Laal – Meray Dil Meray Musafir (Official Music Video)
From the Blog Koolmuzone: Laal – Meray Dil Meray Musafir (Official Music Video) - Laal presents "Meray Dil, Meray Musafir" dedicated to the Birth Centenary of Faiz Ahmed Faiz . The music video is a new interpretation of Faiz's iconic poem "Dil e Man, Musafir e Man". While Faiz wrote this poem about exile, this video explores Marx's concept of alienation within the context of modern industrial capitalism. None of the individuals within the video are actors. Comrade Irfan plays his and his family's shared experiences. In fact, every single role has been played by individuals who actually live these lives. The video was shot in the industrial areas of Lahore (Greentown, Multan Road, Defence Road, Ilaqa Nawab Sahib). Laal's music is about real people and real struggles. Inqalab Zindabad! Band: Laal Song: Meray Dil Meray Musafir Poet: Faiz Ahmed Faiz Composition / Arrangement: Taimur Rahman Mixing / Mastering: Jamal Rahman Direction: Taimur Rahman and Mahvash Waqar Acting: Comrade Irfan, Raheela, Natasha, Tehseen, Touseef.

We need to try and help bring that number down. Life, in general, is very difficult for transgender humans. They have to face ridicule, discrimination, unemployment, homelessness and sometimes just having no hope whatsoever. The last thing someone in such a vulnerable community needs to see is to be referred to as “It”. This is by far the worst name you can call someone who is transgender. Everyone in the world knows this accept Jamie Freeze, who believe it or not, is a law student. Please let Jamie Freeze and Renew America know what you think about this. . Read Full Post

And hundreds more are slated to be killed. 1,600 bison were killed in the winter of 2007/2008 — more than a quarter of the wild population. This is no way to manage one of the icons of the American West — especially in a state that prides itself as a destination for wildlife-seeking tourists. Take action now! Write to the Montana Promotion Division — the state%u2019s tourism officials — and speak out for sensible management of these American icons! Please sign this petition…thank you! . Read Full Post

Back to the future
From the Blog DeadpanThoughts - > Back to the future deadpanthoughts.com — By WR 25 years ago, I swear I thought I'd see flying cars in 2011. That's right not 2010, but exactly 2011. What I see instead is uglier versions of Honda Civics, Corollas and those Pijaro type vehicles. I had thought by now, I would have travelled back to the future (I mean... . Read Full Post
