Boulevard of Broken Songs Mash Up Video

This is a great song mash up mainly between Green Day’s ‘Boulevard of Broken Dreams’ and Oasis’ ‘Wonderwall’. But if you listen closely you can hear elements from loads of other songs. I picked out some Aerosmith, Eminem and Travis.
Enjoy it!

Ryan Fitzgerald – The man with 5000 calls – video response

This is a video response to his first video, and look what he is saying, a bunch of freaks called him! He is very tired and i think he had enough…

“First of all, I’m not gay….”

Police brutality

I think this is Iran or Egypt! I don’t care what country is that, i think this isn’t the way they should treat people!
This movie was posted today on youtube.com

I was curious to see how many videos actually contained activity that people would tag as Police Brutality, and I was surprise by not only the amount of hits, but the geography also.
Take a look and this is only in english!

SOUTHBRIDGE, Mass. — Ryan Fitzgerald is unemployed, lives with his father and has a little bit of time on his hands.

SOUTHBRIDGE, Mass. — Ryan Fitzgerald is unemployed, lives with his father and has a little bit of time on his hands.
So, he decided to offer his ear, to anyone who wants to call:

After posting a video with his cell phone number on YouTube on Friday, the 20-year-old told The Boston Globe he has received more than 5,000 calls and text messages.

Fitzgerald said he wanted to “be there,” for anyone who needed to talk. “I never met you, but I do care,” a spiky-haired Fitzgerald said into the camera on his YouTube posting.

He planned to take and return as many calls he could, but on Monday at 5 a.m., his T-Mobile cell phone payment will begin charging him for his generosity when he is no longer eligible for free weekend minutes.

“I haven’t quite figured out what I’m going to do about it,” he said. “Come Monday, no way I’m going to just hang up on people and say, ‘I don’t have the minutes.’”

Fitzgerald, who said people consider him “easy to talk to,” was inspired by Juan Mann. YouTube video clips of Mann offering “Free Hugs” to strangers became wildly popular on the user-controlled Internet site.

“Some people’s own mothers won’t take the time to sit down and talk with them and have a conversation,” Fitzgerald said. “But some stranger on YouTube will. After six seconds, you’re not a stranger anymore, you’re a new kid I just met.”

JOKESTARTERS:

  • I hear the best time to call this dude is 3:45am Eastern Time.
  • On a related note, I am inviting everyone over to my house to chillax. My address is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, DC. Just jump over the fence and run as fast as you can to the door – it’s always open.

The Real Hero of Virginia Tech – Liviu Librescu


You are surely aware of the tragic shooting that occurred at the Virginia Tech campus. One of the victims was a Jewish professor. Liviu Librescu–a 75-year old Romanian-Israeli survivor of the Holocaust–used his body to block the classroom door and enable others to escape, sacrificing his life for those of his students.

Liviu Librescu was among the thirty-two people who were murdered in the Virginia Tech massacre on April 16, 2007. He was killed during a class in the Norris Hall Engineering Building by a student (Cho Seung-hui, 23). Librescu held the door of his classroom shut while Cho was attempting to enter it; although he was shot through the door, he was able to prevent the gunman from entering the classroom until his students had escaped through the windows.

A number of Librescu‘s students have called him a Hero because of his actions, with one student, Asael Arad, saying that all the professor’s students “Lived Because of Him”. Librescu’s son, Joe, said he had received e-mails from several students who said he had saved their lives and regarded him as a hero whilst many newspapers also reported him as the hero of the massacre. His death came on Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Martyrs and Heroes Remembrance Day, also known as Holocaust Memorial Day. Librescu is survived by his wife, Marilena (née Semian), and his sons Joseph and Lionel. According to the family wishes, the body will be flown to Israel, where he will be buried.

Celebrate Earth Day with Google

Have you wondered why Google Logo is designed like this in this special day?

On April 22, 1970, 20 million people across America celebrated the first Earth Day. It was a time when cities were buried under their own smog and polluted rivers caught fire. Now Earth Day is celebrated annually around the globe. Through the combined efforts of the U.S. government, grassroots organizations, and citizens like you, what started as a day of national environmental recognition has evolved into a world-wide campaign to protect our global environment.

Earth Day is important because it reminds us to look at the problems of our environment. We need to make plans to recycle materials that are recyclable and to clean up
our rivers, streams, lakes and oceans. Pollution is causing danger to the air we breathe, our
soil, and our water sources. Industries, automobiles, and others are releasing dangerous
smoke in our atmosphere and the air we breathe. This can cause us health problems.
Each of us must do our part to recycle and reuse products instead of throwing them away.
Earth Day is now celebrated each year on April 22nd. Think about what you can do to celebrate Earth Day this year. We can all do something.

The significance of the date:

* April 22 is the birthday of American television star Eddie Albert, an early environmental activist.
* April 22 is also the birthday of Julius Sterling Morton, the founder of Arbor Day, a national tree-planting holiday started in 1872. Arbor Day became a legal holiday in Nebraska in 1885, to be permanently observed on April 22. According to the National Arbor Day Foundation “the most common day for the state observances is the last Friday in April . . . but a number of state Arbor Days are at other times to coincide with the best tree planting weather.” It has since been largely eclipsed by the more widely observed Earth Day, except in Nebraska, where it originated.
* April 22 1970 was the 100th birthday of Vladmir Lenin. Time reported that some suspected the date was not a coincidence, but a clue that the event was “a Communist trick” – then quoted a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution complaining that, “Subversive elements plan to make American children live in an environment that is good for them.” J. Edgar Hoover may have found the Lenin connection intriguing. The idea that the date was chosen to celebrate Lenin‘s centenary still persists in some quarters, although Lenin was never noted for his environmental credentials.
