KHEL 666 Opinion: Terrorism = Cowardice + Evil

Hamas terrorists kidnapped and later murdered three Israeli teenagers: Eyal Yifrah, 19, Gilad Shaar, 16, and Naftali Fraenkel, a 16-year-old with dual Israeli-American citizenship.

The Israel-Palestine conflict is a terrible thing. But there is never any excuse for evil, cowardly acts such as this against innocent civilians. The members of terrorist organizations such as Hamas and ISIS are not heroes by any stretch of the imagination. They are criminals, plain and simple.
The killers appear to have been part of a Hamas-affiliated cell. However, there is evidence that the murder was not perpetrated or ordered by Hamas leadership.

Linkin Park: She Coudn't

Beautiful deep cut from Linkin Park with this melancholy power  ballad.

He Say, She Say, But What Does God Say?

Powerful vocals and a humorous script combine in the musical by David E. Talbert. If you like your stories without a lot of nudity and harsh language--or scenes like the one I shared last night--you may enjoy this feel-good, song-filled story.

Solange: Some Things Never Seem to Fucking Work

A Rich Set of Affordances

A clever little allegory for how hypermedia works. In a way, even though I'm still quite inept at manipulating hypermedia, I think I do have a better if still vague understanding of it after watching this!

Since the Last Time I Saw You

Jim and the Povolos: Seems Right

A smile deflects the question, doesn't reflect the view
Marching to a dead drum, standing in the queue

I take all the blame, wasting precious time
Far too long we go when our dreams are intertwined
Far too long we go, nothing in particular wrong
Far too long we go, to turn around, blame it on a single thing

It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seems so, so right
It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seems so, so right
I just need a little more time, little more time, little more time
And I don't

I wish there's a village
We can blame it on the town
Rocking out the precipice
I don't wanna look down

I take all the blame, wasting precious time
Far too long we go when our dreams are intertwined
Far too long we go, nothing in particular wrong
Far too long we go, to turn around, blame it on a single thing

It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seems so, so right
It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seems so, so right
I just need a little more time, little more time, little more time
And I don't

It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seems so, so right
It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seemed so, so right
I just need a little more time, a little more time, a little more time
And I don't

It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seems so, so right
It seemed right, it seemed right, seemed right
Seemed so, so right
I just need a little more time, a little more time, a little more time
And I don't

Anthony Green (Circa Survive): She Loves Me So

The quality of the video is admissibly sub-par, but I kind of like the rawness of this live performance.

Ben Rector: She Is

Ramones: Poison Heart

No one ever thought this one would survive
Helpless child, gonna walk a drum beat behind
Lock you in a dream, never let you go
Never let you laugh or smile, not you.

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart
I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart.

Making friends with a homeless torn up man
He just kind of smiles, it really shakes me up.
There's danger on every corner but I'm okay
Walking down the street trying to forget yesterday.

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart.
I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart,
a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart ... yeah!

You know that life really takes its toll
And a poet's gut reaction is to search his very soul
So much damn confusion before my eyes,
But nothing seems to phase me and this one still survives.

I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart.
I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart,
Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
'Cause everybody has a poison heart.
a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.
a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.
