| Down With The Sickness by Disturbed |
 |
"Down With the Sickness" is a single by
American rock band Disturbed. The song was
recorded in late 1999, and was featured on
their 2000 debut album, The Sickness. One of
its more memorable traits is David Draiman's
percussive staccato howl which ends the
ascending intro and leads to the first bridge
of the song (approximately thirty one seconds
into it). It is also well known for a "child
abuse" segment not played in radio-friendly
versions. The "child abuse" segment has
vocalist Draiman portraying a boy begging his
mom not to hit him anymore, after which it
shifts to bitter and extremely profane words
toward the mother. It can be heard about 3:11
into the uncut version. The song has become
one of Disturbed's best-known songs and is
their only single to have gone Gold.
Draiman has stated that it is meant to be
"Mother Society" beating her child who is
different. It is a satire on how society
looks down on anything not conformed to "the
mainstream." It is, in fact, not to convey
actual child abuse.A music video was produced
for the song, which is composed of live
concert footage. The music video cuts out the
"child abuse" segment.The song rose to number
5 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks, number 8 on
the Modern Rock Tracks in September 2001, and
number 31 in the Hot Ringtones category,
making it one of Disturbed's most successful
songs. The song has been used in numerous
movies and TV shows.The song has been covered

Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine

| Suicide bombing at Marriott Hotel in Islamabad 60 dead |
 |
A SUICIDE bomber has detonated a truck packed
with explosives at the Marriott Hotel in
Islamabad, killing at least 60 people in a
brazen attack in the heart of Pakistan's
capital.
Police said 200 people were also wounded in
the massive explosion, which ruptured a gas
pipeline and triggered a huge blaze that
engulfed the heavily-guarded site in flames.
Many victims leapt to their deaths from the
upper floors of the hotel to escape the fire,
a senior security official said, and there
were fears more were buried in the debris.
Officials said they were worried that the
hotel, a key meeting place for foreigners,
would collapse.
The attack came hours after new President
Asif Ali Zardari - who faces a serious
challenge in reining in al-Qaeda and Taliban
militants - delivered his first address to
parliament, which is just a few hundred
metres away.
So far, two of the dead are known to be
foreigners and there are reports foreign
victims are being treated in three of the
city's hospitals.
Smoke and flames were shooting out of several
floors of the ruined hotel. An AFP
photographer saw mutilated bodies amid the
carnage before police and fire officials
pushed back the media in case the building
came down.
"The death toll is 60 and it may go up," said
a senior security official, who asked not to
be named.
The bombing came as the Marriott's
restaurants were packed with families
breaking their daily Ramadan fast. The
security official said women, children and
foreigners were among the dead.
The Government ordered the army in to help
clear away the piles of concrete and debris
after the powerful explosion, which left a
huge crater about six metres deep and 12
metres wide, at the hotel's main entrance.
Interior ministry official Rehman Malik told
reporters the Government had received word of
a possible attack near the parliamentary
offices.
"We had intelligence reports two days ago
that some incident might take place."
It was one of the worst attacks ever in
Islamabad, and came amid an escalating
campaign of bombings and suicide attacks by
militants that has killed more than 1200
people in the past year.
IntelCenter, a US organisation that tracks
militants, said an al-Qaeda leader who
claimed responsibility for a previous bombing
in Pakistan threatened new attacks in a video
this month to mark the anniversary of
September 11.
Pakistan has been a key ally in the US-led
"war on terror" since 9/11, even though
critics have repeatedly insisted that
elements of the country's powerful
intelligence service give clandestine backing
to Islamist militants.
The Bush administration has accused Taliban
Islamic militants and al-Qaeda followers of
using the country's unruly border areas as
bases from which to direct a growing deadly
insurgency in neighbouring Afghanistan.
