Older adults 'no old fools' on cybersex
Posted Fri Oct 24, 2008
Cybersex is not just for the young ... older adults have a voracious appetite for the internet and sex."That old stereotype that you get to a certain age and you don't want to do it any more is not true, ... If older people are sexually active and it is good for their health then how do we design nursing homes to cater for that"

AC/DC、『BLACK ICE/ブラック・アイス』が最後か?
2008-08-21
“ロックンロールは20世紀が生んだ最大の文化である”とはブライアン・ジョンソンのセリフだが、そのロックンロールを大陸のゆりかごでどでかくどでかく育んだバンドこそAC/DCである。どこを切ってもAC/DCという、金太郎飴のような彼らのロックンロールは、どれだけ年齢を重ねてもパワフルでエネルギッシュ。ランドセルを背負える50代のオヤジが、他にこの世のどこにいる? …とはいえ、今作が9年ぶりという彼らのペースを考えると、もしかしたらこれが最後のオリジナルアルバムか…という懸念も。


Gen Y needs to find its own AC/DC
Rainee Lyleson
October 15, 2008
why do teenagers still listen to them? Rock music of the 1960s, '70s and '80s reflected the social and political rebellion of the time. Fuelled by the Vietnam War and women's and civil rights movements, the teenagers of the '60s were a generation willing to fight for a better world...

Speaker: Dog-eat-dog mentality is root of trouble
Published: Sep 21, 2008

The global financial crisis is proof that the pursuit of money and success is pointless, Pope Benedict XVI has told a meeting of bishops in Rome.


Rudd Blasts The Greed Mantra
October 05, 2008
GREED is no longer good, according to Prime Minister Kevin Rudd who has blamed American "freemarket ideologues" for the global financial crisis.
Speaking at a business forum on Friday, he described the crisis as a triumph of perverted values over morality.

Mozart - レクイエム ニ短調 K.626
第3曲:セクエンツィア(続誦)涙の日

Metallica - nothing else matters

Metallica - the unforgiven


// Mozart and Metallica fans kindred spirits: research

Although fans of bands like Metallica are traditionally portrayed as work-shy, long-haired students and lovers of Mozart are seen as sober and hard-working, researchers found that both music types attract creative people who are at ease with themselves but can be introverted.

"One of the most surprising things is the similarities between fans of classical music and heavy metal. They're both creative and at ease but not outgoing.

"The general public has held a stereotype of heavy metal fans being suicidally depressed and of being a danger to themselves and society in general. But they are quite delicate things."

Apocalyptica - path

// The Republic, by Plato > BOOK VII.

And now, I said, let me show in a figure how far our nature is enlightened or unenlightened: --Behold! human beings living in a underground den ... And do you see, I said, men passing along the wall carrying all sorts of vessels, and statues and figures of animals made of wood and stone and various materials, which appear over the wall? Some of them are talking, others silent.

You have shown me a strange image, and they are strange prisoners.

Like ourselves, I replied; and they see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another,... And suppose further that the prison had an echo which came from the other side, would they not be sure to fancy when one of the passers-by spoke that the voice which they heard came from the passing shadow?

No question, he replied.

To them, I said, the truth would be literally nothing but the shadows of the images.

That is certain.

And now look again, and see what will naturally follow if the prisoners are released and disabused of their error. At first, when any of them is liberated and compelled suddenly to stand up and turn his neck round and walk and look towards the light, he will suffer sharp pains; the glare will distress him, and he will be unable to see the realities of which in his former state he had seen the shadows; and then conceive some one saying to him, that what he saw before was an illusion, ....

"The old-fashioned respect for the young is fast dying out"
- The Importance of Being Earnest, by Oscar Wilde.


" The pulse of joy that beats in us at twenty becomes sluggish. Our limbs fail, our senses rot. We degenerate into hideous puppets, haunted by the memory of the passions of which we were too much afraid, and the exquisite temptations that we had not the courage to yield to. Youth! Youth! There is absolutely nothing in the world but youth! ... You said to me once that pathos left you unmoved, but that beauty, mere beauty, could fill your eyes with tears. ... We live in an age that reads too much to be wise, and that thinks too much to be beautiful.... Ugliness was the one reality."
- The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde


" LORD ILLINGWORTH. Don't be afraid, Gerald. Remember that you've got on your side the most wonderful thing in the world - youth! There is nothing like youth. The middle-aged are mortgaged to Life. The old are in life's lumber-room. But youth is the Lord of Life. Youth has a kingdom waiting for it. Every one is born a king, and most people die in exile, like most kings. To win back my youth, Gerald, there is nothing I wouldn't do - except take exercise, get up early, or be a useful member of the community."
- A Woman of No Importance, by Oscar Wilde


"Cultivated idleness seems to me to be the proper occupation for man."
- To the Editor of the Scots Observer August 16 1890, by Oscar Wilde

天下皆「Fair」の「Fair」たるを知る、斯れ「Foul」のみ

.
Come, let me sing into your ear;
Those dancing days are gone,
All that silk and satin gear;
Crouch upon a stone,
Wrapping that foul body up
In as foul a rag:
I carry the sun in a golden cup.
The moon in a silver bag
....
- "Those Dancing Days Are Gone"
poem by William Butler Yeats

"Those Dancing Days Are Gone"
sung by Carla Bruni


"fair" ~ "foul";
"soul" ~ "body";
"youthfulness" ~ "senility";
"physical" ~ "intellectual";
"growth" ~ "decay";
"heavenly mansion" ~ "foul sty"; .... ....


Fair and foul are near of kin,
And fair needs foul

- "Crazy Jane Talks with the Bishop", 1933, William Butler Yeats


天下皆"Fair"の"Fair"たるを知る、斯れ"Foul"のみ。
故に有無相生じ、"Fair""Foul"相成し ....


「天下皆たるを知る、斯れのみ。皆善の善たるを知る、斯れ不善のみ。....
故に有無相生じ、難易相成し、長短相形し、高下相傾け、音声相和し、前後相随ふ。」
- 老子

と相去ること幾何ぞ。善と悪と相去ること何若。
人の畏るる所は畏れざるべからざるも、荒として其れ未だ央きざるかな。」
- 老子
Translation: Arthur Waley, 1934
Between "Wei" and "O"
What after all is the difference?
Can it be compared to the difference between good and bad?
The saying “what others avoid I too must avoid”
How false and superficial it is?

- Dao De Jing

Translation: Witter Bynner, 1944
Categorical this, categorical that,
What slightest use are they!
If one man leads, another must follow,
How silly that is and how false!

// Life Ain't What It Seems - John Butler Trio

Lyrics:

Strange as it may be
Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems
It's like going to war to make peace
Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems

Like the old man out there he lives on the streets
And now he's asking for a dollar off everybody he meets
Never knew he used to be a milloinare on wall street
Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems

Just like that plane you're late for leaving without you
And now it changes all your plans and puts you in a bad mood
And the plane ends up crashing but at the time man you would not have a clue
That being late would be so good and life is strange this true

So sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems
Sometimes good presents come in bad wrapping
Strange as it may be
Sometimes bad presents come in good wrapping ...

// Nowhere Man - John Butler Trio

Lyrics:

I'm in and I'm out
Alien, from somewhere else
Don't know what the hell I be on about
From here and there
Belong, nowhere
Seems so many know the name... now
And things don't seem to be the same
But are somehow
'Cos all my life i've lived on the... outside
And now I'm in, but in nowhere

Nowhere man ...
Strangely enough I'm more like a lone tree
I love those forests but alone better suits me ...

「沈黙の正午」





「沈黙の正午」:ダンテ・ゲイブリエル・ロセッティ
"Silent Noon"
sonnet by Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-1882)

Lyrics:

Your hands lie open in the long fresh grass, -
The finger-points look through like rosy blooms:
Your eyes smile peace. The pasture gleams and glooms
'Neath billowing skies that scatter and amass.

All round our nest, far as the eye can pass,
Are golden kingcup-fields with silver edge
Where the cow-parsley skirts the hawthorn-hedge.
'Tis visible silence, still as the hour-glass.

Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragon-fly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky: -
So this wing'd hour is dropt to us from above.
Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower,
This close-companioned inarticulate hour
When twofold silence was the song of love.


「愛の哲学」:パーシー・ビッシュ・シェリー
Love's Philosophy
poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

Lyrics:

The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of Heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single,
All things by a law divine
In one spirit meet and mingle -
Why not I with thine?


See the mountains kiss high Heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea -
What are all these kissings worth
If thou kiss not me?

「蜂が蜜を吸うところで」
"Where the Bee Sucks"
by Shakespeare
[The Tempest] Act V, scene I

Lyrics:

Where the bee sucks, there suck I;
In a cowslip's bell I lie;
There I couch when owls do cry.
On the bat's back I do fly
After summer merrily.
Merrily, merrily shall I live now
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.


「恋する若者と娘がいた」
"It Was a Lover and His Lass"
by Shakespeare
[As You Like It] Act V, scene III

Lyrics:

It was a lover and his lass,
With a hey, and a ho, and a hey nonino,
That o'er the green cornfield did pass

In springtime, the only pretty ringtime,
When birds do sing, hey ding a ding, ding,
Sweet lovers love the spring.

Between the acres of the rye,
With a hey, and a ho, and a hey nonino,
These pretty country folks would lie
In springtime, &c. ... ...

「来たれ、死よ」
"Come Away, Death". by Shakespeare.
Twelfth Night, Act II, scene IV

Lyrics:

CLOWN:
Come away, come away, death,
And in sad cypress let me be laid;
Fly away, fly away breath;
I am slain by a fair cruel maid.
My shroud of white, stuck all with yew,
O, prepare it!
My part of death, no one so true
Did share it.

Not a flower, not a flower sweet
On my black coffin let there be strown;
Not a friend, not a friend greet
My poor corpse, where my bones shall be thrown:
A thousand thousand sighs to save,
Lay me, O, where
Sad true lover never find my grave,
To weep there!

DUKE ORSINO:
There's for thy pains.

CLOWN:
No pains, sir: I take pleasure in singing, sir.

DUKE ORSINO:
I'll pay thy pleasure then.

CLOWN:
Truly, sir, and pleasure will be paid, one time or another.

Now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white;
Nor waves the cypress in the palace walk;
Nor winks the gold fin in the porphyry font:
The firefly wakens: waken thou with me.

now folds thy lily all her sweetness up
and sinks into the bossom of the lake
so fold thyself, thy dearest thou,
and sink into my bossom
and be lost in me.

Whiskey In The Jar







 

The Dubliners | Thin Lizzy
   Luke Kelly | Metallica

 


// Lyrics - Whiskey In The Jar

As I was going over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting.
I first produced me pistol, and then produced me rapier.
Said stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver,

musha ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'o
whack for the daddy 'o
there's whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money, and it made a pretty penny.
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny.
She said and she swore, that she never would deceive me,
but the devil take the women, for they never can be easy

I went into my chamber, all for to take a slumber,
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder.
But Jenny blew me charges and she filled them up with water,
Then sent for captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter.

It was early in the morning, as I rose up for travel,
Up come a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrel.
I first produced me pistol, for she stole away me rapier,
But I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken.

There're some men take delight in the carriages a rolling,
But others take delight in the hurling and the bowling.
But I take delight in the juice of the barley,
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

If anyone can aid me, it's my brother in the army,
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney.
And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' through Killkenney,
And I swear he'll treat me better than me own a-sporting Jenny

Irish: Carraig Fhearghais

District (pop., 2001: 37,659), northeastern Northern Ireland.

トラリーのバラ (The Rose Of Tralee)




// The Rose of Tralee
How The Ballad Came To Be

One of Ireland's most popular songs was written by William Pembroke Mulchinock who fell in love with one Mary O'Connor, a maid in service to his parents. Fact or fiction, the following account, which was compiled from various sources, tells of an unrequited romance between a wealthy Protestant lad and a poor Catholic colleen.//


    蒼い月は 山から昇り
    日は落つる 海が青い
    君と逸る 泉が浄い
    トラリーの谷で 美しい
    (「トラリーのバラ」の歌詞より。意訳: 三千絵)
 


// Charles William Glover, (1797-1868)?(1806-1863)?
before 1850 by: C. Mordaunt Spencer,
†1888 or William Pembroke Mulchinock

Lyrics

1. The pale moon was rising above yon green mountain,
The sun was declining beneath the blue sea,
When I strayed with my love to the pure crystal fountain,
That stands in the beautiful vale of Tralee.

Chorus:
She was lovely and fair, as the rose of the summer,
Yet t'was not her beauty alone that won me.
Oh no, t'was the truth in her eye ever dawning,
That made me love Mary, the Rose of Tralee!

2. The cool shades of evening their mantle were spreading,
And Mary, all smiling, stood list'ning to me,
The moon through the valley her pale rays was shedding,
When I won the heart of the Rose of Tralee.

Chorus: Added later, perhaps by the original author.

In the far fields of India, 'mid wars dreadful thunder,
Her voice was a solace and comfort to me,
But the chill hand of death has now rent us asunder,
I'm lonely tonight for the Rose of Tralee.

モリー・マローン (Molly Malone)




Molly Malone

Lyrics:

In Dublin's fair city,
Where girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on
sweet Molly Malone,
As she pushed her wheelbarrow
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels,
alive, alive oh!"

Alive, alive oh! alive, alive oh!
Crying, "Cockles and mussels,
alive, alive oh!"

Now she was a fishmonger,
And sure twas no wonder,
For so were her mother
and father before,
And they each wheeled their barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels,
alive, alive oh!"

She died of a fever,
And no one could save her,
And that was the end of
sweet Molly Malone.
Now her ghost wheels her barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels,
alive, alive oh!



// Irish Historical Mysteries: Molly Malone

As well as being known and sung internationally, the popular song 'Cockles and Mussels' has become a sort of unofficial anthem of Dublin city. The song's tragic heroine Molly Malone and her barrow have come to stand as one of the most familiar symbols of the capital. In addition, Molly's international pulling power is shown by the fact that she scores hundreds of 'hits' on the Internet, many of them relating to 'Irish pubs' bearing her name. It seems perfectly natural therefore that Molly should have been commemorated by erecting a statue to her in Dublin, which monument has become a familiar landmark at the corner of Grafton Street and Suffolk Street. Let us now travel back in time to see what we can find out about the real Molly Malone.
//


// The Irish Diaspora

During the years of 1845 to 1850, Ireland suffered through a terrible famine. At the end of it, fully one quarter of the population had died, and half had emigrated all over the world, but especially to America.

Once established in other parts of the world, this Irish population started looking back to its roots, including the traditional forms of music. The locus of social interaction had changed from homes and churches to the local pub, where musicians would meet after the work day and exchange tunes.
//


// Molly Malones Irish Pub encapsulates the authentic Irish atmosphere, bringing a considerable slice of Ireland to Townsville, North Queensland.
