Hells in hell hell

2011-02-19T23:27:00.000-08:00

Hell's myth quotes and sayings. In other words demystification of hell. And Google would be part of hell? It seems everybody has had a taste of hell in their lives. And just like everything else their is always someone on the receiving end because someone else is force feeding it to them

So many fancy phrases are using the term hell that it is being difficult to differentiate what is real and what is not. People have embedded these beliefs in their mind and are therefor deprived from true freedom.

A high way to hell, meaning a fast way to get in trouble, is the same as 2 steps from hell. Without forgetting that the first step might very well be fulfilled with the following saying: hope they serve beer in hell.

But questions remains such as why hells gates if someone can be hell bound? And by who precisely, Satan himself or some other god? The duration is unclear as their is beliefs that there is a way out of hell and other peoples beliefs are that life in hell is for eternity.

Some beliefs are simply idiotic and can actually be harmful by keeping people prisoners. the road to hell is paved with good intentions Seriously this saying has surely deprived some people to dare take part of actions in good causes simply because they are scared that their good intentions will actually bring them to hell.

And truthfully, what the hell, almost everyone has at one point or an other thought that hell is on earth. With neighbors from hell some are living hell.

Images for digital photo frame

2011-01-04T23:16:00.000-08:00

Ideasfor awesome images to include in a digital photo frame. Backlight, black light and glow in the dark can all set a good ambiance

Portishead: Give Me A Reason To Love You Mp3(accoustic)

Backlight photography

One of the very best ways to use a digital photo frame as a real "ambiance" decor that isn't too overcrowding in a room is probably by using backlit image.

Backlighting
A technique that needs critical adjustment on the camera from the part of the photographer. Too often the automatic setting of digital cameras does not provide the optimal setting for a good picture.

Blacklight images
The glowing luminosity of glow in the dark paint really shines with the digital photoframe. Cool visual seems an obvious choice for night time images. As the photo frame already is emitting light just a few lines can be more relaxing than a full frame of "flashy colors"

Glow in the dark paint
It is readily available at many hardware suppliers. For body paint you shouldn't use chemical base paint. A trip to the pharmacy might be the surest way to provide yourself with glow in the dark body paint.

As black as the night can get

The first line from the song titled "I'm Looking Forward To Joining You, Finally" by Trent Reznor found on the Nine Inch Nails (NIN)album "The Fragile" is the topic chosen for this page.

Lyrics, anecdotes

Lyrics to I'm Looking Forward To Joining You, Finally

as black as the night can get
everything is safer now
there's always a way to forget
once you learn to find a way how

in the blur of serenity
where did everything get lost?
the flowers of naïveté
buried in a layer of frost

the smell of sunshine
I remember sometimes

thought he had it all before they called his bluff
found out that his skin just wasn't thick enough
wanted to go back to how it was before
thought he lost everything
then he lost a whole lot more

a fool's devotion
swallowed up in empty space
the tears of regret
frozen to the side of his face

the smell of sunshine
I remember sometimes

I've done all I can do
could I please come with you?
sweet smell of sunshine
I remember sometimes

Sagittarius

♐The ninth 9th astrological sign from the zodiac is Sagittarius. It is a fire sign and one of the four mutable signs. The Sagittarius is ruled under the planet Jupiter.

Band: Nine Inch Nails
Album: The Downward Spiral
Song tittle:A Warm Place

In Greek mythology
The Sagittarius is identified as a centaur: half man, half horse. Some legends depict the Centaur Chiron as the son of Philyra and Saturn. It is said that he changed himself into a horse to escape his jealous wife, Rhea. Chiron was renowned for his gentleness and he eventually became immortalized in a constellation known as Centaurus or Sagittarius.

Black Fondue (Coeur de Pirate - Fondu au noir)

2010-11-15T15:37:00.000-08:00

The tittle of this article is to be taken humorously. It is simply a reminder not to take for granted some translations that can be found on the internet.

The lyrics to the song Fondu au noir by Coeur de Pirate can be found translated in English on many sites however they seem to all carry the same errors in the translation. The tittle is "fondu au noir" the translation should not be Melted to black but Faded to black. Fondu can have many meanings in french. Since the song has a few errors in the translation I figured I would try to do the song more justice with a more appropriate translation.

French

Fondu au noir

Dors, le mal est passé et tu entres dans la danse
Le pire de côté, ta revendre en cadence
Tu sèmes le bonheur à chaque pas que tu fais
Et à ton réveil la vie reprend son train.

Certes tu passe comme de l'air, dans un monde sans musique
Dépourvu de tes nuances, un peu trop spécifiques
Tu nages en douleur et il est presque temps
De fermer les yeux, dans la mort qui t'attends

Et si ça fait mal c'est parce qu'il comprend pas
Qu'une île nage dans ton coeur depuis longtemps
Et si ça fait mal c'est parce qu'il te voit pas
Alors que ton sourire enfin s'éteindra.

Dors le mal est passé, il te rattrapera pas
Le souffle coupé, tu n'es plus son appât
Ta peine s'est fendue au délire des autres
Qui oublieront bien vite que tu n'es plus des nôtres

Et si ça fait mal c'est parce qu'il comprend pas
Qu'une île nage dans ton coeur depuis longtemps
Et si ça fait mal c'est parce qu'il ne te voit pas
Alors que ton sourire enfin s'éteindra

Et si ça fait mal c'est parce qu'il ne comprend pas
Qu'une île nage dans ton coeur depuis longtemps
Et si ça fait mal c'est parce qu'il ne te voit pas
Alors que ton sourire enfin s'éteindra

English

Faded to black

Sleep, the worst is over and you enter in the dance
The worst aside, you resell in rythm
You sow happiness with every step you take
At your wakening life restart its cours

Sure you pass like air, in a world without music
Devoided of your nuances, a bit too specific
You swim in pain and it's almost time
to close your eyes in the death that awaits you

And if it hurts it's because he doesn't understand
That an island swims in your heart since a long time
And if it hurts, it's because he doesn't see you
While your smile finally fade away

Sleep the worst is over, it won't come back to you
Breath taken away, you're no longer its pray
Your sadness broke to the madness of others
Who'll forget real quickl that you're no longer with us

And if it hurts it's because he doesn't understand
That an island swims in your heart since a long time
And if it hurts, it's because he doesn't see you
While your smile finally fade away

And if it hurts it's because he doesn't understand
That an island swims in your heart since a long time
And if it hurts, it's because he doesn't see you
While your smile finally fade away

conclusion

At least this is how it seems more appropriate but only Beatrice Martin could really tell the proper meaning of her words.

Moon

2010-11-09T07:58:00.000-08:00

The moon has many impacts on our presence. And the moon hides many secrets as well. It is the subject of many religions, many stories, poems and songs. It is not a myth that the moon pulls its weight on earth.

With it's prominence in the sky and its regular cycle of phases it is no wonder that since ancient times, the moon had an important cultural influence on language, the calendar, art and mythology.

Fun fact:
many ancient pagan religions and societies are orientated chronologically by the moon as opposed to the sun.

As the moon pulls on the water mass and create tides it also pulls on the magma underneath the planet's crust. It is possible that the earth's magnetic field was created by having the moon giving a direction to the flow of the magma.

The moon's orbit
Personal observation of the moon leaves us the image that the moon goes through a complete moon phases cycle in about one month. The real amount of time being actualy and exactly is 29.5305882 days. This is called the synodic period or lunation.

But if you were to view the moon cycling the earth from above our solar system, the time required is exactly 27.3217 days, about two days less. This is called the sidereal period or orbital period.

Why the difference with the 2 periods? It has to do with earth own rotation and trajectory around the sun, altering our angle of view with respect to the moon. The earth's orbital direction is such that it lengthens the period for earthbound observers.

Moon signs, astrological moon phases
The twelve Zodiac moon signs are divided into four groups: air, fire, earth and water.

Moon gods and moon deities
There are many gods, deities and other personage represented by the moon or representing the moon. Such as in greek mythology with Selene, Phoebe and Artemis representing the moon.
In Roman mythology, the moon goddess are Luna (latin for moon)and Diana
The egyptian had Isis

There are some lunar male gods as well
Nanna or Sin fo the Mesopotamians,
Mani for the Germanic tribes,
The Japanese god Tsukuyomi,
Rahko of Finns
Tecciztecatl for the Aztecs.

Black

2010-11-09T05:43:00.000-08:00

Black There is so much to discover in this topic. The physics, the spiritual, the myths and all that is between

Speaking in terms of color, black is actually the absence of color. Color is transmitted to our eye in the form of light which are traveling in waves. Depending on the frequency of the wave, our eyes will perceive different colors. Black is "seen" only with the absence of those wave length.

It is said that a white colored material will reflect all the different wave length where as black material will absorb all and reflect none. In life, most of what we see is by reflection of light.

Saw 7 review
To start off, the picture quality is kind of diminished because of the RealD 3D.Other than that, the scenes are excellent as seen in Saw 6. My biggest deception of the 3D feature is that it's far from being exploited to its fullest. There is not enough to really get a WOW! effect as the previews from this movie left me anticipating. I expected more things coming at me and having the action around me.

6.5/10
It's supposed to be the final Saw so I expected a greater number of challenges, more gruesome twists to the story. It is a good story but not an excellent one

This horror movie review is not a spoiler please go on and share your comments in the same manner.

Ozzy Osborn. It's 1970.
This is how he saw the light shine through the night.

Please lets start with the lyrics

Planet Caravan lyrics

We sail through endless skies
stars shine like eyes
the black night sighs
The moon in silver trees
falls down in tears
light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
of sapphire haze
in orbit always

While down below the trees
bathed in cool breeze
silver starlight breaks down the night
And so we pass on by the crimson eye
of great god Mars
as we travel the universe
