How can a man (Wayne Coyne) and a band (The Flaming Lips) inspire us here at Feed Me Farms? It all began on New Year’s Eve. We decided to take a well earned break
from the farm and drive through snow and sleet to see The Flaming Lips play their hometown of Oklahoma City on this celebratory evening.
As soon as we hit the city limits, we began to see the positive influence that this band has had on their hometown. Instead of heading for the bright lights and big
time status of living in L.A., New York or any other glamorous urban setting, they have chosen to stay in Oklahoma and help their States tourism and economy. And what
a great job they’ve done. Wayne and his band mates have turned the ordinary into extraordinary. If more people did this, the world would be a much better place to
live. No matter where in the world that might be, from small rural farms to big urban sprawl.
I picked up a local paper in the lobby of our hotel upon check-in and to my delight found an article called “10 for 2010.” To my surprise and delight, the first
person listed was Wayne Coyne and his 10 for 2010:
1. To see U.F.O.s come down and enlighten all humans
2. To see all humans be kind to animals
3. To see religious fanatics disappear
4. To see the Pentagon levitate
5. To see Global Warming stop
6. To see marijuana de-criminalized
7. To see humans give love instead of taking it
8. To watch the Oklahoma (or in our case ,Texas) sunset more often
9. To sleep late
10. To accept things we cannot control
I was immediately drawn to Wayne’s wonderful philosophy and decided, right then and there, what my new year resolutions would be. I would adopt his and add 10 for
2010 of my own:
1. To live every day with no regrets and fill our life with art, music, entertainment and laughter
2. To think less of what I want and need
3. To think more about what I have and can do with it
4. To savor the smell of fresh hay, freshly turned dirt and green pastures
5. To savor the joy in finding a hidden egg or newborn farm animal on any given day
6. To really love those around me – be it family, friend or animal
7. To make things grow so that I can feed the minds, bodies and souls of those around me
8. To enjoy the simple pleasures of fresh food, a good bottle of wine and the time spent preparing it with the one I love
9. To embrace middle age and what it really means to be happy with yourself
10. To bloom where you’re planted!

Movies have become quite synonymous with the fresh air that we breathe in, having acquired a high stature, owing to our inclination towards them. It’s our inner self that seeks for a breather, amidst the monotony and killing drudgery that binds our very thought processes.
They have come way ahead of being mere motion pictures, or a riveting methodology of telling a captivating tale. These tableaus have built an invisible but strong bond with all and sundry, and draws people in hordes to cinema halls.
When I think of all the movies that have seen the light of the day, I’m astounded with the very dimension that the movies have brought forth, much to the delight of the audience. Be it emotional dramas or any other genre, films have painted the canvass with all possible colors. And every single time, films have been more than perfect, for we have laughed, shed tears and empathized with the protagonists; or for that matter, even with the ancillary characters.
Due to a paucity of time, the perfect option that lies before us is to go for direct download movies, and enjoy entertainment to our heart’s content. While Bill Gates was busy digging into the nitty gritty of the computer in a bid to what Thomas Friedman later called an effort to make the world ‘flat’, movies too were trying hard to transgress certain boundaries.
That path may not be direct, yet it did strike the right chord with all. Our craving to hit it off the download way has enhanced, owing to the very sumptuous platter that’s on offer. In fact, movies have become a part of our very lives.
Be it our t’te-a-t’te with an extra-terrestrial creature, or a flight into the vast expanse of space, or our tryst with the doomsday itself, we’ve beheld every aspect of human nature and the limits to which one’s imagination can drive him.
A question that pops up every now and then is regarding the best place to download movies. When it comes to deciding what’s best, it ain’t that easy. Amidst umpteen so-called havens, bumping into one place that’s perfect can be dangerous, if you are not aware. A piece of advice from my end would be to mull over it in detail, before jumping to conclusions. While the process of download may have become a trend, movies are nothing less than a delectable treat when facilitated from a reliable portal.
As the magic continues, I guess we would never ever want the spell to be cast away, for we simply love this state of hallucination!

The new-media generation faces many chances and opportunities for a more connected, globalized world. Through the widespread use of the internet, content is created and uploaded in an unprecedented fashion. One development of an interconnected world has been the creation of masses of internet porn sites showing سكس فيديو مقاطعto audiences all over the world. A side effect of the unrestricted access to hardcore pornography is that many feel it decelerates the process of gender equality. Seeing as most internet porn consumers are male, most of the movies are directed towards them. This way, companies creating and showing content can maximize their profits and address male audiences in all their requests and fantasies.
A side effect of this, though, is ignoring female emancipation in two ways. First of all, some women would oppose to the stigma attached to watching سكس فيديو مقاطعif there were only enough videos targeted towards their desires. One way to stimulate female fantasies could be to replace some actors with men who are more attractive while still being able to sexually perform as needed in porn movies. The second issue is the dehumanization of women in a large percentage of pornography that has been produced recently. More and more porn stars receive plastic surgery on a grand scale to satisfy male fantasies. Excessive surgeries on actresses’ boobs, butts and vaginas oftentimes make it hard for them to lead normal lives. There are numerous stories of women being in constant pain because of giant implants so as to be successful on the hard and competing market of porn stars. Some women can’t even sleep unless lying flat on their backs because their boob implants hinder them from being comfortable in any other natural position. Of course one can argue that it’s a porn actress’s choice to undergo certain cosmetic procedures but there is even a lot more to it.
Some men who watch pornography don’t have a healthy and strong sex life in the first place. As a result their approach and impression of female sexuality shifts massively towards an unattainable ideal. As mentioned above, not many natural girls or women look like porn actresses. But more importantly, they (and their bodies) act in a completely different way before and during sexual intercourse. A large percentage of women isn’t actually into too much of different fetishes, as presented on in most سكس فيديو مقاطع. Furthermore they can only perform as they do through the excessive use of lube, and even then they are sometimes still in big pain. Of course, pornography is a huge industry which needs to be profitable – but it must be noted that what is shown in most clips does not show the reality of a satisfying sex life for both men and women.

A while ago I have talked with director and writer of D.A. Sebasstian about Rat Rods and others things when he ask me If I would like to review his latest movie Rat Rod Rockers! I was interested so I agreed to. I am not big on underground and “campy” style films but since this one is about Hot Rods I had to give it a shot (plus free DVD, who would say know to that).
So I got the movie in the mail a few days later, a long with pictures of some pin-ups (eye-candy). The DVD cover and it has that old style B-Movie look to it, so that’s what I was expecting.
The movie is about a family the Mildues (seriously that’s there last name) who by a property in Anywhere, Washington that they do not know has money from an moonshiner named Old Man Kanker ( seriously that’s his name) and the Mad Kats car club are hired by the Russian Mafia to find the money from the property but the Mildues having just moved in makes this difficult.
The movie is low budget, the quality isn’t Hollywood quality but is much better than phone or home camera quality and the acting isn’t great.
There are a lot of Hot Rods in the movie! A lot, everyone in the small town owns a hot rod, even the Mildues own a 56 De Soto as there daily driver. There is a black Model B Sedan, a 56 T-bird Gasser with a 514 big block stroker!, a Tri Five Chevy Gasser, a roadster and many other Hot Rods!
I was disappointed that there wasn’t a lot of car action or car talk in the movie. The Hot Rods where used as just regular transportation and daily drivers. There was a short drag race between the 56 Hot Rod to Hell T-Bird and a 55 Chevy, as well as the only car chase I ever seen that started with Mr. Mildue spying on the Mad Kats and the Russian Mafia, trying to take a picture and he accidently Honks his horn and it ends with him running out of gas (I am not making this up).
When I was watching the movie I wasn’t sure if I liked it at first when I was watching it. It seemed really home made, with goofy acting, and a simple plot. I was disappointed that there was only one race scene, and one car chase and more foot chases in a movie titled Rat Rod Rockers. However after I watched the movie I kept thinking about it for a few hours afterwards and it became funny to me.
The bad acting, the goofy names, the foot chases,the Character of Harold Mildue it all seemed funny after I watched the movie. I actually started laughing about everything afterwards. Would really made the movie great was Harolds goofyness, the character tries to be the stereotypical 50s TV Father, however it seems more like his mind is stuck in the 60s. He is naive, light hearted, always happy even when he is locked up by the Russian mafia, he doesn’t seem to have a care in the world.
Other things that I started liking in my head was the Mad Kats Car Club and there “leader” Jimmy Knight’s determination to get on the Mildues property for the money any way possible. From trying to poses as government officials to claim the property had radiation which Harold doesn’t believe them, he tries get the Mildues out of the house long enough to go look around on the property which again back fires, so he decides to just try and kidnap the Mildues.
Overall I liked the movie, when I first heard the name Rat Rod Rockers I was expecting a movie more like Two Lane Blacktop but in one town, with Rockabilly bands (the trailer on youtube showing the drag race also made me think of this) but instead I got an entertain, and very funny thriller film with lots of Hot Rods. The Film could be considered a parody of thrillers. If you like goofy, campy humor, low budget films, hot rods, rat rods, surf rock or rockabilly I recommend it!
PS the theme music will be stuck in your head for days!

Footloose 2011
Footloose 2011 once again Hollywood takes a classic 80′s movie and re spins it.
In the original Footloose rebellious teenager Ren played by (Kevin Bacon) moves to a small town with his mother and he is about to be in for a shock
Bomont is a small American town with a difference public dancing and rock music are banned by the town council, run by the local preacher played by (Jhon Lithgow) after a tragic accident some years earlier.
After making some enemy’s at his new school and a few friends one Will played by (Chris Penn Sean’s younger brother) gives a great performance as the hardened cowboy type learning to dance.
Ren soon learns that the town law is upheld by the police when he is pulled over for playing music tapes in his car for those old enough to remember those.
The preachers daughter Ariel who it turns out is really a rebellious bad girl seen car surfing at the beginning of the movie is played by (Lori Singer who was 27 at the time of filming) she beat Maddona to get the role.
Anyway Ariel and Ren take a shining to each other which does not go down well with Ariels boyfriend and a number of encounters between them take place, most noticeably a game of chicken with tractors whilst “Holding out for a hero by Bonnie Tyler is playing”.
Another notable part of the film is one of Ren taking out his anger by dancing in a barn doing some quite amazing moves although how much of it was really him is not quite clear.
Footloose goes on to see Ren fight for a High School Prom to take place and Footloose 2011 seems to follow much the same sort of script going by the trailer just updating a few of the original films themes.
Footloose 2011 may give film fans who have not seen the original a great time and as a fan of the original I will wait until I have seen the film before I decide on how it relates to the original but I am looking forward to it, Kenny Wormald who plays Ren in Footloose 2011 has been dancing since the age of 6 so should have found the moves quite easy and Dennis Quaid takes over the role of the preacher an actor I have enjoyed in numerous other films so will look forward to his performance, and Andie McDowell plays the preachers wife, another fine actress who I last watched in the Based on true story the 5th Quarter.
Footloose 2011 has a revamped soundtrack by all accounts with Blake Shelton singing footloose and a host of other stars contributing amongst them are Cee-Lo Green, Ella Mae Bowen singing Holding out for hero, with the soundtrack released September 27th.
Footloose 2011 is due for release October 14th
A quick fun fact is that Footloose is loosely based on a true story, In 1979 Elmore City, Oklahoma, the local High School wanted to put on their senior prom but dancing was against the law, this was due to an ordanance law dating back to the 1800′s banning dancing within the city’s limits, as in the film the local preacher was against overturning the ban citing dancing the devils work.
