CAN THEY BE STOPPED & WILL KNiFA BE OPENING FOR THEM IN FLORIDA IF THEY EVER TRAVEL DOWN THERE??!

ANIMAL COLLECTIVE ARE FINALLY GETTING WHAT THEY DESERVE. ON THEIR 9TH ALBUM, THEY HAVE STARTED TO GET THE RECOGNITION THAT THEY ARE SO WORTHY OF. I AM A HUGE FAN OF RADIOHEAD AND I WOULD SAY THAT THIS IS AS CLOSE TO A "KID A" ALBUM THAT ONE COULD PROGRAM THEIR BRAINS TO BLEND WITH ARTISTIC EXPRESSION.

OBAMA WAS ON JIMMY KIMMEL TONIGHT.. I SAW THE ORIGINAL AIRING.. BARACK OBAMA IS FN BRILLIANT~

BARACK IS OFFICIALLY THE 44TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
THIS MIGHT END UP BEING THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON EVER BORN~ THE WORLD WILL EITHER GET A LOT BETTER OR IT WILL FALL APART & THE OZONE OR BOMBS WILL KILL US~

THIS IS FROM A CHINA NEWSPAPER. MY BLOG COULD FOCUS ON WHAT OTHER COUNTRIES THINK OF US.. HMMM..


WASHINGTON, Jan. 20 (Xinhua) -- Hope is one thing, the reality is another. On Tuesday, about 2 million people gathered in Washington D.C. to celebrate the inauguration of Barack Obama as new U.S, president, hoping he will save the economy, but the Wall Street plunged more than 4 percent in New York.

In his address just after taking the swearing-in oath, Obama admitted that the U.S. was "in the midst of crisis is now well understood," listing war, economy, healthcare, home foreclosures, jobs, energy and other challenges.

"Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age," said the new president.

But Obama assured Americans that although "the challenges we face are real, serious many," and "will not be met easily or in a short span of time," America's goals "will be met."

The new president's words were echoed by Dean Glenn, an entrepreneur from Virginia, who told Xinhua that he is optimistic and believes Obama will save the economy and be great leader.

He said: "The economic crisis is a tough problem, it require some smart person to figure it out, I think he is surrounded himself with some very smart persons."

Glenn, who had never been to inauguration before, said: "Today is a day we look forward to for long time," adding that he believes Obama will bring changes to the U.S.. "We will have a new spirit of cooperation, hopefully a respect of the world."

Witnessing Obama was sworn in as the 44th U.S. president, the first black president in America's history, hundreds of thousands of people, like Glenn, erupted in roars of approval, and cheered in the same tone: "Obama, Obama!"

A recent national poll also showed that Obama's approval rating had risen to nearly 80 percent, revealing people's satisfaction with his work in the transition of power, establishment of his cabinet, as well as high expectations of his administration after Jan. 20.

"I think he (Obama) is going to do a magnificent job, he has several teams that would change the nation," said David S. TorainII, head of Mathematics department of Hampton University, who joined the jubilation near the Washington Monument, which stands at the central of the National Mall.

As for the economy, however, he seemed to be not so optimistic. Inheriting a series of economic problems on a scale not seen since the Great Depression, Obama will have a hard time reviving the nation's sagging economy, he noted.

"It might took long time to get out of the meltdown. I don't think anybody can turn around in next 6 months," he told Xinhua.

But he believed that Obama would help improve the situation. "I think he will be the greatest president since John F. Kennedy, he has great ideas, let's wait and see what happens," he said.

But the Wall Street cannot wait. The U.S. stock market plunged more than 4 percent on Inauguration Day Tuesday as bank woes spread while investors failed to find confidence from President Barack Obama's inauguration speech.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down more than 330 points, or 4 percent, falling below 8,000 for the first time in 2009, while the Standard & Poor's 500 and the Nasdaq indexes dropped more than 5 percent.

News Analysis: Inheriting recession, Obama faces tough economic challenge

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20 (Xinhua) -- Inheriting a series of economic problems on a scale not seen since the Great Depression, new U.S. President Barack Obama will have a hard time reviving the nation's sagging economy.

In his speech after being sworn in as the 44th president of the United States on Tuesday, Obama acknowledged the daunting challenges facing the nation, saying "we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood." Full story

News Analysis: Obama's presidency to start amid expectations, hopes, challenges

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President-elect Barack Obama's historic journey to the White House reaches its successful end on Tuesday when he takes oath of office as the new president, but he will face a rougher road filled with expectations, hopes and challenges.

Even before his presidency begins, Obama has been written into history for his unique power in the presidential campaign to inspire and energize millions of Americans to congregate under his banner of "changes we believe." Full story

Feature: Well-wishers at Philadelphia station hope Obama to help realize dreams

30TH STREET STATION, Philadelphia, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- While U.S. President-elect Barack Obama was delivering a speech in a tightly-guarded conference room inside the spacious main hall of the 30th Street Station of Philadelphia, many well-wishers barred from entry were expressing their hopes and aspirations in the chilly weather outside.

"My biggest wish for Obama is that he could keep his promise to give us single-payer health care," said retired nurse Diane Mohney, who was distributing flyers which read "Let's End Our National Healthcare Nightmare." Full story

WES ANDERSON & OWEN WILSON ARE TO MOVIES WHAT CONOR OBERST & ISAAC BROCK ARE TO MUSIC. THE BEST, PERIOD.

The Journey They Took With Filming THE DARJEELING LIMITED Doesn't Get Enough Credit In My Opinon. I
Wonder If There Will Be More Films
To Continue The Story Or If The Whole "To Be Continued" Line By Anjelica Houston Was Just Another
Sweet Detail By The Amazing Writers
Of The Film: Wes, Jason Shwartzman & Roman Coppola Who Also Toyed With The "Fictional Characters" Short
Story's That ADRIEN BRODY & WES ANDERSON Read Written By JASON SHWARTZMAN'S CHARACTER. It Would Take Me Forever To Dive Into Every Thought I Have On The Absolute Brilliance On Any Wes Anderson Production. I Am Reading A Interview That He Did Recently Where DAVID AMSDEN Did Probably The Most Detailed Interview With Him To Date.. Check It Out HERE ON NYMAG.COM ~

I Have Decided After The 20TH viewing of The Darjeeling Limited That It Was The Best Written & Executed Film By Wes & Had All The Emotions From Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, Bottle Rocket & Definitely Not The Worst Of His Films Like He Says People Say About His Films THE LIFE AQUATIC Who Stars BILL MURRAY & Really Sheds A Different Light On Owen Wilson Compared To His Other Performances On All ANDERSON Films, Which Are FN Brilliant As Well.. But, He Isn't Even Half As Frantic Or Sure Of Himself As His Characters As Denton In Bottle Rocket, Eli Cash In The Royal Tenenbaums or The Oldest Brother In THE DARJEELING LIMITED. Like I Said Earlier, I Will Literally Ramble On & On About This For Hours, I Have To Go Visit My Grandmother At The Nursing Home & Then Pick Up My Xanax At The PUBLIX Because I Am Really Fucking Anxious After Being Out For A Few Days.. Like Wes, I Like To Create The Movie & Record I Am Making Before They Exist, Let's Just Hope I Make It That Long. xo

DAMN. I NEVER KNEW IAN CURTIS' GRAVE STONE WAS STOLEN IN JULY..

Hand it to Pitchfork.com to reveal something I didn't catch onto before.. Ian Curtis, The extremely talented Front Man for Joy Division who are absolutely main influences on some great bands, Including: Interpol, The Killers, Editors, & Even Bono Said That They Were One Of The Greatest Bands EVER & That He Wept For Ian. The Singer Was Depicted Brilliantly In The Amazing Indie Film CONTROL & It Broke My Heart!! Like The Book By Benjamin Nugent: "Elliott Smith & The Big Nothing," I Understand How They Felt & It Is Something That I Deal With Everyday.. But, What The F#CK??!!! A??!

From Wikipedia, I Got A Little Info On The Way He Ultimately Wanted It..

Curtis's last live performance was on 2 May 1980 at Birmingham University, a show that included Joy Division's first and only performance of the song "Ceremony", later recorded by New Order and released as their first single. The last song Curtis performed on stage was "Digital". The recording of this performance can be found on the compilation album Still.

In the early hours of 18 May 1980, Curtis hanged himself in his kitchen after having viewed Werner Herzog's film Stroszek and listening to Iggy Pop's The Idiot. At the time of his death, his health was failing as a result of his epilepsy and a hectic touring schedule, and his marriage was falling apart.

Wilson later said, "I'd been warned on a train to London two weeks earlier by Annik [Honoré, Curtis' lover]. I asked her, 'What do you think of the new album.' She goes, 'I'm terrified.' I said, 'What are you terrified of?' She replies, 'Don't you understand? He means it.' And I go, 'No, he doesn't mean it - it's art.' And guess what? He fucking meant it."

Curtis's memorial stone, which is inscribed with "Ian Curtis 18 - 5 - 80" and "Love Will Tear Us Apart", was stolen in July 2008 from the Cheshire cemetery where he is buried.
