"Paul is Dead" clues from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
|
|---|
There were many "clues" to the myth that Beatles bassist Paul McCartney had died and been repleaced in 1966 in their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The abundance of these clues in this album was mostly due to its highly detailed cover. right|300px|thumb|Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band CoverAccording to believers, the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band cover shows a group of mourners standing in front of a freshly dug grave. Around the "grave", there are several symbols, including a doll with a cracked head represents McCartney's fatal injury; a toy car on one knee and a bloody left-handed driving glove (Paul is left-handed). Within the flowers, comprising the three-stringed, left-handed guitar shape, the word "PAUL" followed by a question mark can be seen. Lastly, Paul appears to be the tallest in this picture but in real life he is not the tallest, suggesting that the person in the picture is not really him. McCartney is the only person holding a wooden instrument, representing his coffin, and the instrument is the only one that is black, representing death. The instrument is a cor anglais, the only instrument shown on the cover which is not used in a marching band. Paul's "true" instrument would have been the tuba, which is sitting unused at feet of the wax figure of Ringo. McCartney is the only person with a hand over his heart, a religious symbol for blessing the dead. There is also an open hand immediately above Paul's head. In some cultures this supposedly represents that the person is dead or about to die. "1 ONE I X HE ^ DIE" If a mirror is laid horizontally across the words "LONELY HEARTS" on the drum on the cover of Sgt. Pepper, the mirror image spells "1 ONE I X HE ^ DIE". This has been interpreted by believers in two ways. The first is the 1, the "ONE" and the I each represent one of the Beatles, while the "X" signals one is missing. The second interpretation is that the date of Paul's alleged death is given. In this interpretation, the "1" and "ONE" make the number 11, meaning November. The "I" and "X" are taken to represent Roman numerals making the number 9. According to this interpretation, the message is either "11th September, he died" (using the British system of writing dates) or "November 9th, he died" (In 1966 November 9th was a Wednesday, referring to how he died on a Wednesday morning at 5 o'clock) (using the American system). However, the American system was not familiar in the UK, and as the album was by a British band with a cover by a British artist (Peter Blake), it seems unlikely the latter would have been used. Neither date systems would fit with the theory that McCartney died during the recording of Sgt. Pepper's—the album was recorded between December 1966 and June 1967, with an additional session in July 1967. In both cases, the arrow formed between "HE" and "DIE" appears to point to Paul. Back coverOn the back cover of Sgt. Pepper, McCartney is facing backwards, supposedly because he was dead and replaced with an impostor in the photograph. Also, George Harrison is pointing to the lyric "Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins" from the song "She's Leaving Home", allegedly a reference to the day and time when Paul crashed and was killed (It should be noted that if this and the "1 ONE I X HE ^ DIE" clue are both to be considered valid, the latter clue could not refer to September 11, 1966, as that date was not a Wednesday.) The words next to McCartney's head are "Without You". Although, George Harrison is not pointing to the clue. He is actually making an "L" for the word "love". The "O" is missing as Paul is faced backwards. The badgeThe inside cover of the Sgt. Pepper album has Paul wearing an emblem on his shirt sleeve whose initials have been suggested to be "O.P.D.", for "officially pronounced dead" or "original paul dead". However, in fact it reads "O.P.P." (the second P is partly obscured by a crease), and is a badge for the Ontario Provincial Police. Lyrics"A Day in the Life"Lennon's dramatisation of the demise of Tara Browne in the first part of "A Day in the Life" has been suggested by some to be an account of Paul's death. According to this theory, he was driving erratically under the influence of hallucinogenic compounds ("he blew his mind out in a car") and crashed because "he didn't notice that the lights had changed." The line "They'd seen his face before" is suggested to refer to the fact that many of the witnesses of the crash knew what Paul looked like, at least before the alleged disfiguring accident. According to The Beatles Anthology book, Paul McCartney crashed his moped while riding alongside Tara Browne sometime in early 1966. This left McCartney with a cut upper lip (the scar can be seen on close examination of Revolver-era photos ) that encouraged him to grow a moustache to cover it. The gibberish at the end of the song on the original UK LP and eventual CD edition of the album, the so-called "Inner Groove", when played in reverse has been interpreted as, among other things, "Will Paul be back as Superman?". The commonly accepted interpretation however is "We'll fuck you like a superman", as described by Paul McCartney in his biography Many Years From Now. Other lyrical cluesPaul's Fixing a Hole contains lyrics that may refer to his alleged fatal head injury: "I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in, and stops my mind from wandering", which led many believers to the conclusion that Paul's accident happened during a rainstorm. Others interpreted this line to be a reference to his fans weeping for him. Paul's Lovely Rita contains "...I took her home, I nearly made it..." which has been interpreted as hinting to Paul's failure to reach his destination due to the crash. Harrison's Within You Without You has the lyrics "life goes on within you and without you" and what could be interpreted as the sounds of weeping near the end. At the end of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise), between the drawn out lyrics, hearts and club, it sounds as if someone in the background is screaming, "Paul is dead! He's really really dead!". It is actually John asking "Paul, could you hold my guitar for me?" . "Billy Shears" is the name of the lead singer for the fictional Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band that the Beatles were originally planning to "play" on the album. Though this concept was largely discarded, the end of the title track includes a lyric referring to the "one and only Billy Shears", played by Ringo Starr, who sings the lead vocal on the next song, "With a Little Help from My Friends."

"Paul is Dead" clues from Magical Mystery Tour
|
|---|
Cover[[Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg -->|right|300px|thumb|Magical Mystery Tour]] The WalrusThe Beatles are dressed up as four different animals on the album cover: a rabbit, a hippo, a bird, and a walrus. McCartney is depicted as the walrus (although some have suggested he is in fact the hippo). Some claim the depiction of a walrus is an ancient sign of death, ranging from ancient Viking to ancient Greek to ancient Inuit, but no evidence has ever been produced. The phone numberWhen the cover is held in front of a mirror, the word "BEATLES" becomes a telephone number (often said to be 231-7438 when held in front of a mirror or 531-7438 when held upside down, but many others are suggested). Upon dialing the number, the story goes, the listener would hear the message "you're getting closer", receive information about Paul's death, win a trip to his grave, or even talk to him in the afterlife. Similar to 867-5309, the numbers were frequently called by curiosity seekers, causing much annoyance for their actual owners. It should be noted that these telephone numbers did not relate to British telephone numbers of the time. Inside sleeveThe fifth magician: The inside sleeve of the album states, "Away in the sky, beyond the clouds, live four or five magicians..." If the magicians are taken to represent The Beatles themselves, then the fifth magician could be interpreted to be Billy Campbell, Paul's replacement, if not early members Stuart Sutcliffe and Pete Best, both of whom are often referred to as being a "Fifth Beatle", or more likely George Martin, their producer, who is usually called "The Fifth Beatle." In the movie, the five magicians are played by The Beatles and Mal Evans. The fifth magician referred to was actually "Magic" Alex Mardas. The bookletThe booklet that accompanied Magical Mystery Tour contains a number of scenes from the film which are suggested to contain clues. The first shows McCartney dressed as an Army sergeant with a card on his desk that says "I WAS", suggested to indicate that the man WAS Paul. The card is actually the original British war poster on which the Uncle Sam "I Want You!" poster was based. Paul is also seated beneath a pair of crossed flags, as they would appear on the grave of a military serviceman. Shortly after this, there is a black-and-white fisheye lens image of a dinner party. If the viewer holds it sideways and squints, it appears to be the image of a crushed skull. In a scene in the middle spread, Paul is not wearing shoes, as further alluded to on the cover of the Abbey Road album. His shoes are next to Ringo's bass drum, which says "Love The 3 Beatles". The multi-exposure image of George Harrison shows a head-on car collision about to occur in the upper corner. In another page featuring a still from the dancing scene, McCartney wears a black carnation while the other three Beatles wear red ones. Paul's explanation for this is that they had run out of red ones. Lyrics from Magical Mystery Tour"Blue Jay Way"The George Harrison track, "Blue Jay Way", may be heard as a eulogy to Paul (with the lyrics "please don't be long, please don't you be very long, please don't be long, or I may be asleep..."). Also, some have claimed that when the chorus is played backwards, the following phrase is said, "He said 'get me out'. Paul is what is. Paul is Hare Krishna it seems. Paulie is bloody" and "Paulie got his face knocked in."[1] The song is actually about George waiting for Derek Taylor to help him move into his LA home on Blue Jay Way on a foggy day. "Your Mother Should Know"According to The Beatle Plot, reversing this McCartney song produces the words "Why doesn't she know me...I shed the light...dead." It may also suggest "Why does she know me?". "I Am The Walrus"The John Lennon track "I Am The Walrus" allegedly implies that McCartney died on a "stupid bloody Tuesday"; if we are to believe that McCartney died "Wednesday morning at five o'clock", as in "She's Leaving Home" from Sgt. Pepper, this could translate to be Wednesday morning UK time, while it would still be Tuesday evening in the U.S. West Coast. The chant at the end of the track, played backwards, seems to reveal "Paul Is Dead, Paul Is Dead..." And when played forwards to the end, contains a portion of a BBC radio broadcast of King Lear which mentions, "O, untimely death!" John had simply turned on the radio while recording and the "King Lear" bit was a coincidence. Also, right at the end, if reversed a voice allegedly says, "Paul is dead, his head off lies with his spirit." In the middle of the "I Am The Walrus" music video, John seems to point at something in the road. As everyone looks, you see Paul nodding his head when he sees, then you see a white car (possibly an Aston Martin) driving by 3 stone walls. "Strawberry Fields Forever"Some believers have interpreted what is generally agreed to be Lennon saying "cranberry sauce" at 3:55 into "Strawberry Fields Forever" to in fact be "I Buried Paul". In his book Summer of Love, producer George Martin confirms John was indeed saying "Cranberry Sauce, my mother made it for me." Lennon has also gone on record via radio shows to confirm he said "cranberry sauce." The Beatles Anthology Volume 2 CD, as well as some bootlegs, includes alternate takes of the song which also confirm this. Sources71.96.141.116 03:37, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America
|
|---|
A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America is a book by Ronald Takaki. It deals with the subject of minority perspectives of multicultural America, incorporating quotes, folk songs, letters, telegrams, and photographs into the text. It deals with, in roughly sequential order, Native Americans, African-Americans pre- and post-slavery era, Irish, Chicanos, Chinese, Japanese, Jews, and ties up the book with a current (for the time the book was written) summary of where minorities are now. Each chapter talks about the history of a different ethnic group, and covers over a period of time public attitudes towards the minority, public policy, laws for or against the minority, and attitude of the minority towards their situation. A theme going throughout the entire book is the 'us against them' attitude that the ruling structure has towards the minorities, from the fear of the "giddy multitude" in colonial times, to the Chinese Exclusion Act being created to 'protect' white labor, to the modern day accusations that "Hispanics [...] tak[e] jobs away from "Americans"" (A Different Mirror, page 424) Sources

Bridgewater railway station, Adelaide
|
|---|
Bridgewater railway station is the terminus railway station on the former Adelaide-Bridgewater railway line which is located in the Adelaide Hills suburb of Bridgewater. It is located 37.3km by railway from the Adelaide Railway Station. The line from Adelaide to Belair/Bridgewater opened in 1883. Until 1987 suburban railcars used the station as the terminus on the Adelaide-Bridgewater line. Passenger services to the station ceased due to low patronage, the terminus becoming Belair. In 1995 one of the two Broad Gauge (1600mm) tracks from Adelaide to Belair was converted to Standard Gauge (1435mm), now the old line between Belair and Bridgewater is a Standard Gauge track. Several freight trains pass through the station each day, including the 4 times a week Overland passenger train to Melbourne.

(T)Raumschiff Surprise – Periode 1
|
|---|
(T)Raumschiff Surprise is a German motion picture written, produced, directed by and starring Michael "Bully" Herbig, along with Rick Kavanian (who also acted as a co-author) and Christian Tramitz, who have also worked together in Herbig’s previous motion picture Der Schuh des Manitu. In 2004 it became the third highest-grossing German movie following Otto - Der Film and Der Schuh des Manitu. (T)Raumschiff Surprise is chiefly a parody on science fiction movies, particularly Star Trek, Star Wars I – The Phantom Menace, The Fifth Element, The Time Machine and Back To The Future. The title is an anagram of the German titulation for the Star Trek TV series, Raumschiff Enterprise (“Starship Enterprise”) and Das Traumschiff (“The Dream Ship”), a German version of the Love Boat TV series. The main characters Mr. Spuck (affectionally called “Spucky”) (Herbig), Captain Kork (Tramitz) and Schrotty (Kavanian) are based on characters from the (T)Raumschiff sketches in Herbig’s comedy show Die Bullyparade. Story / PlotThe year is 2004. In the Nevada desert, a pig music box is crushed under the wheel of a car which transports a general to the facility called Area 51. An alien has been apprehended, and the experts are quite confused about its nature. The general decides to have a personal look – and beholds a human-like figure with pointed ears wearing cowboy attire, an iron neck collar with chain, and who greets him with an affected “Hey, what’cha looking at?” Three hundred years in the future. The Earth is attacked by Martian colonists under the command of the Regulator and his asthmatic second-in-command, Jens Maul (Kavanian), and they are winning. Earth's Ruling Council under Queen Metapha (Anja Kling) is desperate enough to undertake time travel to undo the past: in the year 2054, Mars had been colonized thanks to alien technology which had landed into human hands in Nevada, in the year 2004. And they are all desperate enough to have the most unlikely candidates attempt this dangerous mission: the crew of the (T)Raumschiff Surprise – desperate simply because the crew commanders Captain Kork, Mr. Spuck (“Mr. Spit”, a 35 year old ‘Vulcanette’) and Mr. Schrotty (“Mr. Junky”) are extremely gay! At the very moment, the Surprise commanders have other difficulties to take care of: they have entered themselves for the Miss Waikiki election in Honululu and are ‘training’ hard to keep in shape, which includes affected singing, weight-measuring in anti-gravity conditions (for which Mr. Spuck proves even more than “far too fat to fly”). For that reason, they don’t want to be disturbed and at first ignore the calls from Earth; only an urgent fax – and the prospect for having their leave cancelled for disobeying orders – make them change their mind. But since it is too far for beaming, and the ship’s drives cannot make “Mopsgeschwindigkeit” (“pug dog speed”) because of a “marten damage”, they decide to take a taxi. Soon a cab hovers into the taxi bay, with a hunk of a man – for whom Spuck immediately falls for – at the steering wheel: Rock (Til Schweiger). Rock proves to be good enough to drive his gay clients through the blockade, but his taxi gets wrecked in the process and he steadfastly refuses to part company with the trio unless he gets a new one, so he accompanies them into the Council chamber. When he meets Queen Metapha, however, his resolve for getting compensation is temporarily suspended. The crew is instructed in the use of the time machine (in the shape of a sofa) and given two additional tools for the operation: a Swiss Army Laser and the manual for the time machine. But just as the preparations are complete, the Martian army attacks the capital, and commando units break into the Council Chamber. Schrotty is lost when he dives off the sofa to retrieve the manual (and is later executed by getting hit with a frying pan on the head); Rock decides not to stick around after all and hitchhikes a ride in the machine; and Metapha is urged to join the expedition as well to get her out of the enemy’s hands. However, Maul’s men find the manual, and this enables the villain to build his own time machine – a hover moped – and follow the fugitives. When the travelers come around, they find themselves in the year 1304 (Rock: “It’s not so far off”) – right into a tournament in England, held by Lord William the Last (Sky Dumont)! After a short fight with the attending guards, they are overpowered and the men thrown into prison; William takes a fancy on Metapha, however, and wishes to marry her. He also confiscated Spucky’s Polaroid camera, with which he zestily takes a lot of pictures. Rock is sentenced to fight in tomorrow’s jousting competition against a rival champion, as William’s oily herald is quick to suggest. In the dungeons, Spucky and Rock are having a most intimate – and ambiguous – talk (though on Rock’s side it remains strictly non-sexual) which fans Kork’s jealousy (he sits in an inconvenient position, which makes him see only shadows). On this occasion, Rock produces a music box with a piggy figure, his most treasured memento from home. The next day, Spucky and Kork, chained together at their necks, are set onto the sofa, and the sofa onto a pyre to have them burned as warlocks. Rock competes at the joust clad in a shockingly pink armor suit, courtesy of Mr. Spuck. But the expected adversary is missing, in his stead none other than Jens Maul appears as a Black Knight. When Rock (who is, of course, a bloody amateur in jousting) loses and is sentenced to join the others on the pyre, Metapha impulsively persuades William to have her go along. Maul, as the hero of the competiton, is unable to prevent them from activating the time machine as he is being hoisted into the air by the celebrating crowd, and William makes a few last pictures with the camera. When the sofa vanishes right with the flash of the last picture, however, the herald is quick to denounce William as a warlock and assume the throne for himself. The next station is Nevada, all right – but the Nevada of the 19th century, the era of the Wild West. While Rock and Metapha begin to have an argument about their growing feelings for each other and the time machine is wrecked by a speeding train, Kork – who is in need to relieve himself – and Spucky – because he is still chained to the captain – go into a wooden box, which seems to be a privy but turns out to be the wardrobe of the new sheriff (who does not appear in this movie). While inside, the two quickly change clothes (Kork gets the sheriff’s star) and then quickly fall into an argument about Spucky and Rock’s “amorous” talk back in the dungeon. The debate is broken up by the arrivals of Jens Maul – still in his medieval black armor – and the most notorious bandit in the area: Santa Maria (Sky Dumont in a cameo of his role in Der Schuh des Manitu). While Santa has a meeting with a bunch of nice old ladies before he goes off to sell a pub for a “Stammlokal”, one of his henchmen takes on Spucky and Kork (ostensibly the new sheriff). The only thing he manages to do, however, is to sever the chain connecting the two; any other action is forestalled by Metapha, who knocks him out from behind. In the meantime, Maul tries to steal the group's Swiss Army Laser (which they have accidentally dropped) and to escape on his time moped, but its conventional top speed leaves something to be desired; Rock is able to catch up with him on horseback, catch him with a lasso and capture the laser and the moped, which the group uses to escape this inhospitable era. But in the timestream they realize that they cannot properly control the vehicle; in a brief moment in which it returns to reality, they jump off, and the moped vanishes once more in time. Just as the quartet is about to take their bearings (as it turns out, it is finally 2004 Nevada), Jens Maul shows up once more, having painstakingly re-assembled the pieces of the smashed time sofa with the help of the manual. He and Rock come to blows with their Swiss Army Lasers, and just when Maul is ready to deliver the coup de grace, the UFO arrives and hits him on the head, knocking him cleanly out. To everyone’s surprise, the UFO turns out to be not bigger than a tablet – and from within a boisterous, beer-drinking and very rude alien hardly taller than a human hand emerges. When the creature chokes on a sip of beer, Spucky tries to help by offering him Maul’s asthma spray; but the device creates serious over-pressure and – well, scrap one alien. Before the local authorities arrive, Rock disintegrates the UFO with the laser, and the group scrambles onto the sofa. But the control panel shows that it is overloaded with exactly 76,375 kilograms – just as much as Spucky happens to weigh. With a heavy heart, Spucky decides to remain behind, and after a tearful farewell and a final gift from Rock (the music box) the rest of the group activates the time sofa. Back (and now) in the present, Spucky tires to convince the military that he is a time-traveling alien having come to save the world. The big wigs don’t believe him – until a buzzing reveals a futuristic gadget Spucky had pocketed just before departing the Surprise and stashed into a most private place: a thermometer with a vibratory alarm. When Kork, Rock and Metapha return to 2304, they find the Surprise crew giving them a hearty welcome, among them Schrotty (alive again) and Spucky, now at the age of 335 (Vulcanettes can age up to 400 years). Of course, with his presence in the altered timestream, Spucky has not hesitated to bestow his own personal touch upon the new world. And so the Surprise commanders get to attend the Miss Waikiki competition after all, not suspecting that Jens Maul is ready to have the last word about this….

The Danbury 11
|
|---|
On Tuesday, September 19, the city government of Danbury collaborated with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in a sting on 11 day laborers who were gathered at a downtown park looking for work.
Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton is the founder of Mayors and County Executives for Immigration Reform, a national network advocating extreme measures against immigrant workers. The group held a D.C. summit in the spring that drew 100 elected officials from 26 cities to hear speakers from the Bush Administration and major right-wing think tanks.

Rabat Medina Rabat Medina Culture The main colors of the Rabat Medina and beige walls with dark red doors to each of the souks (this is what the stores in the medina are called). Many people go there everyday to get everything that they need. Almost anything you want or need, can be found in the medina. The Rabat Medina has the least aggressiveness when trying to get people to buy things from any other medina in Morocco.
In the Shop Opening hours – les heures d’ouverture Open – ouvert Closed - fermé Sale (bargins) – les soldes Provisions sugar – le sucre butter – le beurre milk – le lait eggs – les œufs flour – la farine bread – le pain rice – le riz tea – le thé coffee – le café
Electronics Cameras, computer programs/games, and cell phones are all sold at the medina. They are sold for low prices. Shoes All throughout the medina there are leather Moroccan slipper shoes everywhere. They are natively called babouches. Modern shoe replicas with brands such as Puma and Converse are also sold, usually in sizes up to 39 or 40.
Rugs There are many rug souks throughout the medina. Rug store owners will usually make their customer sit down in their store and watch their rug demonstration while drinking mint tea. All different types of rugs are displayed to the customers hoping they will like something they see. Frames By the main movie section of the medina, there are places where pictures can be matted and framed. This price to frame a picture depends on how big the picture is and which frame is chosen. To frame without a mat usually costs anywhere from 50 to 100 dirham. Movies The movies in the medina can be found almost everywhere. While walking through the medina people come up to you to try to sell DVDs. These DVDs are usually not very good quality. Good pirated DVDs are in the set up stores with the stars on the back of the casing explaining what type of quality the DVD is. Movies are usually sold in French and English.
