Chinese Man Throws Bicycle At Thieves On Scooter!

Two thieves on a motor-scooter flew by and snatched a woman's purse on a street in Wenzhou, China. Surveillance video shows a man riding a bicycle.  As he was passing by the front of a hotel near where the thievery happened, he stopped, calmly got off his bicycle, picked it up, and then threw it at the thieves. The bicycle hit them, they lost control, and crashed to the ground.

Don't you just love the old 1974 pop tune "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas.

CLASSIC!!!

Creepiest Movie Intro Music - "The Day the Earth Stood Still" (1951)!

Here is the creepiest and most unusual music scoring of the sci-fi classic - "The Day The Earth Stood Still" (1951). This is the opening of the film without dialogue, the score included electric violin, electric bass, 2 theremins* (treble & bass), test oscillators, vibraphone, 4 pianos, 4 harps & approximately 30 brass instruments.  Unusual overdubbing & tape-reversal techniques were used as well.

The film music composer of this score Bernard Herrmann (1911-75) is particularly known for the scores of Alfred Hitchcock's films (such as Psycho), he also composed notable scores for many other movies (such as Citizen Kane & Taxi Driver), radio broadcast & TV programs.  His music is typified by frequent use of ostinati (short repeating patterns), novel orchestration & an ability to portray character traits not altogether obvious from other elements of the film.  In the last years of Herrmann's life he did much to create interest in film scores as a form of music worthy of appreciation & performance.

Montage - Burning Man 2009!

I left something on the playa.
But it wasn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
Not anymore.
Writing on a wall.
Soon bathed in fuel.
Let it burn.
And watch the wind carry it away...
