Eleven. Exactly. One louder.

Written by Man Points

When you can't crank it up to 11, you just need to get a bigger set of speakers. TopCultured have made a great collection of the biggest they could find.

Great Job?

Written by Man Points

We still cant decide if getting to make videos like these make for a great job, or if it's a little bit too painstaking.

Ghost Town and Land of the Wolves

Written by Man Points

On the morning of 28th April 1986 workers at the Forsmark Nuclear Power Plant in Sweden were found to have elevated levels of nuclear particles in their clothing. It was the search for a leak at this facility that led to the first indication to the outside world that there was any problem at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Soviet Union (now Ukraine).

 

At http://www.elenafilatova.com/ Filatova Elena Vladimirovna has a great series of photos from inside the restricted area around the former power plant.

Merry Christmas

Written by Man Points

Just to say a Merry Christmas from all at Man-Points.co.uk - have a good one!!


Ok, it's not a link, but enjoy...

A Christmas Story

'Twas the night before Christmas--Old Santa was pissed.
He cussed out the elves and threw down his list.
Miserable little brats, ungrateful little jerks.
I have a good mind to scrap the whole works!

I've busted my ass for damn near a year,
Instead of "Thanks Santa"--what do I hear?
The old lady bitches cause I work late at night.
The elves want more money--The reindeer all fight.

Rudolph got drunk and goosed all the maids.
Donner is pregnant and Vixen has AIDS.
And just when I thought that things would get better
Those assholes from the IRS sent me a letter,
They say I owe taxes--if that ain't damn funny
Who the hell ever sent Santa Claus any money?

And the kids these days--they all are the pits
They want the impossible--Those mean little shits
I spent a whole year making wagons and sleds
Assembling dolls...Their arms, legs and heads
I made a ton of yo yo's--No request for them,
They want computers and robots...they think - I'm IBM!

Flying through the air...dodging the trees
Falling down chimneys and skinning my knees
I'm quitting this job there's just no enjoyment
I'll sit on my fat ass and draw unemployment.

If there's no Christmas this year, now you know the reason,
I found me a redhead. I'm going SOUTH for the season!!

Christmas Number 1 Chart Race Gap Just 9000 sales

Written by Man Points

After an unprecedented internet campaign by Tracy and John Morter on Facebook to get Rage Against The Machine's track "Killing In The Name" to the top spot for the UK Christmas Number 1, on Friday the Official Charts Company (OCC) reported that the gap is down to just 9000 sales with Rage Against the Machine still leading but the margin is decreasing and expected to continue to decrease over the weekend.

 

The official facebook group has had problems with facebook connectivity all week but is now back up and running at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2228594104&ref=ts


It has also been announced today that Sir Paul McCartney is now backing Rage to hit the top spot for this years number one but it just isn't going to happen without continued support from the online community.  The official facebook group has 800 000+ members but there are only 306 000 sales of the Rage Against the Machine Track this week which means a whopping half a million users who have signed up to the group haven't purchased the track.
