It cuts both ways Our love is like knife That cuts both ways It's driven deep into my heart each time That I realize How it cuts both ways Can't be together Cannot live apart We're heading straight into a broken heart But I can't stop
'Cause I feel too much to let you go I'm hurting you and it's hard I know To stay and fight for what we've got Knowing it'll never be good enough 'Cause you and I are dangerous We want too much and life ain't that way Don't ask for more Don't be a fool Haven't we already broken every rule
It cuts both ways, we're in too deep for sorry alibis Can't have regrets or even question why We can't say goodbye Because it cuts both ways No more illusions of the love we make No sacrifice would ever be too great If you would just stay
Cuts both ways Our love is like a knife that cuts both ways It's drivin' deep into my heart each time I see we livin' the lie And it cuts both ways It cuts both ways, mmm Cuts both ways Cuts both ways
As time passes after more emptied cups of coffee, she becomes weaker and weaker, barely able to punctually keep a rendezvous with Devlin in Rio at a park bench. During what she believes is their last meeting, she is exceptionally distant. He suspects that she is ill and "all mashed up," while she defiantly excuses her condition as another hangover from drinking [her thirsting for love turns to a thirsting for alcohol to escape the "dull" life he has commissioned her to have].
Devlin: It gets a bit lonely squatting on a bench all day. Alicia: Yes, Rio can be a very dull town. Devlin: What's new? Alicia: Nothing. What's new with you? Devlin: Nothing. Any domestic troubles about the other night? Alicia: No. Devlin: Any footprints in that sand yet? Alicia: No, nothing yet. Devlin: Just a social visit, huh? Alicia: A little fresh air helps. Devlin: You don't look so hot...Sick? Alicia: No. Hangover. Devlin: That's news! Back to the bottle again, huh? Alicia: It sort of lightens my chores. Devlin: Big party? Alicia: Just the family circle. Devlin: Sounds quite jolly. Alicia: It helps life in a dull town. Devlin: You ought to take it easy on that liquor. Alicia: Don't you find Rio a little hard to take too? Devlin: Not a bad town. You look all mashed up. It must have been quite an evening. Alicia: It was. Devlin: OK, if you want to play that way, go on and have fun. No reason why you shouldn't. Alicia: That's right, Dev.
They each disguise their true feelings and concerns for each other, as Devlin pursues another official line of questioning. Despondent about his departure, she tries to get Devlin to express his bottled-up emotions, but he cannot see anything but an unrepentant alcoholic lush before him. She is annoyed when he doesn't mention his leaving, so she returns the midriff scarf he lent her when they first met in Miami. He quips: "Cleaning house, hmm?" Although still wobbly and "tight," she says "goodbye" (with an air of finality) to go "back home."
In the racetrack crowd, Devlin finds Alicia (he has previously arranged to see her) and speaks to her in whispered tones. She gives him the names of Alex's dinner guests and describes the incident with the wine bottle with Emil - and the fact that she hasn't seen Emil since. Then, she admits to Devlin "for the record" that she has conquered Alexander by using her experienced sexuality to convince him of her trustworthiness. Uncomfortable with her revelations, Devlin turns icy, punishing and sarcastic. He is not willing to painfully admit that he cruelly and passively let her go to engage in the dangerous espionage plot. Now more infuriated and jealous of her association with Sebastian, and experiencing intensely-wounded pride, he spitefully denies ever having loved her in a lethal torrent of bickering words:
Alicia: You can add Sebastian's name to my list of playmates. Devlin (stunned and amazed, almost bitter): Pretty fast work. Alicia: That's what you wanted, wasn't it? Devlin: Skip it!..I've been recalling some of your remarks about being a new woman. Daisies and buttercups, wasn't it? Alicia: You idiot. What are you sore about? You knew very well what I was doing. Devlin: Did I? Alicia: You could have stopped me. Just one word. But no, you wouldn't. You threw me at him. Devlin: I threw you at nobody. Alicia: Didn't you tell me to go ahead? Devlin: A man doesn't tell a woman what to do. She tells herself. You almost had me believing in that little hokey-pokey miracle of yours. If a woman like you could ever change her spots. Alicia: Oh, you're rotten. Devlin: That's why I didn't try to stop you. And the answer had to come from you. Alicia: I see. Some kind of love test. Devlin: That's right. Alicia: Well, you never believed in me anyways so what's the difference. Devlin: Lucky for both of us I didn't. It wouldn't have been pretty if I believed in you. If I'd figured: 'She'll never be able to go through with this. She's been made over by love.' Alicia: (She hides her pain, anguish and tears in her eyes from him by viewing the race through a pair of binoculars.) If you only once had said that you loved me. Oh, Dev. Devlin: Listen. You chalked up another boyfriend. That's all. No harm done. Alicia: I hate you. Devlin: There's no occasion to. You're doing good work. Number 10's out in front. It looks as if Sebastian knows how to pick 'em. Alicia: Is that all you have to say to me? Devlin: Dry your eyes baby. It's out of character. Keep on your toes. There's a tough job around. Snap out of it. Here comes dreamboat.
To avoid dealing with the fact that her father was convicted of treason for aiding Germany during World War II, Alicia Huberman (Ingrid Bergman) loses herself in a wild life of alcohol, parties, and irresponsibility. The daughter of an American mother, Alicia views her father’s betrayal as a matter of personal shame. One day when she least expects it, a handsome American secret agent, TR Devlin (Cary Grant), comes into her life and coerces Alicia into spying on war criminals living in Brazil.
Alicia agrees to the assignment as an attempt to clear the Huberman name from its earlier infamy. Unfortunately, she must work closely with dangerous German refugees hiding out in Rio de Janeiro. She especially dreads spying on Alexander Sebastian (Claude Rains), her father’s close friend who is suspected of many war crimes. This detestable older man (and cowardly momma’s boy) has always been attracted to Alicia, thereby presenting a double danger to her.
The closer she gets to Alexander to obtain information, the more jealous and possessive he becomes toward her. The situation becomes even more complicated when Devlin and Alicia develop feelings for one another. Add an evil and conniving mother (Leopoldine Konstantin) to the mix, and Alicia faces an increasing amount of physical and emotional danger that could possibly end her life – or at least her life as she knows it.
Devlin conceals his reaction to her memories and his growing interest in her. Instead, he informs her of their arrival in Rio. In an outdoor cafe while waiting for her assignment and orders to begin, Alicia asks about the particulars of her assignment and her living situation. She also demands a cook. She refuses another drink: "No thank you, I've had enough...I'm practically on the wagon. That's quite a change." Although Devlin compliments her sobriety, he dismisses it as only a "phase" - he is wary of the former playgirl's lurid reputation. Their conversation turns amorous, as she teases and berates the cool, indifferent, distant, and sometimes nasty Devlin about his unflappable, repressed romantic emotions. Alicia is tremulously hopeful that his faith in her will be renewed, now that she is changing into a new woman and becoming transformed from her former image.
The film is known for having at the time of its production 'the longest kiss in film history.' [Director Alfred Hitchcock circumvented the Hollywood code limiting a kiss to three seconds by interrupting the kiss every three seconds, but they never once break their embrace.] The famous marathon kissing scene between Devlin and Alicia in her apartment lasts almost three minutes, beginning on a scenic Rio balcony, entirely shot in a tight closeup of their faces. They rapidly alternate passionate, clinging kisses and whispered endearments, first on the balcony over the beach, and then continuing with nibbling bites and nuzzling hugs as they walk from the balcony to the telephone and then to the front door. All the while during the sexual seduction, they discuss dinner, hold on to each other, and carry on a conversation:
Alicia: It's nice out here. Let's not go out to dinner. Let's stay here. Devlin: We have to eat. Alicia: We can eat here. I'll cook. Devlin: I thought you didn't like to cook. Alicia: No I don't like to cook, but I have a chicken in the icebox and you're eating it. Devlin: What about all the washing up afterwards? Alicia: We'll eat it with our fingers. Devlin: Don't we need any plates? Alicia: Yes, one for you and one for me. Devlin: You mind if I have dinner with you tonight? Alicia: I'd be delighted. Where are you going? Devlin: If you're going to stay in, I have to telephone the hotel, see if there are any messages. Alicia: Do I have to? Devlin: I have to. (They walk inside to the telephone where he dials the hotel for messages.) Alicia: This is a very strange love affair. Devlin: Why? (she kisses him) Alicia: Maybe the fact that you don't love me. Devlin: (He kisses her) ...When I don't love you, I'll let you know. Alicia: You haven't said anything. Devlin (kissing her): Actions speak louder than words.
aku seperti kembali nampak engkau berlari aku seperti kembali lihat engkau tersenyum dan ketawa gigi yang putih berbaris teratur hati yang bersih memancar di wajah yang luhur
kita pernah bersama berlari di padang berjalur engkau mendahului sedang kami membontoti
kita pernah bersama makan dari satu kawah dan kuali engkau membesar tinggi sedang kami sekadar begini
kita pernah bersama meniti remaja di koridor hidup yang sempit mengulit mimpi dalam dormitori yang padat mencari dan mengenal diri di atas bumi tanjung yang sarat dengan memori
kawanku aku masih nampak kau berlari berlari meninggalkan kami dan seperti biasa kau masih mendahului kami berlari ke pangkuan Ilahi

LONDON: Laman web sosial seperti Facebook dan MySpace boleh meningkatkan risiko kesihatan serius dengan mengurangkan tahap hubungan wajah ke wajah, dakwa seorang doktor. Menghantar emel kepada rakan berbanding bersemuka dengan mereka mungkin memberi kesan biologi yang negatif pada kadar tinggi, kata pakar psikologi, Dr Aric Sigman. Peningkatan masalah keterasingan akan mengubahsuai gen cara bekerja dan menjejaskan reaksi imun, paras hormon dan fungsi arteri malah turut memberi kesan kepada persembahan mental.
Ia boleh meningkatkan risiko masalah lebih serius seperti barah, angin ahmar, sakit jantung dan nyanyuk, kata Dr Sigman dalam Biologist, jurnal Institut Biologi. Laman web sosial seperti MySpace dan Facebook membolehkan orang ramai berhubungan dengan rakan menerusi internet. Mereka boleh bertukar-tukar gambar, bermain permainan dan meninggalkan mesej.
Namun, walaupun ia dicipta untuk mendekatkan hubungan, Dr Sigman berkata laman web berkenaan sebenarnya menjadikan pengunjungnya lebih terasing.
Penyelidikan menunjukkan bilangan jam yang diperuntukkan untuk berbual secara bersemuka jatuh mendadak sejak 1987 apabila penggunaan media elektronik meningkat.
“Memang ada perbezaan antara ‘kehadiran sebenar’ dan kepelbagaian maya,” kata Dr Sigman. Sesetengah gen, termasuk yang terbabit dengan sistem imun dan reaksi kepada tekanan, bertindak secara berbeza mengikut sejauh mana seseorang itu berinteraksi secara sosial dengan orang lain. – Agensi

kemesraankah yang kau idamkan dariku yang kurang petah berbahasa?
kelembutankah yang kau impikan dariku yang celaru dan serba tak kena?
mungkin aku takkan mampu menyaingi ketulusan sang romantis yang kau impi kerana aku lelaki di luar tatacara aku tak bisa hadir di pentas ini dan mengikut rentak mereka yang terlalu biasa terlalu leka dipukau himbauan fatamorgana menjadi boneka dunia
(sila lihat video Fenomena Azan utk penerangan lebih terperinci)
Azan bermula di timur Indonesia dengan bermulanya laungan azan Subuh di kepulauan Silibis pada jam 5 pagi.
Sebelum azan berakhir di Indonesia, azan telah bermula di Malaysia seterusnya diikuti oleh Myanmar dan China.
Dalam waktu 1 jam setelah azan bermula di Jakarta, azan telah bermula di Bangladesh dan berlarutan hingga ke barat India dan seterusnya ke Mumbai dan sampai ke Pakistan.
Sebelum azan berakhir di Pakistan, azan pula bermula di Afghanistan dan seterusnya.
Laungan azan yang telah bermula ditimur Indonesia pada waktu Subuh, sampai ke perairan lautan Atlantik selepas 9 jam, tetapi sejurus sebelum azan dikumandangkan di perairan lautan Atlantik, ianya telah bermula kembali di timur Indonesia menandakan masuk waktu Zuhur.
Sebaik azan Zohor tiba di Dhaka, azan Asar pula bermula di timur Indonesia, selang beberapa jam kemudian azan Maghrib pula bermula, sebelum azan Maghrib mula dikumandangkan di Sumatera, azan isya pula mula kedengaran ditimur Indonesia.
Maka, bila direnungkan kembali, berpuluh ribu muadzin di seluruh dunia saling bersahutan melaungkan azan. Insyaallah azan ini tidak akan hilang dan akan berterusan hingga ke akhir zaman.
je marche dans tes rues qui me marche sur les pieds je bois dans tes cafés
je traine dans tes métros tes trottoirs , même un peu trop je rêve dans tes bistrots
je m'assois sur tes bonds je regarde tes momuments je trainque a la santé de tes amants
je laisse couler tes seines sous tes pe...ntes arogaines toujours après la peine
je pleure dans tes taxis quand tu brilles sous la pluie ce que t'es belle en pleine nuit !! je pisse dans tes canivots c'est de la faute a Hugo que je picole ton larguot
je dors dans tes hotels j'adore ta Tour Effel au moins elle, elle est fidèle
quand je te quitte un peu loin tu ressens un chagrin ça me fais un mal de chien
I'm not a perfect person There's many things I wish I didn't do But I continue learning I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know
I've found out a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you It's something I must live with everyday And all the pain I put you through I wish that I could take it all away And be the one who catches all your tears Thats why i need you to hear
I've found out a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is You
and the reason is You [x3]
I'm not a perfect person I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know
I've found out a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show A side of me you didn't know A reason for all that I do And the reason is you
Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a light You were there like a slow torch burning I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep So many secrets I couldn't keep Promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now I'm in too deep There's no way out This time I have really led myself astray
CHORUS Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here no there
Can you help me remember how to smile Make it somehow all seem worthwhile How on earth did I get so jaded Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go I know what no one else knows Here I am just drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train
Everything is cut and dry Day and night, earth and sky Somehow I just don't believe it
CHORUS
Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughin' at the rain Little out of touch, little insane Just easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train never comin' back Runaway train tearin' up the track Runaway train burnin' in my veins Runaway but it always seems the same
The movie starts with a voice off: "My name is Dalton Russell. Pay strict attention to what I say because I choose my words carefully and I never repeat myself. I've told you my name: that's the Who. The Where could most readily be described as a prison cell. But there's a vast difference between being stuck in a tiny cell and being in prison. The What is easy: recently I planned and set in motion events to execute the perfect bank robbery. That's also the When. As for the Why: beyond the obvious financial motivation, it's exceedingly simple... because I can. Which leaves us only with the How; and therein, as the Bard would tell us, lies the rub."
And then it plays this Bollywood song...
You like Spike Lee movie? "Inside Man" is one of the best and most successful, starring Denzel Washington, Clive Owen & Jodie Foster. Seems like a conventional heist movie but... Chaiyya chaiyya...
