That must be Honda's 'Cog'. A previous film, "The Way Things Go" is what 'inspired' that ad.

It took them the best part of a year to make "Cog".

I imagine by then it seemed less like a really cool creative endeavour and more like an arcane form of punishment.

Oh, and a warning... some might find it rather gross.

Just back to those retractable pissers - ahem, pissoirs - for a moment.

The article says that they "rise smoothly from the pavement at nightfall and disappear as silently at dawn". Is it just me, or does this have very real comic potential? Particularly if they disappear silently while someone's in situ?

David Hicks, Guantanamo and the shameful behaviour of the Australian govt (continued).

For anyone not familiar with the dramatis personae, David Hicks is an Australian citizen who's been in Guantanamo for 5 years without trial. Major Michael Mori is his US-appointed defence counsel. Philip Ruddock is the Australian Attorney-General, who decided not to attend a meeting today between Major Mori and the state Attorneys-General.

quote:
West Australian Attorney-General Jim McGinty said Mr Ruddock had changed his plans to avoid meeting Major Mori, saying it was not helpful he had chosen not to attend.

A protester yelled out: "He (Ruddock) is a maggot."

"That is one explanation," Mr McGinty said in response.

Quite.

Fuck Ruddock. He needs a good neck-punching.

Nice. The link above is dead, so here's a YouTube link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5NFnVuGLKY&eurl=

Speaking of gross, a copy of Skinny Puppy's video for the song "Worlock" has made it's way online, and someone even remastered it by finding the clips used on DVDs of the horror films they used. The "Worlock" video is a little legendary (or was at the time of its release) (from http://home.earthlink.net/~coreygoldberg/wvideo.htm):

quote:
The info straight from Nettwerk:

WHY ISN'T WORLOCK INCLUDED ON THE SKINNY PUPPY VIDEO
COMPILATION?

The video for "Worlock" was comprised of numerous (over 80 in fact) clips
that were cut out of horror films by various classification boards. It is
a non-stop gore-fest that was immediately banned by every video station
that had ever seen the video, as well as any border crossing guards
anywhere in the world. The video is considered pornographic for this
reason.

So, anyway, something to google if you want...

Or not: http://drylungs.com/worlock/

i was unable to open the yahoo stream (is there something yahoo can't srew up?). But did you mean this ad?

Edit: nevermind.
That ad was on tv here quite frequently during the launch period of XP. I had no idea some channels actually banned it.
