Anti-Establishment Anthem from the Eighties

Aside Markozen.com Music

The kingdom is ransacked, the jewels all taken back and the chopper descends
They’re hidden in the back, with a message on a half-baked tape with the spool going round
Saying I’m back here in this place and I could cry and there’s smoke you could click on

What are we going to do now?

Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
‘Cause working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you
When we’re working for the clampdown

We will teach our twisted speech
To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men
To be young believers

The judge said five to ten but I say double that again
I’m not working for the clampdown
No man born with a living soul
Can be working for the clampdown

Kick over the wall ’cause government’s to fall
How can you refuse it?
Let fury have the hour, anger can be power
Do you know that you can use it?

The voices in your head are calling
Stop wasting your time, there’s nothing coming
Only a fool would think someone could save you

The men at the factory are old and cunning
You don’t owe nothing, so boy, get running
It’s the best years of your life they want to steal

But you grow up and you calm down
And you’re working for the clampdown
You start wearing the blue and brown
And you’re working for the clampdown

So you got someone to boss around
It makes you feel big now
You drift until you brutalize

Make your first kill now

In these days of evil presidentes
Working for the clampdown
But lately one or two has fully paid their due
For working for the clampdown

Hah, get along, get along
Working for the clampdown
Hah, get along, get along
Working for the clampdown

Yeah, I’m working hard in Harrisburg
Working hard in Petersburg
Working for the clampdown
Working for the clampdown
Hah, get along, get along

Begging to be melted down
Get along, get along
Work
Work
Work
And I give away no secrets
Work
Work
More work
More work
Work
Work
Work
Work

The Zhuhai Chimelong Marine Science Park in Zhuhai, China, is famous both for its impressive offering of rare marine wildlife from all over the world and its sci-fi-inspired design.

Announced in 2015, the Zhuhai Chimelong Marine Science Park immediately captured people’s imaginations with its futuristic design reminiscent of alien motherships depicted in sci-fi flicks and video games. Described as the largest indoor marine science park in the world, with more than 100,000 marine animals of around 300 species, as well as 100 kinds of living coral split into 10 themed areas. Originally scheduled to open in 2021, after ten years of planning and just over 5 years of actual construction, the giant marine science park only opened its gates to the public this month.

The Zhuhai Chimelong Marine Science Park has a total length of approximately 650 meters and covers a total area of about 400,000 square meters. It can accommodate over 50,000 visitors per day and boasts several world records, including the world’s largest aquarium display window and the world’s largest living coral tank.

Built by Chimelong Group, which also owns the Zhuhai Chimelong International Ocean Resort, the Zhuhai Chimelong Marine Science Park cost $1.1 billion, making it the most expensive marine science park, as well as the largest indoor one.

The Windsor Hotel in Winnipeg Burns Down

Aside Markozen.com Buildings, Winnipeg

187 Garry Street was constructed in 1903 and designed as a boarding house by the owner, Charles H. Forrester. In 1910 the building was redesigned as a hotel. After construction was complete the Le Claire Hotel opened with three floors of suites and a small one storey gentlemen’s club attached.

In 1930 the hotel went through a redesign to become The Windsor Hotel, which is the current hotel name. The total costs of the renovation was $100,000 which included extensive renovations to the hotel’s bar and lounge.

By the 1990s the old gentlemen’s bar and lounge had become The Windsor Hotel’s Blues Bar. The small one storey attachment to the hotel would host jazz nights in which local jazz musicians would play for small crowds. By 1994 the Blues Bar became so popular that an addition was required to accommodate the many patrons. The much larger Blues Bar was newly designed with a Garry Street entrance and is decorated with paintings of popular blues artists. The mural on the North elevation of the hotel was painted in 1995 by Joe Mallzar. The image is of the Windsor’s logo. A second prominent painting is on the North elevation of the 1994 Blues Bar. This image depicts Charlie Chaplin as he contemplates continuing his career on stage. Chaplin was a previous customer at the Le Claire hotel in 1913.

Convicted Murderer Who Escaped Pennsylvania Prison Climbs Like Spider-Man

CNN — 

The manhunt continued Wednesday for murderer Danelo Cavalcante, who escaped from a Pennsylvania prison last week by thwarting newly installed razor wire put in place after another inmate briefly broke out a few months ago, authorities said at a Wednesday news conference.

Cavalcante, 34, who was spotted again in the area Tuesday by a resident, got free from Chester County Prison last Thursday by “crab walking” between two walls, pushing his way through razor wire, running across a roof, scaling another fence, and getting through more razor wire, Chester County Prison Acting Warden Howard Holland told reporters.

Surveillance video from the prison shows the inmate in the exercise yard looking through a window in a door then placing his hands on one wall and his feet on another. He shimmies up the opening and out of view.
