Censoring the Revolution
Six people at Global Revolution TV were arrested last week as the team was evicted from their headquarters in Brooklyn. The Global Revolution team has covered Occupy Wall Street through live streaming since Day 1. Global Revolution is directly responsible for bringing local as well as national and international attention, and participation, to the Occupy movement. At its outset, they operated under a tarp in the centerof Zuccotti Park, but as gears shifted through the fall and winter, Global Revolution’s base has been forced to relocate several times. On January 2nd, an eviction notice was posted on the door of the latest headquarters at 13 Thames Street in Bushwick, stating that the space is “imminently perilous to life” and that “violators of the commissioner’s Vacate Order are subject to arrest”. Interestingly, no one else in the building was evicted despite these dubious and vague claims about imminent health hazards at this address.
Among the six arrested that night was Vlad Teichberg, a former Wall Street trader who gave up his pursuit of profit for the pursuit of social justice. The charges were: Trespass, Obstructing Governmental Administration and Resisting Arrest. All six were released on the night of January 4th.

Fear is more powerful than
Fear is more powerful than the Spirit of resistence. So we just kind of gave up.

Copy Paste hero's
EDGECRUSHER is forced to take flight underground. He descends into the shadows below street level.
The only refuge he can find is within the refuse. He knows that he is safe from incident from any enforcer among the trash. He proceeds onward despite his odds.
LYRICS
Invade and encompass to judge and dissect
Witness and persecute to serve and protect
To serve, and protect to serve
To serve, and protect to serve
Watchful and aware, contrain every movement
Admit the consequences, freedom's an illusion
Where is security governed through scrutiny?
Your privacy denied, organized and confined!
No place to hide!
No place to hide!
There is no place to hide
Plugged in your mind
Conformed design
To concede your rights
Concede your mind
Surrender to authority
"All must abide and all must adhere"
Future oppression becoming more clear
This is a warning so you must take heed
This coming vision is reality
Where is security governed through scrutiny?
Your privacy denied, organized and confined!
No place to hide
No place to hide...
-The scene fades out with EDGECRUSHER running down a deserted street, away from the camera and into
the night.
Obsolete is the third album by Fear Factory, released on Roadrunner Records in 1998. It is their best selling album to date.
The album tells a story about the future of mankind and how machines have taken over humanity. This was inspired by the band's belief that humanity has become too reliant on technology.
However, a hero named Edgecrusher sets out to destroy the machines and save humanity. The story of Obsolete was inspired by books like The Boys from Brazil, Brave New World, and 1984."

I think you over did the pose. I dont know if you are a beginner or not, but even as an expert you need to know your body and be careful. If you do the pose way to long or bend your body more than it is used to, it will hurt you.
