Glamis Videos - Live Your Life!

Merry — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 07:21:07 +0000

In contrast to the last time when we discussed Best NSync Music Videos, today we are talking about Glamis or Glamis Sand Dunes. So, if you are a fan enjoy videos below, but if you don’t know what it is let me explain a bit about this destination. The dunes of Glamis are known as the most popular off-road place situated in Southern California at the border with Arizona and Baja California del Norte.

The peaceful and silent dunes get overcrowded at holiday weekends when hundreds of thousands of visitors get together in such famous areas as Oldsmobile Hill and Gecko Road so that to ride up and down on quads, dirt bikes, rails etc. Such a fascinating show draws a huge number of spectators. Now, as I have already promised I offer some breathtaking Glamis videos.

Glamis stops are so popular and successful due to fun-filled gatherings that include family-friendly activities such as a scavenger hunt, bon fire, movie premier, a Show and Shine contest, KidZone, Karaoke Party, raffle, an ATV certification course, dune clean-up, and other.

The Glamis Sand Dunes are also known as Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area. According to researches, more than 1.4 million fans arrive here annually. The area occupies 72 km long and 10 km wide. Lots of you know the name of Algodones Dunes that can be translated from Spanish as Cotton Dunes, but I bet those who crashed there wouldn’t agree.

In spite of enormous popularity of the Glamis Dunes, there are lots of arguments and discussions aimed at restricting or even closing of the recreational area. Naturalists are meant to shut Glamis down because of an endangered plant. They have already shut some dunes and mean to continue, which caused burst of indignation from part of fans. But today when they are free and open to public, enjoy them and live your life with Glamis!

As far as the last Glamis events are concerned, they took place in March 2009 and in August 2009. Glamis fans may also mark their calendars for future Gordon’s Well in November 2009 and Dumont in January 2010. But now take your time and enjoy more Glamis videos.

Remembering the Best: Fiddler on the Roof

Merry — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 08:40:50 +0000

On August 30, 2009 closes ‘Fiddler on the Roof’: The Farewell Tour. It will take place in Portland, Oregon. It has only left for classics lovers to wait for another chance to see the favorite musical, songs and actors.
The most popular Broadway musical of all times and nations opened on September 22, 1964 at the Imperial Theatre. Its popularity was shocking. The next day after the opening night it became clear that the musical would come into history. The best testimony to it is 3242 performances for 8 years and 9 months and 9 Tony Awards received in 1965.

Initially, Fiddler on The Roof was entitled Tevye. The reason is the story is based on Tevye and his Dauhters (or Tevye the Milkman) tale.
Fiddler on the Roof was screened as early as 1971 by Norman Jewison. It turned out to be a real success. The film came into top 10 best films-musicals along with “Mary Poppins”, “My Fair Lady” and “West Side Story”. The film received 3 Oscars: the best screen version, the best sound and music; it received a Golden Globe as the best film (comedy or musical) as well.

Local color and singularity of the Jewish mentality, peculiar humor and almost natural optimism of the nation which had got stronger after numerous wanderings all over the world and constant prosecutions, tragicomic emotions of the protagonist observing the collapse of the world — all of it agitates hearts and souls of people throughout many years.

The film is serious and philosophical, despite an abundance of cheerful moments which help to restrain tears.
There are lots of interesting facts connected with the world-known musical. For example, on May 26, 2008 TIME magazine reported that the Fiddler on the Roof became the 7th most frequently performed musical by U.S. high schools.

Nowadays, you can hardly find something as striking, charming and unique as Fiddler on the Roof. So it is extremely important to appreciate such masterpieces and not to forget about them.

Alabama UFO 10/14/08: What Secrets Does YouTube Hide?

Merry — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 13:57:04 +0000

A woman living in Australia, Blossom Goodchild, says that representatives of the “Federation of Light” contacted her via mental telepathy to communicate about the Oct. 14 event. Some people think, Goodchild’s claims are highly questionable or even ridiculous. Others may find themselves believing or hoping that such a development occurs. I was trying to find some videos with her, because the best way to find out if a person lies or not is to see him live. And can’t tell you the extent of my surprise when I found that no video on YouTube related either to her or to 10/14/08 is available!

You go to YouTube, enter “Blossom Goodchild” or “10/14/08” in the search field, press the button and find out that no video related to these topics is available! I can’t say I’m a very suspicious person, but this fact makes me feel that something is being hidden from me! Did aliens steal all the videos? Or does the government try to hide something from us? That is the question!

According to Goodchild, the craft will present itself so that it can be seen and demonstrate to humans that other beings exist and are visiting Earth. She says they will be visible for three days and that they come in peace and love. Goodchild has clarified one point of the message she claims to have received. The beings contacting her gave her the word “Alabama.” But she says they did not explicitly say that would be the location of the large craft’s appearance. Goodchildstates that they told her, “We give to you the name of Alabama.” Goodchild states that the messages she received from the Federation of Light seemed to indicate that the large craft would be seen in the “southern hemisphere” of Earth. Obviously, the state of Alabama is in the northern hemisphere. Interestingly, she says they told her in response to her question about this, “In days of old, it used to be.”

So, according to this strange woman, today is the day for all of us to remember.

Another source, probably based on Goodchild’s words is the blog “10-14-08: The Prediction That Will Change Humanity” by name, also tells us about the today’s contact. And suggests to watch the sky intensely careful.

I was lucky to come across this video, shot in December 2006 in Alabama. There can be seen some strange blurry object hovering in the sky. So, this is how it was in 2006. What shall we expect this time then?

Anyway, please have your camera with you today wherever you go. And don’t even try to upload your UFO videos on YouTube. They won’t show them anyway.

Merry — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 13:32:32 +0000

We are all very excited about the upcoming elections. The candidates are doing their best which must be not that easy… I was a bit shocked with the amount of parodies I happened to come across on YouTube, while searching for some videos with them… Here is a compilation of the best parodies on the web:

Obama Girl vs McCain Girl Olympics Part 1:

The video entitled: “Is McCain Palin’s Bitch?“… Probably, the most evil parodie:

One more for obama: “Obama’s Secret Lover”

And offcourse, Matt Groening couldn’t stay away:

Well… Good luck to the candidates!
