production of the Leave it to Beaver movie — the original facade sits in storage elsewhere on the Universal lot (it was replaced in 1988 by the Klopek house for the following year's The 'Burbs) and is not shown on the tour. In 1969, it was used as the house for another Universal-produced television hit, Marcus Welby, M.D..
Musical theme
The show's playfully-bouncy theme tune, which became as much of a show trademark as Beaver's baseball cap or Eddie Haskell's false obsequiousness, was "The Toy Parade," composed by David Kahn, Melvyn Leonard, and Mort Greene. For the final season, however, the song was given a jazz-like arrangement by veteran composer/arranger Pete Rugolo. The lyrics to the theme song are:
Hey! Here they come with a rum-tee tum they're having a toy parade.
A tin giraffe with a fife and drum is leading the kewpie parade.
A gingham cat in a soldier's hat is waving a Chinese fan,
A plastic clown in a wedding gown is dancing with Raggedy Ann.
Fee fie fiddle dee dee they're crossing the living room floor
Fee fie fiddle dee dee they're up to the dining room door.
They call a halt for a choc'late malt or cookies and lemonade
Then off they go with a ho ho ho right back to their toy brigade.

Urban legends
In the mid 1970s, Mathers appeared on The Tomorrow Show hosted by Tom Snyder. Snyder pointed out that he hadn't worked for a long time and that there was rumor going around that he had been killed "in the war in Southeast Asia". Mathers politely replied that he had heard that rumor and that he had no idea how it got started. The earliest appearance of the story in print was in a student newspaper at the University of Kansas in 1972. Later the author admitted that she had only heard the story from someone who had heard it a party in Omaha, Nebraska earlier that year. The paper printed a retraction but by then the story had swept the nation and this silly rumor joined the rest of the legends of Americana. The story was later attributed to a member of a defunct Omaha comedy improv group whose hobby was concocting outrageous stories and then convincing people they were true. "Beaver died in Vietnam"[1] was a classic urban legend, memorable for its juxtaposition of prelapsarian 1950s imagery with the chaos and violence of the 1960s.
Another urban legend was that actor Ken Osmond (Eddie Haskell) became porn star John Holmes. Holmes took Osmond's name and did several movies satirically under the name "Eddie Haskell". It started because there was some facial resemblance between the two men, which porn distributors exploited by using the name Eddie Haskell in advertising Holmes's films. "It was a pain in my butt for eleven years," says Osmond,[citation needed] who brought a defamation suit against porn houses, producers and distributors. Mr. Osmond launched a $25 million suit. The suit went all the way to the California Supreme Court. The court ruled for Mr. Holmes, saying the name was protected as a satire. This case set a precedent in the matter, and is still referred by other cases in California today.[4]
In a Rolling Stone interview with rock singer, Alice Cooper stated that he was "Eddie Haskell" as a child. He was speaking metaphorically, yet some readers interpreted him literally.[citation needed]

BY THE WAY I HAVN'T READ THE DESCRIPTION I JUST COPY AND PASTED IT FROM SOMEONE ELSES VIDEO. I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT THE DESCRIPTION SAYS
April 25, 1945. (4/25/ 4+2+5=11) Delegates from 50 nations met in San Francisco on April 25, 1945, for what was officially known as the United Nations Conference on International Organization. During a two-month period, they completed a charter consisting of 111 articles, based on the draft developed at Dumbarton Oaks. The charter was approved on June 25 (6/25=6+2+5=13)and signed the next day; it became effective on October 24, 1945, after ratification by a majority of the signatories. The bonds of the wartime alliance undoubtedly hastened agreement on establishing the new organization. In December 1945 the Congress of the United States invited the UN to establish its headquarters in the United States. The organization accepted and in August 1946 moved to a temporary location in Lake Success, New York. (New York was the 11th state to endorse the Constitution.) Later that year a site was purchased bordering the East River in New York City, (New York City is exactly 11 letters.) and plans for a permanent headquarters were drawn up.(97 Microsoft Encarta United Nations Origin)
Favorite Illuminati Symbol: The All-Seeing Eye. New World Order Currency: The all-seeing-eye on the dollar bill. Below the illuminati pyramid/eye symbol are the words: "Novus Ordo Seclorum," which can be translated as: "A new order of the ages."
The Serpent promised Adam and Eve that their eyes would "be opened" if they ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. The key word in this passage is eyes, which in Hebrew can be translated "knowledge." Opened can be translated "broadened." What the Serpent promised Adam and Eve was that knowledge would be broadened if they ate of the forbidden fruit.
But the most foreboding aspect of this scripture emerges from the fact that the Hebrew word for "eyes" is not plural, but singular. What the Serpent actually told Adam and Eve was that their "eye" would be broadened by knowledge.
The "eye" that Scripture wants us to consider is not the physical organ of sight, but the eye of the mind or the soul. This singular "eye" is called the "third eye" of clairvoyance in the Hindu religion, the eye of Osiris in Egypt, and the All-Seeing Eye in Freemasonry. (John Daniel, Scarlet and the Beast , Vol. III, pp. 6-7)
The all-seeing eye is the elite's favorite symbol. It represents the eye of Lucifer seeing all and is usually atop a pyramid, the symbol for a top-down command and control system of compartmentalization.
Many companies use the pyramid within their logos. James Walker, a 32º Mason, shares some facts with us about the above symbols:
13 leaves in the olive branch
13 bars and stripes in the shield
13 arrows in the right claw
13 letters in the "E Pluribus Unum" on the ribbon
13 stars in the green crest above
32 long feathers on its right wing representing the 32º in Freemasonry
13 granite stones in the Pyramid. (The 13 layers represent the 13 Illuminati bloodlines)
13 letters in Annuit Coeptis
It should also be noted that the Eagle has 32 feathers right wing, but 33 in its left wing. The 32 feathers representing the number of ordinary degrees of the Scottish Rite, and the 33 feathers representing the 33º of Freemasonry. The tail feathers number 9, the number of degrees in the York Rite. The eagle itself is a prominent icon of Masonry, being used extensively in the Scottish Rite.
Looking just above the eagles head you will see 13 pentagrams within a cloud. The pentagrams are arranged in the shape of a hexagram - or greater Seal of Solomon. The hexagram is a powerful tool used by pagans to invoke Satan. It is also the sign of Anti Christ with 6 points, 6 angles and 6 planes (666).
To the sorcerer, the hexagram is a powerful tool to invoke Satan, and is a sign of Antichrist. (6 points, 6 angles, 6 planes - 666) The 5 pointed pentagrams multiplied by the 13 stars equals 65, the same cabalistic number as mentioned above. This makes one wonder with whom or what, we are to dwell in unity!
The eagle replaced the Phoenix in 1841 as the national bird. The Phoenix has been a Brotherhood symbol since ancient Egypt. The Phoenix was adopted by the Founding Fathers (Freemasons) for use on the reverse of the first official seal of the United States after a design proposed by Charles Thompson, Secretary of the Continental Congress.

W = 6 So We will start there.

The Washington Monument is 555 feet high. In inches that = 6660 inches.
It also goes 20% of its height beneath the surface = 110 feet, But what do you want to bet me since this group of would be masons who are not really Masons they are just using Masonic guilds as a front for a Dark form of the Occult. Since the really like their 11's, I would be willing to bet you it actually goes a 111 feet beneath the surface. That would be 111 feet + 555 feet = 666 feet.
Have you read House Resolution 666. Log on the Library of Congress's website and put in H.R. 666. Interesting Legislation and also UnConstitutional.
How about in the Internal Revenue Code Book: Code # 666 which requires everyone to take the SS mark (social security) of course codes aren't Laws.
U.S. Highway 666 leads to Dulce, New Mexico where there is a massive underground facility. It is called Nightmare Hall. (for a good reason)
When the Boy Scouts of Amerika end their motto they say: Everything is A-OK in the Boy Scouts. Then they do the OK sign with their right hand and place it on their forehead. Do it. Then turn your hand around. Do you see the 666 your hand forms. Pretty sneaky little freaks aren't they. Remember in prophecy: the mark of the beast on your right hand or forehead.
There are 660 rooms in Windsor Castle. Did someone miss 6 rooms?
The Euro coin has 6 stars with 6 rods with 6 more stars = 666
The Eur a PEON Union has 13 countries or 13 colonies
The universal partition code, the bar code on all the products in Amerika, if you know the code the first number is always 6, the middle number is always 6, and the last number is always 6 666. The company was questioned about this and they said it was a coincidence. Yea Right!
The new bar code in Russia to track their people also = 666 ( that was even on ABC in Amerika)
See the 666 in these logos and pictures
Proctor & Gamble has filed lawsuits against several people believed to be responsible for spreading the allegations of devilism. But, in at least one of the lawsuits, the company raised eyebrows when the news came out that Proctor & Gamble was seeking exactly $66,600 in damages!

John F. Kennedy was killed over currency right next to the 33rd degree latitude line in the 11th month on the 22nd = 2 x 11 right when he entered the pyramid. Where they killed him, with a triangle hit of masonry, they erected an Egyptian obelisk with the eternal flame of masonry on top.
Ronald Reagan was shot in the 3rd month on the 30th day 3 + 30 = 33. George Bush Sr. aren't you a 33rd degree mason, and wouldn't you have benefited from Reagan's death? Were not your policies radically different from Reagan's. Didn't you ride his coat tails into office. You would have NEVER have been President if it wasn't for Reagan.
The Pentagon in D.C. is a symbol of the 33 degrees of masonry. Its angles are even at 33 degrees. A pentagram with a pentagram in the center. See the Eastern Star symbol. Women's sect of Masonry.
On August 6, 1945 at 8:15 a.m. United States B-29 bomber Enola Gay, on Mission No. 13, dropped an atomic bomb called "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, Japan right next to the 33rd degree latitude line. This was "Day One" of a new age, the Nuclear Age. It was also 33 days after 169th 13 x 13 anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
In 1935, Paul Foster Case wrote: "Since the date, 1776, is placed on the bottom course of the pyramid [on the Great Seal of the U.S.], and since the number 13 has been so important in the history of the United States and in the symbols of the seal, it is not unreasonable to suppose that the 13 courses of the pyramid may represent 13 time-periods of 13 years each." The 13 time-periods of 13 years each equaled 169 years. From July 4, 1776 to July 4, 1945 equaled 169 years. From July 4, 1945 to August 6, 1945 (Hiroshima bomb) was 33 days. By the 33rd President.

1946 On August 19.5, 1946, Bill Clinton, the 42nd President, was born in Hope, Arkansas, at the 33rd Parallel. Also Bill Clinton in his speech accepting the democratic parties nomination in 1992 gave credit to his mother and Carol Quigly his college professor. Carol Quigly wrote a book called "Tragedy and Hope" , where he showed the secret hand that controled Amerika's government. Your the Tragedy, but I guarantee that Bill Clinton has no HOPE!

Apollo 11 launched in the 7th month. Apollo is a pagan god, Roman Empire. Columbia module columbia route word in latin is columba, a pagan god Roman Empire. Saturn rocket booster Saturn is a pagan god, Roman Empire. Saturn in old latin is the same word as SATAN. Remember the metaphor in the Bible of the Tower of Babel. Where Satan was erecting a tower to try to climb out of hell to get into Heaven. Earth - Hell, Heaven, The heavens. Somebody was trying to leave this earth, and something was holding them back. Now with Apollo 11 we have the Satan rocket booster lifting off from earth(hell) and the tower that disconnected form the Satan rocket booster had on one side a 6, the top of it a 6, and on the other side a 6 = 666. You can verify this by watching the documentary that is available on www.afunnythinghappenedonthewaytothemoon .com and www.moontruth.com
Somebody was trying to leave this earth..........and something was holding them BACK! They never went to the moon with Apollo 11. It was a diversion tactic to divert your attention away from the civil rights movement and the Vietnam war protest. There was a lot of Anti-establishment activity at this time.

``It comes down to a risk-benefit ratio,'' Robert Rich, president of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology told the newspaper. ``I think the risk of forgone advances is much greater than the information getting into the wrong hands.'' Ronald Atlas, president-elect of the American Society of Microbiology, (about genetic manipulation) told the Times a White House proposal to eliminate sections of articles that would allow other laboratories to replicate results ``takes apart the whole foundation of science.'' The Bush administration has asked the society to limit ''potentially dangerous'' information in the 11 journals it publishes, according to the Times.

October 16, 2000: Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan (D). Carnahan, his son and an aide were killed when their small plane crashed in bad weather in Missouri. According to Reuters, Sen. Paul Wellstone's death was eerily similar to the circumstances surrounding the October 2000 plane crash death of another Democratic Senate hopeful, Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan. His plane crashed in bad weather in that state killing him shortly before that year's election. He was elected after his death and his widow was appointed to take his seat.

August 13, 1989: Mississippi Rep. Larkin Smith (R). Pilot error in hazy conditions was ruled the probable cause of the plane crash that killed U.S. Rep. Larkin Smith and his pilot, according to a federal report. According to AP: The National Transportation Safety Board report indicated that pilot Chuck Vierling, who was not rated to fly on instruments, probably lost control after encountering conditions that required them. Vierling, 58, of Gulfport had expressed concern about the haziness before leaving, the report said. Vierling had flown Smith to Hattiesburg on August 13. On the return flight to Gulfport, the Cessna 152 crashed into woods near New Augusta (caesar) in southeastern Mississippi.

The 1947-1948 Annual Report of the tax-exempt Laura Spelman Rockefeller Fund revealed: "In 1938, a new building at 1313 East Sixtieth Street, Chicago (constructed under grants from the Spelman Fund) was completed to provide adequate quarters for the use and occupancy of the national governmental organizations. This building has come to be known as '1313'. " An agency known as the Public Administration Clearing House was set up Endorsement of the Public Administration Clearing House came from the National Municipal League, the American Municipal Association, etc. "
The Public Administration Clearing House manages the building at 1313 E. Sixtieth Street, Chicago." Further financing for the "1313" has been provided by the Carnegie Corporation, the Julius Rosenwald (Sears Roebuck & Company) Fund, and the Russell Sage Foundation. In his article in the January 1973 issue of AMERICAN OPINION magazine Gary Allen said that the primary funding now comes from the Ford Foundation which has "poured tens of millions of dollars into scores, possibly hundreds of regional government projects" promoted by "1313".

In the Bible: "And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah. 'Hear my voice: ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt. If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold." (Genesis, 4:23-24) This Lamech was a descendant of the first murderer, Cain, and father of the twins Tubal-Cain, a boy, and Naamah, a girl. Tubal-Cain, "an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron", is a favorite of Luciferian Free Masons, who consider him to be the forefather of Hiram Abiff. Hiram Abiff, of course, is the supposed architect of Solomon's Temple and the central hero of Masonic mythology.

The ground breaking ceremony of the Pentagon (symbol of the 33 degrees) was on September 11, 1941. on the 77th degree longitude. What was the 60 year anniversary of that?
George Bush Sr. gave the speech before congress saying: "It's more than a big idea........it's a new idea..........It's a NEW WORLD ODER!" (Bushite, you couldn't come up with new idea if it slapped you in the ASS!) That speech was given on September 11, 1991. What was the 10 year anniversary of that?
When did the small cessna (that was flown by remote control) hit the White House?
September 11, 1994. What was the 7 year anniversary of that?
So we will add 60 + 10 + 7 = 77
What were the flight numbers on September 11, 2001. Flight 175 = 1 + 7 + 5 = 13, Flight 11, flight 77, Flight 93 left gate 17. And you all actually thought that radical Muslims with plastic knives and box cutters did this. Then you must be brainwashed. Try Masons. Flight 77 and 11 never hit any buildings. A small commuter jet hit the first tower and a small commuter jet hit the Pentagon. Watch the tape that was on PBS again. Those 2 planes were landed in a remote location. The pilots of flight 93 got back control over the remote control so they had to shoot it down, or they could have testified that there plane was taken over REMOTELY. There were no highjackers on those planes. That is why the wreckage outside of Pittsburgh was spread out over 7 to 10 square miles. That was right in the Pittsburgh newspapers. That is not a ground collision. That is a mid air explosion.
One of the planes had 93 passengers and crew
Another had 58 passengers 5+8=13 and 7 crew
each plane had 7 crew.
Deena Burnette (who's husband was on flight 93 says her husband called her from the plane at 9:20 a.m. 9+2=11 Then she called the F.B.I. That was 2 hours before the plane went down. How long does it take to scramble F-16's? More deceit
A passenger called Todd Beamer on Flight 93 supposedly placed a 13 minute telephone call. To a phone operator. Who in the hell would spend the minutes of their life talking to a phone operator. Da get me my wife, father, mother, friend. Anyone but YOU!
It's A LIE!
At 9:42 EST, Mark Bingham phoned his mother, Alice. "Mom? This is Mark Bingham," the voice said. She knew he was flustered. "I want to let you know that I love you. I'm on a flight from Newark to San Francisco and there are three guys who have taken over the plane and they say they have a bomb."
Who would say "mom this is (and say their first and last name) How Stupid!
The phone calls are such a Joke! One guy said there were 3 hijackers another said 4. Da can you count. The Todd Beamer even said 27 passengers were prodded to the back of the plane. WHAT DID HE DO? COUNT THEM?
While Todd Beamer was on the phone with Lisa Jefferson, Tom Burnett called his wife again. "They're taking airplanes and hitting landmarks all up and down the East Coast," Deena told him. "OK," he replied. "We're going to do something. I'll call you back."
That's not true. They had only hit the World Trade Towers. Get some CIA Agents that aren't stupid PLEASE.
Lyz Glick was still on the phone with Jeremy. He told his wife to take care of Emmy, their 12-week-old daughter, and "have a good life." Lyz and Jeremy spoke of their love for each other. "I need you to be happy," he told her, "and I will respect any decisions that you make." Then he told her the passengers were taking a vote: Should they try to take back the plane?
What did they do: Vote in front of the Hijackers? And why would the Hijackers let them place phone calls to begin with. Did they want to get shot down or something? Da!
Sandy Bradshaw, one of the flight attendants, phone her husband, Phil. "Have you heard what's going on? My flight has been hijacked by three guys with knives," she said. "Who was flying the plane?" Phil asked his wife. "I don't know who's flying the plane or where we are," she said. Sandy Bradshaw, who was trained never to spill hot coffee on a paying customer, slipped into the airplane's galley and began filling pitchers with boiling water
Boy they really had control of these passengers......... Didn't They!
Their making phone calls....filling pitcher with boiling water. Hey when did she get the chance to boil water. I didn't know they had stove tops on airplanes.
Lou Nacke is the only member of the group who attacked the terrorists who is not known to have made a phone call, although his wife, Amy, did have a message on her answering machine that contained only noise and a click.
How do they know he was involved then? Da!
From the back of Flight 93, CeeCee Lyles, another flight attendant, reached her husband, Lorne. "Babe, my plane's been hijacked," she said. "Stop joking," he said. "No, babe, I wouldn't joke like that. I love you. Tell the boys I love them." The pair prayed. In the background, Lorne Lyles could hear what he now believes was the sound of men planning a counterattack. "They're getting ready to force their way into the cockpit," she told him
Oh, he could hear them in the background on the phone, but the so-called hijackers could not hear them planning this so called counter attack. Yea Right.
When he had finished relaying his love for his family through Lisa Jefferson, Todd Beamer put down the phone, still connected with the outside world. His last words were: "Are you guys ready? Let's roll."
Why don't you just Yell it out so the hijackers know what your up to Todd.
He was probably on a phone at 7-11
Honor Wainio was still on the line with her stepmother. "I need to go," she said. "They're getting ready to break into the cockpit. I love you. Goodbye."
Getting ready to break into the cockpit? What about the other hijackers?
Come on main stream media. Do I look like I have DOLT written on my forehead?
There wasn't any passengers on those planes! WAKE UP!
George Junior Boy announced a national state of mourning on Sept. 11 for 11 days.

Breaking the laws of the land
Causing a Great Depression

Reigning Hell upon the Earth
Harming his people in turn
Satan rejoiced with his birth
When will his people learn
Yet maybe not all is dark
History has seen his fall
The one eyed man has found his mark
Riding the truth he will call
For the King with little wisdom
Looks not to the past
Seeing only his Kingdom
A vision THAT WILL NOT LAST!
In the Kingdom of the Blind
The One-Eyed Man will be King
And the Veil will be Lifted
So that the Blind will See.

Garway Church dovecot
[Inside there are 666 holes..]
Just over the wall from the wall can be seen the columbarium or dovecote - see ill. 38, which was built in the time of the Templars but had fallen into disrepair by the time the Hospitallers took over, this is confirmed in an account of the property written by John-de-la-Haye in 1313. Although very feint now, there is a Latin inscription over the door which in The Gentleman's Magazine of 1907, p.635, the Reverend John Webb stated read in abbreviated form: The full version is, " Anno Domini millesimo trecentesimo vicesimo sexto factum fuit istud columbare fratrem Ricardum", which in translation reads, "In the year of our Lord 1326 this dovecote was built by Richard", - see ill. 39, this is thought to be somewhat of an exaggeration and probably means that he repaired the dovecote in 1326. John Webb also remarks that on his visit he also noticed another inscription in the interior of the dovecote which read, "GILBE RTVS", whoever Gilbertus was remains a mystery, perhaps he helped Brother Richard in the restoration of the building? Webb describes other stones carved with, "the double cross of the Templars, accompanied in one instance with the letter R, of the scriptorial form". The upper part of the roof is 'dished' which allowed rainwater to feed through an opening into a round cistern on the floor, this then supplied the pigeons with drinking and washing water, Bond, 2004, p.151. Inside there are 20 tiers each consisting of 33 nesting holes which gives a total of 666 holes.
The Knights Templar were given land in Llangarewi by King Henry II in 1180. These warrior monks immediately rebuilt the Saxo-Celtic Church in the usual circular nave and square chancel style, imitating the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. The chancel survives but the circular nave has only been revealed through excavation. The once detached fortress-like tower was later built as a place of safety during Welsh border raids. The Knights had their Commandery on the site of the present Church Farm and the income from this Manor helped pay for many Crusading campaigns in the Holy Land. The place was so important that it even gained a visit from the Order's Grand master, James de Molay, in 1294.
By 1308, however, the Templars had been suppressed and Garway was given to the associated Order of Knights Hospitaller from Dinmore. Due to subsidence, they replaced the circular nave with the present one and also built the dovecote, still to be seen nearby. The Hospitallers residency was a time of hot dispute with the Bishop of Hereford from whom they claimed full independence. Things reached a head in 1523, when they refused, yet again, to pay the prelate his dues and thus found themselves excommunicated!
Garway always held the right of Sanctuary whereby criminals could find save haven in the church before fleeing abroad. However, during the Dissolution of Monmouth Priory by Henry VIII's commissioners in 1536, the last Prior, Richard Talybush fled to the sanctuary of Garway, only to find that the King's men had arrived before him and already seized all the preceptory's rights and possessions!
Mandela's prison number seems to have morphed from 4664 to 46664
There was a "The 4664 Concert"
Katie says: "I did a Nelson Mandela gig called 4664 which raised the awareness of Aids, and I was asked by Queen the band, who are my heroes, to sing one of their songs Too Much Love Will Kill You, with them.
Following the inaugural 4664 concert held in South Africa last November, it has been announced Spain will host a follow-up in August.
so weird that it is now 46664 and he must back that change:
"46664 is Nelson Mandela's campaign to help raise Global awareness of AIDS/HIV. 46664 launched last Autumn by Mandela in London aims to highlight the emergency of AIDS/HIV through unique live events and music related initiatives."
Bar Code of the Beast
"And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, unless he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom; Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred sixty six."
(Revelation 13:16-18)
The Ministry of Taxation has revealed plans to introduce individual tax numbers for every citizen. The Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church says the project is evil, for the bar code used by tax officials contains the fiendish number, 666. The Synod has proposed that a national electronic language be formed.
The Russian Orthodox Church understands that the system of tax collection must be improved, but gathering information about individuals without their consent breeches article 24 of the Russian Constitution. Although the clergy does not oppose the existing passport, pension and conscription apparatus, they suspect that the proposed tax collection system is harmful for the common people.
Russia's Holy Synod has declared that, "many Christians revere their names given them at baptism as holy and consider it undignified to be given new numerical "names" by the government."
Some priests are saying that acquiring an Individual Taxpayer Number (ITN) constitutes a sin, and unless believers repent, they would be denied Holy Communion. Although the Synod disapproves of such statements, its main concern is the symbols used in the new registration system, which has already been introduced in some places. The pilot social welfare cards feature three bar codes, each of which includes the number 6. Clergymen believe the codes contain the number of the Antichrist, 666, mentioned in the Apocalypse of St. John the Evangelist (13: 16-18). Having consulted with experts, the prelates have concluded that there is no great necessity to use these particular bars. Their conclusion is that "the authors of the global bar code system, widely used today in statistics, trade and many other spheres, have consciously or unconsciously chosen a symbol which is insulting and disturbing to Christians. At the very least, it looks like an outrageous mockery."
Orthodox prelates suggest that the government get rid of the "blasphemous" symbol by "changing the international system of the symbols involved. If this proves impossible, we must create an alternative national electronic language".
As Russian citizens, another aspect worrying clergymen is that, "Soon those who do not have a tax code or plastic card could be completely deprived of social and even medical aid. If this happens, there will be every reason to doubt the existence of equality and freedom of conscience, so actively promoted by modern civilization. Therefore we insist on having an alternative system of personal registration for social, medical, insurance and other aid".
Tomorrow (Friday), Gazeta.Ru will find out whether the Minister of Taxation Aleksandr Pochinok has been excommunicated for his blasphemous deeds.
[The great lie monger. Tony Blair is a very obvious Illuminati shill. The only question is--is he a Manchurian premier, one of them, or a mixture? It is easy to see this in his actions and words. He pushes Elite Fascist agendas--GM foods, Nuclear power, Fluoridation (bit of a give away that one Tony), ID cards, medical records open to all NHS employees (ie everyone), DNA database for all, satellite surveillance for all cars, immigration overload , 24 hour drinking and Supercasinos everywhere (apart from the money side this could be a way to trash society making ID cards look an option to clean it up, similar to gun control shootings designed to remove weapons from the population), tied Police up with well over 50% of their time now taken up with paperwork, trashed education, foot and mouth fiasco, and spouts Medical Mafia propaganda word for word (eg Vivisection, MMR is safe lie, Authority lie, Anti-science lie), and Wars---he has the blood of more than 1 million Iraqis on his hands not to mention Depleted Uranium, Afghanistan (that freed up the main Elite drug source again), Bosnia, and turning a blind eye to numerous genocides around the world, like Rwanda. Also the greatest white collar bandit of all time, stealth tax record--now well over 50% tax rate--latest wheeze is more tax using global warming as excuse. "New Labour" is a pseudonym for Satanism with the Dome (set to be a Casino) its Temple. If you want to see the Devil in sheep's clothing have a look at one of our ministers flogging gambling! What next, the Dome as a Temple to Pornography as well? All in all, just a regular sort of guy!]
If you add up the numbers of his name using the Chaldean System you get 3+5+7+2+3+5 for George, +6+1+3+2+5+2 for Walker, and +2+6+3+5 for Bush, which adds up to a total of 60 = 6+0 = 6. Once again the number is still 6..
Now if you add up the numbers of his full name using this system, according to the table above you get 7+5+6+9+7+5 for George, +5+1+3+2+5+9 for Walker, and +2+3+1+8 for Bush, which all adds up to a total of 78 = 7+8 = 15 = 1+5 = 6. FOX=666
If you add up the name 'George Bush' in Hebrew letters it comes out:
G = 3 (gimel)
e = 5 (heh)
o = 70 (ayin)
r = 200 (resh)
g = 3 (gimel)
e = 5 (heh)
B = 2 (beth)
u = 70 (ayin)
s = 300 (shin)
h = 8 (cheth)
total = 666 (Antichrist).
World Wide Web=WWW. W=87=15=6
But hold on, because we're not through yet. ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. The computer you're using to read this can only understand numbers, and ASCII is the numerical representation of a character such as 'B' or else an action of some sort. If you add up Bush's name in ASCII, you get 71+101+111+114+103+101 for George, 87+97+108+107+101+114 for Walker, and 66+117+115+104 for Bush, which adds up to a total of 1617 = 1+6+1+7 = 15 = 1+5 = 6.

[666 is the main Satanic number and Vaccination adds up to 666 with this system. There are no coincidences, so ponder that one. When you look behind the propaganda you will find that the Elite are all Satanists. Sacrifice seems to be a big part of Satanism, and 300 million animals are sacrificed every year to get Allopathic medicines on the market, such as vaccines. One animal test is the Mouse toxicity test. If you look at the antics of the AMA over the last century you couldn't ask for a better example of a Satanic group, suppressed the cause of most diseases (eg Alzheimer's) and the cures for most diseases such as cancer and heart disease. They make Pol Pot look like a choir boy. Vaccination never saved one single life but is the leading cause of child death (killing 25,000 babies in 1880 at the height of smallpox vaccination) and disease, eg most autism, asthma, diabetes etc. Its partners in crime also shine in the Satanic stakes---millions addicted to Benzodiazepines, with millions of children to follow with Ritalin, while the main cause of AIDS is pharma drugs. To get a glimpse of the real nature of the vaccine hierarchy see Covert vaccine agendas and Human Experiments. You couldn't make it up. It looks like a classic pact wit the Devil.]
"...the word 'vaccination' numerologically adds up to 666 -- the Antichrist...simply assign multiples of six to each letter of the alphabet (A = 6, B = 12, C = 18, and so on ), and add up the numbers relating to the letters, and, hey presto, 666. (spooky, eh?)' Whilst the combination of dollar-lust, arrogance and incompetence -- endemic within the medical/pseudo-scientific orthodoxy and their media fronts -- could, alone, explain the continued survival and expansion of vaccination, a hidden agenda must be suspected. It is debatable that Jenner's single fraudulent experiment could have evolved into the means by which the destruction and mutation -- physical, mental, emotional, spiritual -- of homo sapiens could be affected, without a Grand Plan."---- Vaccination Assault on The Species--Patrick Rattigan ND
"Take live viruses and germs, mix them with carcinogenic substances, toxic substances, because these vaccines, these germs, are mixed with formaldehyde and Thimerosal, which is a mercury derivative, then brew them in animal organs and inject them into healthy babies. That sounds more like satanic ritualism to me than it does a way of achieving health."--Neil Miller (Vaccine Roulette p 13)
"The satanic secrets and deeds done in the gloom of night shall be laid bare and manifest before the peoples of the world."----Baha'u'llah (1817-1893) [Source]
So, more than that, vaccines are used to test biological weapons. (In my research) I found that vaccines are used to spread diseases. They are used for targeted genocides. An Interview With Guylaine Lanctot, M.D. By Kenneth & Dee Burke.
Most people have settled their minds on this issue without getting the facts. When the real facts are shown, it blows people's minds. Some of the easiest and everyday items to show people, are simply a dollar bill--with its Illuminati symbol on the back, and a can of vegetables which has a bar code on it (Less)

14, 04:33, 2007-08-12 08:18:03 Description: Allen Iverson scored 37 points in his MVP Season vs. Orlando Magic
One of the most controversial Basketball players of all time, Allen Iverson is one of the most loved and hated figures in (More) Allen Iverson scored 37 points in his MVP Season vs. Orlando Magic
One of the most controversial Basketball players of all time, Allen Iverson is one of the most loved and hated figures in Basketball. Born Allen Ezail Iverson in Hampton, Virginia, he grew up very poor to a struggling mother and a father who deserted him. Growing up, he was very athletic, playing football and basketball throughout most of his education prior to college. Iverson began focusing on basketball at his mother's insistence, despite wanting to be a football player. He proved to be a talented basketball player. At Bethel High School in Newport News, he began his high school basketball career. He developed a reputation of talking a lot and being uncoachable. To say he had a rough childhood is quite an understatement. On one of his places of residence, he walked through knee-deep sewage daily. During one summer, he witnessed the death of almost ten of his closest friends. Iverson first came to the national spotlight in 1993 in a controversial incident surrounding violent events at a bowling alley in Newport News. While the events that happened there will never be fully known, the generally accepted story is that some white students got into an argument with Iverson and his friends. The first question surrounding the event is whether he started it or if the white kids started it. Also, the question surrounded whether or not he assaulted a white woman by hitting her over the head with a chair. The prosecution insisted that surveillance tapes undoubtedly showed Iverson was the culprit, but in reality the tapes showed nothing conclusive. Two factors did him in at his hearing; first of all, two white people said they saw him assault the girl. Secondly, the judge was from the very conservative southeast Virginia establishment and did not have any sympathy for Iverson, his background or his talent. Seeing that Iverson requested a bench trial, this was crucial to his case. To add fuel to the fire, Allen Iverson flew in for the weekend from a tournament to be in Virginia for his trial. This played into the prosecution's hands and also upset the judge, both of whom saw this as evidence that Iverson did not respect the law. He was sentenced to a 5 -year jail term. This case sparked a tremendous amount of national attention. The case caught the interest of Bill Cosby and Spike Lee, who would be a fan and advocate of Iverson for many years. People all around the Newport News area started a movement to free Allen Iverson. He spent only four months in jail. Governor Douglas Wilder pardoned him. This move all but ended his political career and sparked another controversy. Wilder was also black, and white voters in Virginia viewed this move in a very racist light. Iverson was viewed now in much of white America as essentially a convicted felon who was out of prison only because a black man was governor of his state. Iverson got out conditionally, however. He had to adhere to a curfew and could not play basketball until he got his high school diploma. He could not accept a scholarship to the University of Kentucky but did get a scholarship once he completed his high school education in a learning center. During this time, he received his nickname, the answer. He was called such because his friends said he was the answer to basketball's conformity so to speak, people that conformed to this family friendly image, such as Charles Barkley, Isiah Thomas and most importantly, Michael Jordan, who was a childhood hero of his. He accepted a scholarship to Georgetown where John Thompson coached him. Thompson became somewhat of a father figure to him, but he was hard to manage, and the two had a workable but very turbulent relationship. Iverson completed only two years of his education where he became the top NBA draft pick in 1996. He was drafted by the ailing Philadelphia 76ers in 1996. Iverson is immersed in hip-hop culture. This made him an incredibly controversial figure in basketball. His clothing looked more like a gangster rappers than it did Michael Jordan's. On the court he seemed to embody the gangster rapper's image. He had an arm covering on one arm when he played, and also was one of the first players to have cornrows; a hairstyle up until that time was popular in prison. To make matters worse, he had an incredibly "in your face" style, which did not sit well with older players like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and others. Jordan said of him when Jordan's Bulls played Iverson's 76ers, that he had no respect for the game. Despite this, no one denied Iverson's talent. He could hustle the ball, could get around even the tallest players. He became known for his fast drives to the baskets and his ability to fake the ball in a move called the crossover. Spike Lee lost respect for him when he turned down his invitation to star in the film He Got Game (1998). As a very pointed move, Lee cast former collegiate rival Ray Allen in the part. The Sixers found themselves suddenly a respectable team. They acquired a new coach, the unusual Larry Brown. As a player in the ABA almost twenty years ago, Brown was also a young outsider fighting the system. Larry Brown now was a button-down-suit-and-tie coach. The two did not get along well at first; in fact, their relationship at best was serviceable. Brown was always unhappy with Iverson for not showing up to practice. Iverson insisted his game was pure inspiration, and he had little need for practice. The two rarely saw eye to eye. He received a tremendous number of awards in his short career. He was named rookie of the year in 1997, and on more than one occasion, he was an All NBA First Team, NBA All Star, was an All Star MVP, and received perhaps what was his crowning achievement to date when he was NBA MVP in 2001. That year, Iverson led his team to the NBA finals, but had a rough ride against Kobe Bryant and 'Shaquille ONeal's Lakers. They lost the championship in game five of the series. It was still quite an achievement because the Sixers had not been to the finals since Dr. J (Julius Erving) and Moses Malone led them to victory over the Lakers in 1983 in a 4-0 sweep. Iverson has over 20 tattoos. Each tattoo is a symbol of his life. One denotes the name of his group of friends he has known since childhood, Cru Thik, another who says the answer, another who is dedicated to his mom who is a strong presence as Sixers games, and many others. He married his high school sweetheart Tawanna Turner and they have two children.
