Fall is in the air and that means the lakes and waterways are getting less crowded and the water is glass. These are all great, except for one small thing… the water gets cold, really fast. Don't get left at the dock because you weren't prepared for the dropping water temps. Check out the O'Neill Boost and Assault Hybrid Drysuits and get ready to extend your season indefinitely.
Based in the Northwest, we've had our fair share of cold water riding experiences. Cold, wet, and numb isn't the most enjoyable way to spend your day out on the water. The O'Neill Boost and Assault Drysuits keep you warm and comfortable in water and air temperatures as low as 40 degrees.
Randall the Vandall Harris is the only rider we know of that can wear street clothes behind the boat and get away with it… up until now. The O'Neill Boost's full baggy shell gives you the option to wear your street clothes underneath. Can anyone say: Lunch break wakesurf sets?
O'Neill designed both of these drysuits to keep you comfortable in water temperatures that would otherwise be unbearable. Stop re-enacting the Polar Bear Plunge every time you want to take a ride and get back to enjoying your time on the water.
The O'Neill Boost's full baggy membrane is 100% waterproof. Aside from a few drops of water coming through a seal during a massive wipeout, this suit will keep you completely dry.
Don't get us wrong. We love a nice stretchy wetsuit, but they can be a huge hassle to get on and off. O'Neill drysuits are simple to put on and quick to take off.
The Boost Drysuit's full baggy shell makes it so that you can fit almost any article of clothing underneath the suit. This also makes each of the Boost sizes versatile enough to fit multiple riders on the boat (assuming they are around the same size).]]>
The 1-1/8″ Flow Rite Barbed Elbow Quick Release Connector (Part #W746) is designed to work in conjunction with the Fly High 1″ Quick Release Connect (Part #W743). We often hear from our customers that they are concerned that these fittings won't work for their boat because it has a 1″ hose… We are here to dispel the rumors and explain how the Flow Rite 1-1/8″ Quick Connect Fittings work with a 1″ hose.
First, lets talk about what both of these fittings do for your ballast. The Fly High 1″ Quick Release Connect #W743 is designed to integrate Fly High Ballast Bags to a factory ballast system. This fitting easily screws into your Fly High ballast bags for a quick, water tight seal. The Flow Rite 1-1/8″ Barbed Elbow Quick Connect Fitting is designed to make a secure and water-tight connection with the Fly High 1″ Quick Release Connect
Many of the major wakeboard boat manufacturers like Mastercraft, Supra, Moomba, and Axis Wake Research all use these fittings for their factory ballast system. *Add links
The most common question we get is this "How will my 1″ hose work with a 1-1/8″ fitting?" Lucky for us, the high quality marine grade hose we use is flexible, so the two fittings end up working together. If you are having any issues getting the hose onto the fitting we recommend trying to heat it up with a blow dryer so the vinyl material has a chance to soften.

The X-Link Ballast System is designed for owners with pre-2013 boat models that want a SurfGate or NSS style system. Installing the X-Link system gives you the option to quickly transfer water from one ballast bag to the other in half the time. Anyone that's been on a boat with regular and goofy wakesurf riders knows how cumbersome it can be to switch the ballast between riders. The X-Link System takes the process down from 10-18 minutes in a 750 pound bag to right around 5 minutes. Leaving you with more time for wakesurfing and less time waiting for your bags to fill and drain.
The X-Link Ballast System utilizes one drain port on each bag in your rear lockers. If you plan on installing the X-Link into an already existing ballast system, make sure that the bags located in your lockers each have an existing free drain port that the X-Link can connect to. If the ballast system you are installing is a new system with new ballast bags, make sure that each bag has an extra port that the X-Link system can connect to. Click here for a list of X-Link Compatible Bags.
When you are ready to switch from regular to goofy or goofy to regular riders, hit the custom X-Link switch on your dash to start moving water at 100 lbs. per minute. Once the bag is close to full, switch off the X-Link and let your factory ballast system fill the remainder. Congratulations! You just switched sides in half the time.
We've seen a lot of Mid-2000 Malibu owners use the X-Link to get a similar result to what they would achieve with a 2013 Malibu with the SurfGate system.
If a customer uses the Malibu Piggy Back Kit with the Straight Line or Fly High 750lb. bags they will see fill times of 10 to 13 minutes and drain times of 15 to 18 minutes. If the port side factory ballast and 750lb. bag are full switching riders would take 15 to 18 minutes to complete. We hit fill on the starboard factory ballast, drain on the port factory ballast and port to starboard on the X-Link. In under 5 minutes the transfer from port to starboard will be completed as the X-Link pump can move 100 lbs. of water a minute.
The full X-Link kit comes with a Johnson Ultra Ballast Pump, all the electrical wiring, fittings, and 1″ ballast hose.

Wakeboard and Wakesurf tower racks are a great option for boaters that want to keep their gear off the seats and floor of their boat. The benefit to having tower racks is twofold. The first benefit is that tower racks free up extra seating and storage space in your boat and the second benefit is that it protects your board from getting damaged by a wayward foot or closing compartment.
The Skylon tower racks we carry come with CNC'd forks, molded rubber EPDM inserts and a 1/4″ marine grade bungee to keeps your boards nice and secure.
Double Wakesurf Racks
The Skylon Double Wakesurf Racks are designed to hold wakesurf and skim style boards securely. Check out our list below of boards that don't fit in Skylon wakesurf racks. All the other boards from Liquid Force, Ronix, and Slingshot will fit in the racks.
*Note: The Ronix Duke Longboard, Slingshot SP and Liquid Force Chase Sixer will not fit in these racks.
Combination Wakeboard and Wakesurf Racks
Combination Wakeboard and Wakesurf Racks like the Skylon Wakeboard and Wakesurf Combo give you a single fork for wakeboards and one for wakesurf boards. These combination racks are popular because most people have a mix of boards on their boat.
*Note: The 1-1/4″ wakeboard fork should fit all wakeboard models.]]>
Austin Hair is a world class wakeboarder and a team rider for Supra Boats. When he isn't traveling the world for contests he spends his time riding with friends on Clear Lake, Florida.
(WM) Can you walk us through a typical day in the life of Austin Hair?
(AH) I wake up to a semi healthy breakfast of ezekial bread covered in bananas and almond butter. Then I go out for a set on the boat, afterwards I'll head to the cable, then I'll do some training at my kickboxing gym. It's a pretty active day.
(WM) You're one of the Pro Team riders for Supra. What Supra Boat do you currently have and what's the best part about riding for them?
(AH) I've got the SA550. The boat is awesome. It has the swell system so we love wakesurfing behind it. I also love the wake for wakeboarding. The best part about being on the team is that we're more than just associates, we're all one big family.
(WM) Why do you ride for Supra? What sets Supra apart from the other boat brands?
(AH) I ride for Supra because I absolutely love their product. When you're in the driver seat, you feel like a king, and when you're riding you can just launch.
(WM) What was the biggest improvement from your older Supra to the new SA?
(AH) Probably the Supra Swell System. Its awesome to be able to transfer from wake to wake and ride either side.
(WM) As a pro rider what aspects of the design made you move from the Supra 242 to the new Supra SA? Was it the hull change that made you switch from a 24' boat to a 22' boat?
(AH) Yeah the hull change was a huge part. This wake doesn't curl over very easily, so you can add a lot more weight while keeping the wake super clean.
(WM) What wake characteristic do you like about the Supra SA over the Mastercraft X-Star that you ride on tour?
(AH) I like how this boat doesn't lip over at all. It's awesome that you can get the wake this huge and keep it clean.
Shop for 2013-2014 Supra/Moomba BagBuster and Piggyback Ballast Upgrades>>
(WM) Can you describe the ballast setup on your boat. How do you weigh each section of the boat and with how much weight?
(AH) I actually was putting weight in the front when I had the 450 to make it a little steeper, but the 550 is actually pretty steep so I've been taking that extra weight from the front and moving it to the back. I have the upgraded ballast, then a couple hundred pounds in lead, then 3 additional fat sacks on the floor in the back and the walkway. The ballast does a pretty good job of covering most of the weight these days.
(WM) You've picked up some ballast upgrade products from us before. How did you hear about us?
(AH) I heard about you through a friend who did his own plug and play system on an older Malibu. He suggested I try the same thing.
(WM) Here's another tough boat question. What prop do you use? With all that additional weight in your boat you must be working with an upgraded prop.
(AH) I'm not sure off the top of my head, but I definitely asked for the "wakeboard" prop. The prop can make a huge difference in getting on plane.
*We think it's probably the ACME 2315
(WM) Does your new boat have the Supra Swell Surf System? We've had the chance to ride behind an SC with the Swell System and we were blown away by the wake.
(AH) Yes it does and its awesome. It takes a lot less ballast to get the wake amazing, and if you add ballast the wake gets even bigger. Its cool to just press a button and be able to shape the surf wake.
(WM) Can you tell us about your Pro Model Jobe Maddox Wakeboard & Bindings?
(AH) I wanted something that popped big and landed soft, and that's what we made. It's been great! I go huge now and have been learning some new tricks!
(WM) How's Clear Lake, FL? Who do you normally ride with when you're not traveling for contests?
(AH) I've been riding with Kirby Leisman, Stephen Pierce, and Julian Cohen. It's a rad lake. Even though there's a ton of pro's on the lake no one ever rides.
(WM) We saw on your instagram (@austinhair) that you were in Breckenridge, Colorado for a snowboarding trip. What else do you do to cross-train for the wakeboarding season?
(AH) I like to surf, flow ride, wake surf, and kickbox.
(WM) Any sponsor shoutouts?
(AH) Yep, I love rockin my nectar shades on any occasion, Elevated clothing makes the best wake apparel for hangin out by the beach or going out in general, living fuel is a super food sponsor that keeps me super healthy and energized, zinka keeps me from getting sunburned, and vita coco keeps me hydrated.
(WM) Where can people find you online?
(AH) Austinhair.net and my Facebook page is just Austin Hair.]]>
Our Buyer John Vincent has been in the watersports industry for over 15 years. He's seen wakesurfing pick up steam over the last decade to become the fastest growing aspect of our sport. Here's his review of the 2014 Slingshot Skim Bender Wakesurf Board.
"Recently we took some of the Slingshot Wakesurf Board's out at Prineville Reservoir in Central Oregon.
One of the boards I had been excited to try was the Slingshot Skim Bender. I really enjoy the skim style boards and I don't think they get enough credit in the industry. The board I used was the 56″ version. I am 5'10" and 155 lbs. and was riding behind a moderately weighted 2004 Malibu Wakesetter VLX. I could have easily ridden the 52″, but I wasn't sure what the wake would be like, so I opted for the bigger board.
The board was easy to keep under your feet for a deep water start and rose out of the water super easy. It was also easy to get up with your feet resting on the top of the board as well if you can't deep water start.
Now keep in mind that this was my first set of the year. What I noticed immediately was how fast this board is. I could get way back in the wake and instantly generate speed to the platform. I also noticed that if I was aggressive on my edging and carving the board wanted to stuff the nose in the water. i shifted my weight back and as I warmed up this went away. I did wipe out a few times if I didn't concentrate on keeping my weight back.
Because this board generated so much speed I could stall out on the top of the wake frontside and backside and easily get back in the wave. I could also carve out to the trough and back which you can't do on a lot of boards unless the wake is huge. I rode the board as a tri fin and would have liked the single fin set up, but I like a board that feels loose on the water, so I can rely on the edges. You can ride it as a tri, dual or single fin.
My overall opinion on the board was that it was fantastic. This board was confidence inspiring because of the speed it generated and definitely made me push my abilities. It put a smile on my face and everyone else that rode it. If I was Slingshot I would add some rocker in the nose for 2015, and some smaller fin options, but I will keep you posted as I will definitely ride this board again and behind a heavily weighted boat."

Wakeboard ballast is defined as the storage of mass within a boat to displace the hull deeper in the water which in turn changes both the wake size and shape. There are two common designs for a wakeboard boat ballast system depending on what type of pumps are used.
The aerator pump system is the first and still most common ballast system used. An aerator pump only pushes water in one direction. This system is configured so that one pump will fill the tank from the top port and another separate pump will be used to drain the tank from a bottom port. This design has the fastest fill and drain times, is the least expensive, but does require more space for the additional hose lengths needed to work correctly.
The second ballast system design relies on a flexible impeller driven pump. The flexible impeller pumps are reversible meaning one pump can both fill and drain through the same bottom port in the ballast tank. This system is usually more expensive but is easier to install and takes up less space. This system's on off switch can be controlled by a timer that will shut off the pump when the tank is both full or empty. The impeller pump ballast system is truly automatic in this respect.
The aerator ballast pump (Example: Attwood Tsunami, Shurflo Piranha, Rule Livewell) was initially developed to fill livewell tanks in fishing boats. When wakeboarding became popular and riders were looking to enhance their wake size, the livewell pumps were found to work really well to fill portable ballast bags. Boat manufacturers saw this and began integrating the pumps into their boats to fill strategically placed hard plastic tanks.
The aerator pump is flow-through and works by propelling or pushing the water at a faster velocity in one direction. This means when the pump is off it does not act as a check valve allowing water to travel either direction unrestricted. When the pump is turned on water in the inlet is accelerated through the pump to the outlet. Aerator pumps are not self priming and need to be mounted below the waterline in the hull to maintain a consistent supply of water. If the water supply is limited the pump can lose prime and will air lock. No damage will be caused by running the pump dry since an aerator pump uses a hard impeller and is not water lubricated.
Aerator Pump System Design: (Aerator Pump Ballast System Diagram)
Water Source
We DO NOT recommend using the engine's raw water intake as the source of water for the ballast system. The risk of damage to the engine is not worth the small amount of convenience during the installation.
The number of pumps that will be using a single water intake will determine the correct size of the bronze thru-hull fitting. When only suppling water to a single pump a 3/4" or 1" thru-hull intake will be sufficient. If the water needs to be distributed to more than one pump the intake should be at a minimum of 1" and should probably be 1-1/4" to 1-1/2". Once the intake comes through the hull into the boat a bronze ball valved must be placed on top as an emergency shut off. If the intake is suppling a single pump it can be connected directly to the ball valve. When using multiple pumps the intake will need to feed water into a manifold that can be shared by the fill pumps for a continuous water supply. (NOTE: All pumps must be below the water level.) The more pumps that are connected the larger the manifold will need to be but a good rule of thumb is to construct it with the same size fittings as the thru-hull intake. The fill lines should be run to the ballast bag in the least restrictive route possible to avoid tight radiuses that could crush or kink the hose. Before the fill hose is connected to the sac a Vented Loop Anti Syphon Valve must be added in line. This valve prevents passive filling and draining by eliminating the vacuum in the system. (NOTE: This fitting needs to be mounted higher than the intake of the ballast bag when the bag is completely full.) The fill line will then need to be connected to a top port on the ballast bag.
Vent / Overflow
The second fitting that will be used on top of the ballast bag is for the vent or overflow connection. This is a necessary part of the ballast system because without it the bag will either trap air and not fill to capacity or grow larger than the compartment and potentially cause damage. By adding a vent the soft structured bag will only grow as large as the confines that it is given. The bag will also discharge when full alerting the driver to turn the pump off. The vent hose needs to be routed above the sac and the thru-hull fitting needs to be at a level that is higher than the bag fitting when it is filled completely. (NOTE: Installing the thru-hull fitting as far forward toward the bow will ensure that the bag does not drain when wakesurfing since the boat is heavily weighted on one side.)
The drain port on any ballast bag is always at the end on the bottom. The drain pump must be at or below the bag's port to ensure that gravity will do the job of keeping the pump primed. The proximity of the pump is also a huge factor in how well the system will drain. If the pump is close to the water source and primed at all times the chances of an air lock are less likely. The hose connected to the outlet on the drain pump must run up beyond the height of the ballast bag just like the vent line. It is also advised to loop the hose before connecting it to the thru-hull fitting to ensure that the bag does not drain due to the force of water pressure from a full ballast bag.
The flexible impeller pump has been used for bilge pumping, livewell circulation, washdown systems and general fluid pumping. The first ballast application using the flexible impeller pump was by MasterCraft when they started using the Jabsco Water Puppy pump to fill and drain ballast bags in their wakeboard boats. Jabsco worked closely with MasterCraft to develop the Jabsco Ballast Puppy Pump and has since emerged has the leading supplier in the industry. The simplicity of the pump is what makes it so appealing. Being able to use the same port to both fill and drain is very convenient.
Unlike the aerator pump a flexible impeller pump is self priming meaning it does not need to be mounted below the water line as it will actually pull water into the system from the thru-hull inlet fitting. This also means the pump will act as a check valve and will not allow water to flow in or out. The impeller is water lubricated so running dry will damage the impeller if not the entire pump. The chance of "run dry" can be almost eliminated by installing an ballast pump timer. Another option is to design a system with a visual and audible indication of when the bag is draining. The best rule to keep in mind is that when the pump is not circulating water be sure to turn it off.
Flexible Impeller Pump System Design: (Reversible Ballast Pump System Diagram)
Water Source / Draining
We DO NOT recommend using the engine's raw water intake as the source of water for the ballast system. The risk of damage to the engine is not worth the small amount of convenience during the installation.
The suction that a flexible impeller pump has can create issues if the water intake is shared. By using a 1" bronze thru-hull fitting the pump will have a sufficient source of water. Immediately after the thru-hull intake fitting install a brass ball valve as an emergency shut-off point to allow you to immediately stop the flow of water into the boat if something goes wrong. On top of the ball valve add a 1" hose barb fitting. (NOTE: Using 1" ballast hose throughout the system is preferred and will make later steps easier.) The fill lines should be run toward the ballast bag in the least restrictive route possible to avoid tight radius's that could crush or kink the hose. To implement a system that drains above the water line install (Visual and audible indication of draining) a check valve or non return valve inline to prevent water from draining back through the intake and out the bottom of the boat. Next to this check valve a tee fitting is needed to redirect the flow of water out the thru-hull fitting when the bag is being drained. One of the two unused barbs on the tee will be need to be connected to the flexible impeller pump via a stretch of 1" oem ballast hose. The hose should slide over the inlet on the pump as most are 1" barbs. The other end of the pump will need to be connected to the port on bottom end of the ballast bag. The pump will fill and drain from the bottom part. Proximity between the pump and the bag is not crucial. The last remaining barb on the tee fitting will be for the drain. Run this hose to a thru-hull fitting above where the bag will be when at its capacity.
Vent / Overflow
The only port that will be used on top of the ballast bag is for the vent or overflow connection. This is a necessary part of the ballast system because without it the bag will either trap air and not fill to capacity or grow larger than the compartment and potentially cause damage. By adding a vent the soft structured bag will only grow as large as the confines that it is given. The bag will also discharge when full alerting the driver to turn the pump off. The vent hose needs to be routed above the sac and the thru-hull fitting needs to be at a level that is higher than the bag fitting when it is filled completely. (NOTE: Installing the thru-hull fitting as far forward toward the bow will ensure that the bag does not drain when wakesurfing since the boat is heavily weighted on one side.)
What type of ballast system do I want?
Most riders want to match what was available from the factory when the boat was new or when the manufacturer integrated a ballast system. That concept has always been the best option in our opinion. If there is already a ballast system in the boat it is best to match what the manufacturer had in mind to ensure the entire system functions and looks like it was installed by the factory. Having an entire system that functions the same will also make trouble shooting any issues that arise much easier. If the system that is already installed is not working properly let us help you find the best solution to resolve the issues.
The aerator pump ballast system is the best option for most riders because of its fast speed and low cost. If there is not enough room in the boat to add the vented hose loop fittings and vent lines above the bag this system is not a good choice.
We recommend the flexible impeller reversible pump ballast system for riders that need to fill and drain through the bottom of the boat because of regulations or if they don't have enough room to implement the aerator pump system. When adding an additional stand alone system on top of a existing factory ballast system the flexible impeller pump system will have the best results with the least amount of hassle.]]>

I would suggest being pre-emptive. From an employer-employee perspective, I would ask employers to go through their policies and manuals to make sure owners and managers are complying with state and federal labor laws and discrimination laws. Make sure files are filled up when incidents take place, no matter how minor, etc. Because if this is NOT done, companies open themselves up to liability down the road, which can be huge these days in the labor/employment area.
From a business perspective, I'd allow trusted lawyers to help negotiate contracts, rather than pulling one off the internet or using the same obsolete contract for years that's missing indemnifications, warranties, representations, etc. Many small to mid-size businesses want to save money … and they will up-front, but not if the relationship goes bad and the vendor agreement doesn't protect the business. Other reasons for not hiring an attorney to negotiate is because they assume that the contract is NOT negotiable … I find most things are if you say the right things to the right people.
My approach is really just pre-emptive. Sure, I could make double or more in litigation, but I don't think that's productive for the client.

Bought it as a replacement
Chuck Wysocki from Suwanee, GA– Verified Buyer
it wasn't exactly the same as the original (also a Grohe), but was similar enough that I could install without having to drill any new holes. Construction seems better than the original, but the shower handle holder is still made of plastic.
Looks good but...
Ruvim from ROCHESTER, NY– Verified Buyer
This shower bar looks good but is made of plastic,hence, probably not worth the price. Since I already have one set and it has worked well for me, I decided to stick with this line of Grohe shower accessories

Works well

No Time to Explain was initially a web based flash game, and then went to Kickstarter to become a commercial release on Steam. Long story short, the commercial game was also developed in Flash (ActionScript 2). Not the best decision as it turned out.
Here's a trailer of the commercial game:
|Wes Jurica
I had fun playing the web player demo. Great game!
Did you happen to try any tools from the Asset Store like UniSWF (https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#/content/3630) during your porting process? This tool looks like the perfect thing to use when porting a Flash game.
|Phil Maxey
Did you use Unity's editor to make the game? or just code it in Unity with scripts only?
|Bruno Xavier
Very nice game! Great gameplay.
Id suggest a streamed webplayer build for the demo though.
|Aladine Dhiabi
Anyone can Explain the content of the last image please :O ??
|Rey Samonte
I've also moved on from Flash to Unity. As much as I enjoyed working with Flash, I've enjoyed Unity even more. It's just a solid framework that allows me to get stuff done much faster. The performance and multi platform capabilities are just icing on the cake.
Although not the same workflow as Flash and it took some time to get used to the new way of doing things, in the end, you become much more productive and get things working that much faster.
|Chris Melby
When was the original game built that it was scripted in ActionScript 2? O.o
I've been going back and forth with Unity for a while, but I'm still on the fence. One of the biggest hold backs being cost.
With Flash development, InteliJ IDEA + AS3 + Starling + Monocle has been a wonderful experience and I can fully support Android, desktop, and iOS, and not have to pay a cent to Adobe. This has been great since my work still centers around boring corporate vomit.
When I look at Unity, they want either a subscription of $150( $75 x 2 ) a month, or an additional $3000 up front to support both popular mobile platforms. Is this right? And if I pay for the subscription for one month, does that mean that my Android project will not work if don't renew it?
Anyways, I just downloaded Unity for my PC -- moving away from my Mac -- and will grab Visual Studio Express also, and give it another go. I've beeb keen on the Modo( my favorite 3D program ) integration.

Windows 7 Home Premium x64
Network interruptions with both internal and usb wifi adapter.
My desktop computer loses connection regularly and I cannot locate as to why. I have many other devices throughout the house at various locations which maintain a connection fine.
When the connection drops it still displays I am connected, but there is clearly no connectivity.
I've tried toggling between two devices, one an eternal PCI adapter and the other a USB adapter. I get interruptions on both, so my conclusion is there must be a setting causing this.
The desktop has been moved to other locations just in case of interference, and I've tried channel swapping as well.

An FAO e-mail conference on approaches and methodologies in ex post impact assessment of agricultural research: The moderator's summary
Over 600 people subscribed to this 4-week long conference, which finished on 1 June 2014. They posted 109 messages which came from people living in 38 different countries - 58% were posted by people living in developing countries. Most discussions focused on issues related to micro-level impact assessment (typically looking at the impacts of a specific research project in one part of a country) rather than macro-level impact assessment (typically looking at the impacts of investments in agricultural research, or one of its sectors, at the national level).

Alerte aux messages frauduleux


text:
"And what is a gesture? Something on the order of the supplement to an act. An act is transitive; its sole purpose is to have an effect upon an object or to achieve a result. A gesture is the indetermined and inexhaustible sum of motives, pulsations, and lassitudes that surround the act with an atmosphere (in the astronomical sense of the term). We can distinguish between the message, which wants to produce information, the sign, which wants to produce intellection, and the gesture, which produces all the rest (the "supplement") without perhaps really wanting to produce anything at all. The artist (and let's keep this somewhat kitschy word a little while longer) is a performer of gestures by definition. He wants to produce an effect, but at the same time he couldn't care less. And the effects he produces are not necessarily effects that he wanted to produce; they are effects that have rebounded, spilled over, and escaped, effects that come back to him full circle and provoke modifications, deviations, and diminishments of their own traces. Gesture, in fact, abolishes the distinction between cause and effect, motivation and target, expression and persuasion."
"Starting out from writing (a field of causalities par excellence since one writes, one presumes, to communicate), a series of useless explosions that are not even the interpretations of letters manage to suspend the active nature of writing along with the tissue of its motivations, its aesthetic motivations as well: writing is nowhere and no longer to be found, it is absolutely de trop. And one wonders if it isn't at this extreme limit that one finds the true beginning of man's "art," "texts," and everything else that is "useless" - his perversions, his excesses."
-from Roland Barthes' essay in 'Cy Twombly: Fifty Years of Work on Paper'.

Beautiful World Lyrics - Rage Against The Machine
Review The Song (7)
It's a beautiful world we live in
A sweet romantic place
Beautiful people everywhere
The way they show they care makes me want to say
It's a beautiful world
Oh what a beautiful world
For you
It's a wonderful time to be here
It's nice to be alive
Wonderful people everywhere
The way they comb their hair makes me want to say
It's a wonderful place
Oh what a wonderful place
For you, for you, for you, for you, for you, for you, for you, not me

Depression | Reviewer: RM | 11/8/12
I understand where everyone is coming from with the poor/rich idea.
Might I suggest that this could also be a song that has to do with depression? For one with clinical depression, it might be easy to see how so many things can be beautiful and admire others' ability to feel that but not feel it yourself. I say this from experience.
That's how I related to this song.
Great song | Reviewer: James Dennis | 11/1/10
I'd have to 110% agree with Jay about the song being sarcastic saying how the Rich live their easy ignorant life when the poor and opressed go unnoticed.
I'd also have to say that ricky6 was right and the song is a Devo cover, but I do admire Rage's version more.
Sigh... | Reviewer: Solo | 11/26/07
Clearly, as 'lol' has noticed, he is saying how unfair the world is, and that only rich ass people have it good. He does not say "for you" out of the good of his health. Rage are a band who have always said how unfair shit is...they arent about to change it for one song..
isnt this a devo song?? | Reviewer: ricky6 | 6/11/07
I do believe this is a devo cover. Pardon my ignorance if perhaps its a cover of a cover of a cover.
lol | Reviewer: Jay | 5/13/07
You guys obviously missed the point of this song. The song is sarcastic, he's singing about how the world is beautiful for people in better positions in life, the corrupt people in the world are living in a wonderful world but all the people who have to live on the streets and have no money are living in hell.. That's why the final line of the song is "It's a beautiful world for you, for you, not me."
wow. | Reviewer: Eli Cooke | 3/18/07
This song is amazing, the same lyrical message that RATM gives, in a different style. This song just further proves this bands skill in music.
R.I.P RageAgainstTheMachine.
a beautiful song.. | Reviewer: tasha russell | 10/2/04
this song is truly amazing. the lyrics are so wonderful that when i put it on, i just close my eyes and try to imagine what the lyrics are describing. but sometimes its hard because then the images of war and injustice fill my mind. Then i think of how Mumia Abu-Jamal is sitting in his death row jail cell and wondering when it will end. but the song in question is so wonderful that i cant even find the perfect word to describe it. just beautiful, like the world he sings of.
