Lyrics:
[Sagan] If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch You must first invent the universe
Space is filled with a network of wormholes You might emerge somewhere else in space Some when-else in time
The sky calls to us If we do not destroy ourselves We will one day venture to the stars
A still more glorious dawn awaits Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise A morning filled with 400 billion suns The rising of the milky way
The Cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths Of exquisite interrelationships Of the awesome machinery of nature
I believe our future depends powerfully On how well we understand this cosmos In which we float like a mote of dust In the morning sky
But the brain does much more than just recollect It inter-compares, it synthesizes, it analyzes it generates abstractions
The simplest thought like the concept of the number one Has an elaborate logical underpinning The brain has its own language For testing the structure and consistency of the world
[Hawking] For thousands of years People have wondered about the universe Did it stretch out forever Or was there a limit
From the big bang to black holes From dark matter to a possible big crunch Our image of the universe today Is full of strange sounding ideas
[Sagan} How lucky we are to live in this time The first moment in human history When we are in fact visiting other worlds
The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean Recently we've waded a little way out And the water seems inviting ---------------------------------------

The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War, or the Vietnam Conflict, occurred in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia from 1959 to April 30, 1975. The war was fought between the communist North Vietnam, supported by its communist allies, and the government of South Vietnam, supported by the United States and other member nations of the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO).
The Vietcong, the lightly armed South Vietnamese communist insurgency, largely fought a guerrilla war against anti-communist forces in the region. The North Vietnamese Army engaged in a more conventional war, at times committing large-sized units into battle. U.S. and South Vietnamese forces relied on air superiority and overwhelming firepower to conduct search-and-destroy operations, involving ground forces, artillery and air strikes.
The United States entered the war to prevent a communist takeover of South Vietnam as part of a wider strategy called containment. Military advisors arrived beginning in 1950. U.S. involvement escalated in the early 1960s and combat units were deployed beginning in 1965. Involvement peaked in 1968 at the time of the Tet Offensive. Under a policy called Vietnamization, U.S. forces withdrew as South Vietnamese troops were trained and armed. Despite a peace treaty signed by all parties in January 1973, fighting continued. In response to the anti-war movement, the U.S. Congress passed the Case-Church Amendment in June 1973 prohibiting further U.S. military intervention. In April 1975, North Vietnam captured Saigon. North and South Vietnam were reunified the following year.
Battlefield Vietnam explores some of the most important battles fought during the Vietnam War. There are detailed battlefield descriptions and graphics, accompanied by actual combat footage. The narrator speaks throughout the series, without interviews of actual battle veterans. Detailed analysis of the battle including leaders, commanders, soldiers and weapons is presented. Events preceding the featured battle are included, as well as some aftermath details.

Original videoclip
Lemmy Kilmister - Vocal And Bass Eddie Clarke - Guitar Phil Taylor - Drums
Lyrics: If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man You win some, lose some, It's all the same to me The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say I don't share your greed, the only card I need is The Ace Of Spades The Ace Of Spades
Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil, Going with the flow, it's all a game to me, Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you, Double up or quit, double strake or split, The Ace Of Spades The Ace Of Spades
You know I born to lose, and gambling's made for fools, But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live forever, And don't forget the joker!
Pushing up the ante, I know you've got to see me, Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again, I see it in your eyes, take one look and die, The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be, The Ace Of Spades The Ace Of Spades

Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster, released in Japan as Three Giant Monsters: The Greatest Battle on Earth (三大怪獣 地球最大の決戦?, "San Daikaijuu: Chikyuu Saidai no Kessen") and originally released in the US as Ghidrah, the Three-Headed Monster, is a 1964 tokusatsu kaiju film, and is the 5th film in Toho's Godzilla series. It was directed by Ishiro Honda with special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya.
The film is noted for having Godzilla playing a role where he benefits Japan, instead of trying to destroy it. It also features Mothra and Rodan, and introduces King Ghidorah.
Starring: Megumi Odaka, Akira Takarada Director: Kazuki Omori, Takao Okawara
Some wiki trivia:
* Because the completion of Akahige, by Akira Kurosawa, was falling behind, this film was pushed through to cover the planned release of that film. Therefore, this new Godzilla film was released successively in the winter, proceeded by Mothra vs. Godzilla in spring of the same year.
* The Yokohama Marine Tower, a miniature of which is destroyed by King Ghidorah's gravity beams in the film, was completed three years before the movie was produced.
* The Godzilla suit used for the film was named "Sandai-Goji".
* Godzilla does not use his atomic ray against King Ghidorah in the film, even though it is shown on the original Japanese poster.
* This film marks the first appearance of Rodan in a Godzilla film.
* In his conversation with Mothra, Godzilla states that he only hates humans because humans hate him, and because of what he perceives as unprovoked attacks towards him, suggesting that he was not really a villain in the first place.
* In Mothra vs. Godzilla, there were two Mothra larvae, but in this film there is only one. The Shobijin explain that one of the larvae died.
* This film marked Godzilla, Rodan, and Mothra's first encounter with an extraterrestrial monster.

The question... What is the meaning of ourselves amidtst cosmic phenomenon? Clean and clear, only waiting to be clarified for our.... ATOMIC DREAMS TO RAVAGE OUR SPHERE? Or is there some other paradigm which harkens us to pastures yet, untrameled by human concious......?
The end is only as near as the gray is in black and white....
P.S.
Hope my music's dissonance is not to off beat for the Huxley motiff.. Farewell and until next we speak.. Bye.
