E-book versions of Hitler’s opus are rising in the rankings on Amazon and iTunes.
I will let your formulate your own thoughts as to why this is occurring..The article doesn’t present theory but leads to further questions.
I do predict though that the article describing how popular Mein Kampf is becoming will only lead to the book becoming even more popular..
Bravo to Saturday Night LIVE for finally adding an African American woman, Sasheer Zamata, to the cast—first time since Maya Rudolph left the show..
A little late, sure.. And yes, Lorne Michaels, you’re show is becoming a bit outdated and stale.
But I think that happens with Saturday Night LIVE often.. There are transitional periods of time in which the show re-adjusts.. heck, I still remember when some famed stars left in the mid 1990s to do movies.. People thought the show would end. Until Will Ferrell and other greats came along and made the late 90s into the early 2000s some of the funniest seasons of the show yet..
Saturday Night LIVE will have trouble being the rebel without a cause that came in the late 1970s. But there are always chances for the show to becoming the ‘thing’ again. Maybe the inclusion of some new members of the cast will help. Certainly, Sasheer Zamata will help just in the fact that SNL has been a little uncultured in its cast members recently.
And the other positive: Kenan Thompson will finally be relieved of playing any role in which a black woman is needed.
Did you know..? Alfred Hitchcock made a film about Nazi death camps?But according to this UK INDEPENDENT article, Alfred Hitchcock, the master of macabre, was so haunted and disturbed by actual footage of the Holocaust that he stayed away from the Pinewood Studios for a full week after seeing it..
And now, soon, we will all get to see the horrifying footage that haunted Hitchcock.. The INDEPENDENT reports:
In 1945, Hithcock had been enlisted by his friend and patron Sidney Bernstein to help with a documentary on German wartime atrocities, based on the footage of the camps shot by British and Soviet film units. In the event, that documentary was never seen.
"It was suppressed because of the changing political situation, particularly for the British," suggests Dr Toby Haggith, Senior Curator at the Department of Research, Imperial War Museum. "Once they discovered the camps, the Americans and British were keen to release a film very quickly that would show the camps and get the German people to accept their responsibility for the atrocities that were there."
The film took far longer to make than had originally been envisaged. By late 1945, the need for it began to wane. The Allied military government decided that rubbing the Germans’ noses in their own guilt wouldn’t help with postwar reconstruction.
Five of the film’s six reels were eventually deposited in the Imperial War Museum and the project was quietly forgotten.
In the 1980s, the footage was discovered in a rusty can in the museum by an American researcher. It was eventually shown in an incomplete version at the Berlin Film Festival in 1984 and then broadcast on American PBS in 1985 under the title Memory of the Camps but in poor quality and without the missing sixth reel. The original narration, thought to have been written by future Labour Cabinet Minister Richard Crossman in collaboration with Australian journalist Colin Wills, was read by actor Trevor Howard.
The Imperial War museum has now put together the real footage along with other material and have prepared the film to be seen in the same way that Hitchcock did.. it will be shown on British TV in 2015 when the world marks the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Europe—the film will then be seen at other theaters and film festivals..
Looks like the relics in your closet will be the must watch films of the year.. There aren’t too many horror flicks worth looking forward to in 2014. A shame, too.. So much was great in 2013. The CONJURING was perhaps among the best.
In 2014 there will not be any gems worth mining..
"Ignore the barrage of violent threats and harassing messages that confront you online every day." That’s what women are told.
Eye opening .. thought provoking..
Yes, lots of people are really angry about this.
But I got to thinking..
Maybe it’s sort of .. well .. fitting.
I already see bloggers and Tweeters and others mocking the family and making some horrible jokes about this car accident.
Yes the show is deplorable. And no, I don’t watch it—not even the clips. But come on, people.. show some class, and interrupt your hate for a few minutes and just hope for the best for some of your fellow humans.
On January 6, 2014, I was listening to Ground Zero Radio with Clyde Lewis. His guest was Peter Davenport from the national UFO reporting center.. Davenport spoke to Lewis about a seemingly large uptick in UFO reports since January 1 of this year..
A bit into the show, I learned about a UFO case that may forever haunt me—and I should have known about it since I know exactly where this incident happened. Davenport spoke about Todd Sees from Northumberland County, Pa. Sees vanished in 2002.. Sees was 39 and lived at the base of Montour Ridge .. he was married and a father of two. One Sunday morning he took his ATV to the top of the mountain.. He never returned. They found his four wheeler. They also found his shoe in a tree.. they found his body some time later badly mutilated.. You can read more here about the case (and you can find some archived news stories from the DAILY ITEM here) or watch this video of homicide detective Butch Witkowski speak about this..
While the UFO movement has hitched a ride to the Todd Sees story, we must always strive to take stories of this nature with large grains of salt.
No matter what, though, this story in itself may haunt you for a long time after..
Paul Hellyer, who has long insisted that aliens have visited Earth for many years, says that when aliens saw the atomic bomb they decided that we were a great threat to the cosmos. Read this article by Chris Matyszczyk on CNET News.
If he is crazy, then he’s crazy. If aliens are real, then he may be right. But what about those hostile aliens, you know, the ones in the cigar shaped craft that take us? What about the Grays, who do bad things to people from the South? Paul Hellyer doesn’t answer much about that, but he does say that we need to give up warfare in order to get help from the creature above..
This is bizarre. Dennis Rodman just can’t stop loving Lil Kim Un..
Object shaped like a rugby ball flew within a few feet of passenger jet at 34,000ft, claims pilot
While it may not be proof of aliens, a pilot’s testimony already strikes a special chord with me. Maybe it’s because I picture Chesley Sullenberger heroically landing a plane on the Hudson and saving the lives of hundreds. Or maybe it’s because I loved the movie AIRPLANE ever since I was kid.. Either way, if a pilot tells me something happened, I tend to believe it.
In this circumstance, we have a pilot’s own testimony that the plane was around 34,000 when he saw something..
It was said to be “cigar/rugby ball like” in shape, bright silver and “metallic” and travelling towards the jet. The pilot said he felt certain it was going to crash into his aircraft and ducked as it headed towards him, but it did not appear to make impact. He told investigators he believed the object passed “within a few feet” above the jet.
Beware the cigar shaped UFOs.. All UFO aficionados learn at an early age that they are the bad ones..
This plane is thankfully safe..
But the mystery remains.
A UFO?
Alien life?
Maybe a drone..
Or something having a little fun at everyone’s expense..
The jury is out..
Forty years after The Exorcist scared the wits out of cinema audiences around the world, the Roman Catholic Church is training up a new generation of priests to meet a growing demand for exorcisms
It’s the Francis effect. He exorcises one guy in public and now it’s cool enough that everyone wants to do it..
Before you know it, people will be projectile vomiting in a bed near you.
This is a great video. It shows how we are not living in the moment.. too busy with cell phones and other technological gadgets distracting us from the beauty around.
There is nothing wrong with the phone you’re reading this one or the computer screen it appears on.. but we have lost that ability to ‘disconnect’ from the net. And that may have some negative side effects..
Remember in the wild new days of the net when it was young? When you could disconnect from dial up, or ‘dial in’ to the superhighway? Not anymore..
Now we must use will power to moderate our use..Or not moderate.. depending on your abilities..
Your eyes are seeing a map of 19th century shipping and trading routes.. Amazingly enough, it is also a pretty decent and accurate map of the continents themselves.. read more here..

Here is a very interesting story from SALON.COM about Ronald Reagan and his constantly chipper mood.. According to the SALON article, Reagan’s optimism was shaped by Manly P. Hall, a famed occult thinker..
Couple that with tales of secret societies and we have quite the conspiracy theory. But before you scoff at it, SALON is reputable and TIME magazine was, too, when it published the cover story you’re seeing here.
