Recalling moments from that fiery crash, he first remembers swerving to avoid the car and at the last second laying the bike down as a last ditch effort to take up as much speed as he could, knowing that he was going to hit the car.

Teasing Seagulls
Apparently they Haven't figured out the science of transparent glass.
From the author: "The birds at McAuleys headland in Coffs Harbour are ravenous. Chips courtesy of Popeyes Fish and Chips! This is the original video, any other video is a copy.
The person feeding the chips isn't me, it's my friend Joe. We gave them heaps of chips at the end. Yes we got grease all over our windshield. No we weren't stoned. It was late afternoon. The laughing was a passenger in the back named Robyn who requested that she be mentioned. Yes that was a Sony CD player, good catch. We DID turn the windshield wipers on at one stage before we filmed it and didn't want to honk the horn because there were people in the car next to us."

The King in the Field Music Video
After having their flight delayed, following the shooting of another major project, this video was spontaneously filmed in Eastern Europe by music producer Danny Finkelman and directed by Tzirel Raskin.
Produced and Directed by: Tzirel Raskin
Edited by: Valerie Hayward
Filmed by: Mauricio Arenas
The "King in the Field" is a song by Isaac Bitton which depicts the well-known parable of a King who is closely guarded by his soldiers, hidden away in his chambers. Only those who are invited are able to greet the King and converse with him. However, on rare occasions, there are times when the King leaves his castle and wanders the streets and fields meeting ordinary folks and hearing the plight of his townspeople. During this time, the King is gracious to his subjects, he shows each one of them personal interest, and even accepts their petitions and requests.
This is what the Jewish month of Elul is all about. G-d is closer now than any other time, closely listening to our requests and prayers and allowing us to connect with him on a deeper level.

Fusion Jazz Version Of "Anovim" Played In A 5 Beat
As some people are "Sick of Rachem", many are Sick of Anovim. Eran Asias and Rambam came up with a solution. They changed the time signature in the song from a standard ballad which is in a 4 beat, to 5. A very unusual time signature. Accompanied by John Tendy. The pristine sound you hear is credited to Yitzchak Shem Tov on the board. Take a listen to the creation of music in its purest form.
