FSLD Video Submission Contest: Win an iPod Shuffle!

ForgiveStudentLoanDebt.com is holding a Video Submission Contest and you could win an IPOD SHUFFLE.
 
We want your videos - serious videos. The videos should be from 30-90 seconds long via web cam, personal camera, or professional camera (if you have one). To qualify for the IPOD SHUFFLE there needs to be an absolute minimum of 50 (THAT’S RIGHT! 50) video submissions, 10 coming from each category that you can pick from (see below).

We will keep track of the submissions and when all the requirements have been met, we will make the announcement that all qualifications have been met and we will then have a drawing from those who have made a legitimate (meaning serious) submission and one lucky winner will get an IPOD SHUFFLE! (You should like the CAPS, I mean an IPOD SHUFFLE for a video?? Easy stuff!!)

On Egypt's revolution: courtesy of Dr. Dahab

The following is courtesy of Comparative World Literature faculty member Dr. F. Elizabeth Dahab:

Luckily, there are moments of infinite beauty in a Revolution stemming from the People. Here is one (video) of those moments, led by a five-year old!



This young boy is chanting at least 15 slogans. At one point he stumbles and looks at the sign in his hand. Someone besides him humors him: "Are you cheating or what"?

Here are some of the slogans he chants (I [Dr. Dahab] translated them into English below):

-Hosni Mobarak, Suzanne Mobarak, Ahmed Shafik, Omar Soleiman : Null and Void
-Where are the journalists. Here are the Thousands
-Resistance until the regime steps down
-Take heart our country; freedom is being born
-The People demand the fall of the regime
-Step down step down Hosni Mobarak
-Revolution till victory
-We are all one hand; we are all together
-Egypt, here are your children; for you we have worried so
-Revolution on all the streets of Egypt
-Neither Shafik nor Soleiman [newly appointed prime Minister and vice-president];they are American collaborators
-Wake up, Mobarak. Today is your last day
-The people want to condemn the president
-The people demand the fall of the regime
-Until the regime falls down
-Mother Egypt, we are not tired: Liberty takes time
