The place for everything that doesn't have a home elsewhere on RogerEbert.com, this is a collection of thoughts, ideas, snippets, and other fun things that Roger and others posted over the years.
With "Man of Steel" opening this weekend we come back to the same debate I've gotten awfully tired of having for years. Superman, I am constantly told, is not a "relatable" character. After all, he's faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, and all that jazz.
How is a disgruntled, debt-ridden, under-employed 21st century audience supposed to identify with a character who's basically a God?
Well, for starters I reject the parameters of the argument. Nothing rankles me more than folks who insist on movie characters being "relatable." There's a blowhard local critic I've been bickering with on and off for over a decade, a middle-aged college professor, and this gentleman's entire criteria as to what constitutes a good film is whether or not he can "identify" with the characters. "Who are these people?" this fellow will ask following a screening of "Beasts of the Southern Wild," "Ginger and Rosa" or even "Frances Ha." "What a bunch of self-involved, self-destructive twits!"
I don't go to the movies to see my life reflected back upon myself. I always thought the most wonderful thing about movies is that they allow us to get outside of ourselves for just a little while, to experience different worlds and circumstances that we'd otherwise never know. Superman is indeed a God, and Zack Snyder's "Man of Steel," like so many interpretations of this story before it, does not shy away from the Christ imagery. Maybe you can't "relate" to him because he's decent and forthright, blessed with more powers than you can possibly imagine and yet chooses to use them for the betterment of his adopted citizenry instead of his own rewards. He's an aspirational figure, not a mirror.
I think the real problem that's constantly dogged this character and may be the source of these complaints is his invulnerability complex. It's the same corner those "Matrix" sequels painted themselves into after the rousing end of the first picture — a dramatic writer's variation on "what do you get for the man who has everything?"
That's why the film franchise brought back General Zod and his gang of Kryptonian baddies: there's nobody else that can fight Superman and generate a fair amount of suspense. The 1950s TV series would pit Supes against safecrackers and pistol-weilding hooligans, basically swatting a fly with a bazooka. Lex Luthor is a gimcrack rogue real estate planner, and while 1978's "Superman" is considered canon amongst the fans, the ending always drove me nuts. Once Kal-El demonstrates that he can fly fast enough to spin the Earth backwards and travel back in time, what's to keep him from doing that every time Clark Kent is late for work and can't find his car keys? Leaving aside a few radioactive green space rocks, there's nothing that can get to Superman and therein lies our real dilemma. Bryan Singer's elegantly composed "Superman Returns" was one of the most searingly personal, deeply moving superhero movies we've yet seen, but it couldn't find a way around this particular conundrum, and thus climaxed with a kinda-deadly half hour of Supes lifiting a lot of heavy stuff.
The idea of a Superman that I can personally "relate to" is frankly horrifying. His near-indescrutibility is what allows him to demonstrate a bravery and forthrightness most of us can only fantasize about. Let's say Earth was indeed attacked by a gang of renegade, terra-forming Kryptonians who just escaped from the Phantom Zone and intend to wipe out the planet. You wouldn't want to call me. I'm a thirty-something layabout who ducks calls from angry exes and sleeps past noon. My only superpowers are avoiding bill collectors, telling you which local sports bars give out free chicken wings during happy hour, and recommending a mechanic who will fudge the paperwork so your junk car will get an inspection sticker.
Come Armageddon, you're better off with Superman, and that's why I love him. Reading Boston writer Larry Tye's excellent recent book Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero, I realized the character came to life as a reverie that a bullied Jewish kid named Jerry Siegel had while growing up in a Cleveland housing project during the Great Depression. Superman is more than a character, he's a dream. Superman is our better self; a projection of absolute power that does not corrupt absolutely. He's kind.
Every petty quarrel you get into, like a stupid fight over a parking space, ask yourself, 'Would Superman do this?' He's busy saving the world, but never loses his bearings as a gee-whiz kid from Kansas. Superman doesn't have to be nice: he's invulnerable. He could take over the country with a shrug. Yet he works for a living, treats people with respect, and never gets the girl. Superman doesn't even wait to be thanked, he just flies away.
Yes, Superman is better than us. Maybe you think he's not "relatable" but maybe that's because a lot of us are kind of sorry losers. As Russell Crowe's Jor-El says in the new picture: "You will give the people of Earth something to strive for. They will race behind you. They will stumble, they will fall. But in time they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders."
Clark Kent is so amazing, he can actually find a full-time job at a daily newspaper. That may be a fantasy, but I'd rather watch a guy like that onscreen than somebody like myself.

Did Pathoma for Neuro this morning, working my way through FA of Neuro and Psych and will do a question set for neuro tonight. Here are the short-term goals I've come up with today… hopefully I'll be able to keep to it, and I'll be able to just barely make it in time. T__T Wish me luck!
Goal tomorrow: Finish Pathoma (4.03 hrs worth of material x 1.5 (the extra time I'll need to write down notes/repeat parts of it, if I'm lucky) = 6.05 hrs. Ugh!) That includes both Repro and Endo, with most of that being female repro/breast pathology phew. Then if I still have strength after that, will try to finish all of repro and endo in BRS phys and FA, and if time permits, do 1 question block tomorrow.
Goal Saturday: will go over answers for all the test blocks that I haven't finished going through answers for yet, try to finish any remaining stuff in FA, and start random question blocks. Hopefully get 2 in, but we'll see.
Goal Sunday: Practice Test starting at 7:30am (my actual test time). And going through answers.
Calculating including today and minus 2 days for practice tests, I have to do an average of 115 questions a day to finish the Qbank before test day. T___T That's almost 3 question blocks per day (which my friend had said was probably the max I'd be able to do)! And of course I won't be starting randoms until Saturday, so I'll be needing to make up even more. Oh I am so screwed… prayers for focus and getting through this over the next 19 days would be extremely appreciated! Heh. T__T
By the way, if anyone has any questions about the resources I've used so far and things like how well the info correlates to what I'm seeing on Q-banks, or the usefulness of each resource, feel free to ask!
[edit: hah! I learned a new word today: blepharospasm (sustained eyelid twitch). I'd love to be able to say that in context someday.]

ShortCom: An Edinburgh Fringe Show With a Conscience?
The 2013 Fringe sees the first appearance of Chris Aitkens' Short Com at the festival. Woopy Doo you may say, but this is a show with a difference. Not only will they be showcasing some of the UK's best comedy film making talent, they are also aiming to raise £1000 for mental health charity CALM in the process. So how did it all begin? Chris explains:
"Initially, Short Com was nothing more than a brain fart. I had a short comedy film that wasn't really festivally but would just get lost on the Internet amongst cats river-dancing and Kanye West preaching from the book of fairness. Thus I thought wouldn't it be great if there was a purpose built 'festival screening programme' for short comedy films."
So is this just another Fringe idea we will never see or hear of once September comes round? In my opinion definitely not. Chris painstakingly reviews all submissions deciding which ones to showcase at different events:
"I won't pretend for a second that running Short Com isn't hard. The organising, constant emails, dealing with some people who believe I owe them something or can't accept I don't find their film suitable. But there are rewards, especially when I get to screen the selected films and people laugh, then I know I've made a good call. That and I get to see a lot of underexposed talent from both the film and comedy worlds."
In fact it is the opportunity to build a legacy which really brings out the passion Chris has for this project:
"I've long felt that there's a lot of comedy on TV that's just not funny anymore, either bad scripts are getting picked or as I've so often heard that autonomy and creative freedom is a bit of a faux pas in the industry. So when I see that these people are making films for nothing, a lot of them consistently contributing to Short Com, I know there are plenty of geniuses out there who can make great content outside the realm of broadcasters commissioning them. Nevertheless, I think the path for most of these people is to get a series commission or film option in the future. And I hope Short Com can be a bit of a launch platform for some of these people by proving they can consistently make people laugh and deserve to climb that ladder."
In these times where The Fringe is being accused of becoming just another corporate behemoth Short Com might just be the breath of fresh air we all need. Raising money and awareness for a good cause at the same time as showcasing the best in comedy and film making talent. I am also unaware of any other show this year with such a focus on nurturing talent and creating an existing legacy as this.
Catch Short Com at this years Edinburgh Fringe – 1pm at Sportsters (part of City nightclub) August 4th-9th, 11th-16th and 19th-23rd with top guests from the worlds of comedy and film presenting the show daily.

" Do you want to be one with God?"
"You are. What could be easier
than the will of God?"
" Do you want to be one with God?"
"You are. What could be easier
than the will of God?"
"I tell you for certain anyone who sins is a slave to sin." (v.34)
Jesus' mission was to preach the Good News which is: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
In this passage from Luke 4.18-19 Jesus is letting us know that we are slaves, poor, captives, blind and oppressed. The remedy is the "acceptable year of the Lord" which can be understood as the Kingdom of God. Can you imagine there being bondage of any kind in the Kingdom of God? He says: "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand (right here right now); repent (change your mind), and believe in the gospel (good news)." Mark 1:15
We find Jesus talking here to believers (v.31) who do not understand what he is saying. Sound familiar? (v.43), "why can't you understand what I'm talking about?" I'm reminded of Jesus' statement on the cross "Father forgive them for they know not what they do." Luke 23.34
What is the sin we are slaves to? Sin from the Greek; hamartia means to miss the mark. The commentator from the online Blue Letter Bible says of this word; "It is the most comprehensive term for moral obliquity." Maybe what this commentator is pointing out here is that the word hamartia itself is a morally oblique term. It is very possible this word is used on purpose to describe an amoral condition of blindness or ignorance. That we have not offended God for the simple reason we are unable to reason. We cannot see the target (God) and we have no clue as to how get there. Is this a moral failing or just the condition we find ourselves in?
Some of the synonyms for obliquity are: ambiguous, darkness, inscrutability, murkiness, mysteriousness, and opaqueness. Of course we keep missing the mark because we cannot see the mark. Is it not inscrutable that theologians would take such a morally ambiguous word and create an entire moral system based on the idea that God hates what spiritually blind people do? Of course God does not hate anyone and he is no more offended by our actions then we are of mentally compromised people. We just don't know what we are doing. And this ignorance has us imprisoned, slaves to our insanity. There are no Venal sins, no mortal sins, no sins of omission and no sins of commission. These theological terms describe only one condition our inability to see.
There really is only one sin from which all our mistakes have their root. We mistakenly believe we are separate from ALL there is. God. We believe in the impossible. We believe in something that can never be. There are not thousands of choices for our happiness there is only one; choose God or we are stuck in our blindness.
Here is what Jesus' contemporary theologians had to say:
39 Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind."
40 Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, "What? Are we blind too?"
41 Jesus said, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains. (John 9 NIV)
This was said after healing the man born blind.
What we have done is cloak our ignorance in the fig leaves of theological thinking and convinced ourselves we can see. "Abraham is our father." "We have just one father, and he is God." said the people. Because of what they were taught they believed they could see.
For many of us our minds are full of theological theories and because we accept them and have called them MINE we are very attached to them. Did you know that your most important possessions are your beliefs? Aren't we willing to kill for them even die for them? Unfortunately history proves this all to true. With this insight we see that the people in Jesus' day were just like us. I find it interesting that at the end of Luke 4 and the end of John 8 the people are trying to kill Jesus. Isn't this something we need to watch for in our lives? How do we react when someone threatens our theology? Do we demonize them? Once we do it is a very short path to the killing fields.
For the past 20 years I ave been a professional caregiver mostly working with people with Alzheimers and dementia. During this time I have been hit, accused of stealing, thrown up on, yelled at, told to leave etc. I would have not lasted very long in this work if I had taken any of this personally. These people no longer know what they are doing. In comparing our intelligence and spiritual insight to the creator of the known universe does it not seem that the human race has a case of Alzheimers? Now into this scenario comes a caregiver, a comforter who tells us we aren't in our right minds. And why? because we have made a mistake, we believe that we are separate from God. This belief has given us dementia and we now think we are OK. However deep down inside there is a small bit of remembrance of how things used to be. It is this memory that Jesus is speaking to. It is like during those times of clarity when the one with Alzheimers remembers the name of her husband and begins to talk of all the wonderful things they used to do together.
What keeps us a prisoner? My mistaken belief that I can get back to God without help—"I can see." This is where all of our insane actions (sins/mistakes) come from. I will have more than I need if I steal it. And we have forgotten we are sons of the King. I will have more love in my life with just one more lover. And we have forgotten that God is Love.
This way of interpreting hamartia in the light that God is not offended in any way brings us to a place where we must take another look at the death of Jesus and its purpose. But that is for future posts. Why if God is not offended did all those animals have to be sacrificed and why did Jesus have to be "sacrificed"? Just something to think about. And what of guilt?
I've decide to change the title of this series into a more positive approach, from obstacles into how to grow spiritually.
The last post on this topic pointed out that spiritual pride can get in the way of growing spiritually. So a good place to start our journey toward Oneness with God is in the Spirit of humility. That no matter what I have been told or how much I have read how many retreats or seminars I have attended I really don't know anything.
The toughest pill to swallow is, Truth cannot be found in books or sermons. Truth can only be found in the doing. Then we will know for ourselves what the Truth is for me. Jesus points out that if you "obey what he has said" then we will know.
Enter Pontious Pilate: "What is the Truth"
Jesus' answer: "Silence" So much can be said when we keep our mouths shut. It has always been a wonder to me that so much can be said about what we can't explain. But we/I keep trying. Jesus tells us the Truth is discovered in the doing. Here is my verbal stab into the dark.
The end of attack. The actions are the flowering of the seeds of thought, the effects of a mental desire and the clouds which hide the Light of the Son of Heaven. Only Love is real. We may have gained some truth but truth without Goodness (action) is cold and dead. Truth without Goodness is attack. Truth and Goodness equal Love in action.
Yes there is only One Truth. It is Solid, the Cornerstone of Heaven, the Rock that people stumble over, unchangeable, unassailable and without compromise. However as the cornerstone or foundation is not the entire building Love and Goodness must be the building, the Fathers House. Love and Goodness can only stand on the Foundation of Truth. This is the Reality of Heaven.
Jesus could say he is the Way, the Truth and the Life because he was the full realization of God incarnate which is Love and Goodness. Love is the Way, the Truth and the Life and no one can enter a heavenly life without Love. We leave all attack behind and enter the Gates of Heaven, here and now.
God is Love, God is Goodness, God is Truth and if we do theses things we will never die. We have moved from death into life.
We can only know the Truth when we do everything in Goodness and Love.
In these verses he says several times "I am doing only what my Father has shown me"(Love and Goodness). He points out the people have another father, not Abraham as they were told, in the physical, but in the spiritual realm they are offsprings of another thought system. The system of the world that believes in separation from God. Jesus came to teach them how to be one with God again but they have to leave their old thought system behind—their entire worldview actually—and do what Jesus says.
Is Jesus the Way, the Truth and the Life. He categorically denies his own Goodness/God. He never said he was Love. He did say he was the Light of the World and to follow him (do what he does) and we too will have the light that gives life. (Jn. 8.12) The Light of The World also tells us "we are the light of the world" (Matt 5.14) He is the way-shower illuminating our hearts and minds so we can be like him, One with God. (see John 17)
Now to leave you with the immortal words of poet and philosopher Leonard Cohen: When his audience answered in the affirmative that they wanted to know the secret, the truth of everything, he said: "de dom dom, de do dom dom"
Jesus and the People, some insights from John 8.31-59
These next few posts are going to be a bit different than the devotional posts I have written lately. It will be expositional in nature dealing with the very important topic of spiritual growth and the obstacles we face on the road to Oneness with God.
The first obstacle: spiritual pride.
There are several ways to interpret what is going on here and each has its value in helping us to understand what John is relaying to us in the confrontation between Jesus and "the people".
Verse 31 tells us these were "people who had faith in him."
Taken literally we are confronted with an historical incident in the life of Jesus between a group of people who didn't understand (v.43) what Jesus was saying (v.31 he wants to help his new believers get free.) or doing. There are accusations thrown back and forth; "the people" are demonizing someone who is threatening them and Jesus is returning their accusations. It is the typical argument of I'm right and you're wrong with a loaded charge thrown in, of demon possession, from both sides. And quite frankly if I came upon a group of people arguing in this way I would just turn around and leave. Honestly these types of exchanges are nothing but the mudslinging of children throwing tantrums. But that is on the surface, the literal historical event which has been played out for centuries between any warring factions, with the inevitable result that one group will want to kill the other: v.59 "The people picked up stones to kill Jesus."
In other words: "I'm right and you're wrong and I'm gonna kill you for being 'wrong'–i.e. not agreeing with me. If there is any lesson to be learned form this literal story it is things have not changed much over the eons that man has been on the planet. This is especially noticeable in the religious and political arenas. And much of the time there has not been the luxury of a separation between church and state as we have in the western influenced world.
"The people" here are the fruit of the religious leaders; the Sadducees and the Pharisees, Jesus' usual antagonists. I have read that the literacy of the common people in Jesus' day was maybe 10% and most of those were the religious leaders. What the people were defending were the things taught to them by their religious culture (at that time all the Hebrew culture was religious/political), they did not have the luxury of looking into the scriptures themselves. They were defending their entire world view taught to them, the Hebrew paradigm of the day.
I think it is important to point out that the Hebrew people and their leaders were not the enemy as some have tried to enlist Jesus in their hatred of another race—they just did not understand, this makes them a symbol for the entire human race, they didn't know what they are doing. Jesus used many metaphors for their spiritual condition: blind, sick, ignorant, crippled, deaf. Jesus never tried to kill anyone and killing another in his name is my definition of taking the Lords name in vain.
Swedenborg pointed out that when we try to kill someones belief we are actually trying to kill that person because a persons faith is actually what keeps them alive. If you have ever seen anyone who has lost their faith you know what he means.
This is the first obstacle we face on the road to Oneness with God, found in those new to their beliefs (no matter how long one has been a believer). "My way is the right way and yours is not." Our pride quickly gets in the way as the result of our insecurity, not being quite sure of this new way of thinking. Spiritual pride and self-righteousness will be the fruit of this insecurity if not quickly dealt with. And if it is fostered by those in leadership ones spiritual growth will be limited and after a while non-existent. Hatred will be the result and it will be easy to find targets for those wanting an outlet for their anger. See verse 44.
Well there is so much more in these verses beyond the literal and I will get to them in the following posts. For now it will be good to remember My way is the right way for me at this time in my life and your way is the right way for you at this point in your life and respect and tolerance for all our brothers and sisters as they progress toward the Truth that sets us free.
"I am a unique, special individualization of God, and my whole purpose for being is to be a vehicle, a channel, for the expression of my inner self….Remember I am here for one purpose only, and that is to find my way back to the Father's house—to be the True Self-expression of the infinite." The Superbeings
Yes back to the basics, the foundation of my life and Spiritual practice—"to seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added to me." Jesus
There is no reason to be concerned about anything or how things will turn out. Even though I have ideas of how my life will unfold I must surrender ALL of them. That is what Jesus meant when he says; "all these things will be given to me." Maybe they will come to me just as I planed and maybe not, who knows? "This or something better," as the saying goes.
What I hear in this saying of Jesus is to picture how I want my life to go, how I want things to be, write it out in as much detail as I can imagine, desire it and own it in my mind's eye—then Surrender the whole basket of good I can see, to God—give it up, let it go, and flow with life without a care in the world. Trust God completely in all things and for all things. I do those things put in front of me each day and be open to new inspiration and new direction with a surrendered heart and a clear mind trusting completely in God. No worries, no fears, not trying to force anything and in Peace and Joy look forward to "all these things being added to me."
I walk thru life confidently and at Peace in the knowledge of the complete provision from God in every area of my life.
The source of my very life is God. There is no Life in my body, it is only a container energized by the Holy Spirit. This inner life is Perfect, Whole and Complete lacking in nothing.
To borrow from the Eagles:
I get a peaceful easy feeling whenever you are around because I know I'm already standing on Holy Ground.
I get this feeling that I know you as a lover and a friend, I hear this voice whisper in my other ear, I'm standing on Holy Ground.
Day 40 of the 40-Day Prosperity Plan
Well I made it. At the beginning I had my doubts about committing publicly to doing this 40 day prosperity plan however as it turns out it was my thoughts of you, my readers, that has kept me going until the end. So thank you for participating with me and joining my journey in exploring new thoughts of creativity and prosperity. Your likes and followings have kept me encouraged along the way. This is not the end of course but a beginning in the continued application of what I have learned until I have reached full mastery of the topics covered in theses past forty days. As one follower reminded me in her blog we are on the path from "Glory to Glory."
" I keep my mind and thoughts off "this world" and I place my entire focus on God within as the only cause of my prosperity. I acknowledge the Inner Presence as the only activity in my financial affairs, as the substance of all things visible. I place my faith in the Principle of Abundance in action within me."
"…my entire focus on God within…" The Spiritual path requires nothing short of complete capitulation to God. Every religious tradition I've read agrees on this point. Total, unequivocal, surrender.
On this last formal day of working the Plan each morning, it is right to know, this past 40 days is just the beginning. What I have learned is, this is a continual process of dedication to God alone and constant observation of ALL that is right in my world now.
How I see my world and how I see God are the same. The God I surrender to is the one of Love and only Love. The God who "requires mercy and not sacrifice." The God who says "cast your cares on me because I care for you." She is the constant provider of ALL Grace, Truth, Joy, Peace, Comfort, Guidance, Abundance, All under the heading of Love.
"…the stern, condemning, dictator-God fell from the sky along with his big black book listing our sins and shortcomings. The man-made god was dead, and in its place was the Universal Reality of love that had been present with us, in us, and as us from the beginning." from, The Superbeings.
Choose this day whom you will serve, the worlds god of poverty, condemnation, sin and death or the God of Abundance, Forgiveness and Life.
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. John 10.10
The God I see wants to show me everything that is right with me, every good thing in me and my world. All of the things that are lovely, beautiful, good and true. The constant splendor of overflowing abundance right here in front of my face. This God wants to open my eyes to see the Kingdom of God paved with streets of gold and verdant pastures and the tree of Life. This and an infinite variety of Good is All that is Real and is in me and through me, surrounds me and is me. I am a Son of God, God expressing herself here and now.
Again thanks and blessings to all of you. I shall be gone for a couple of days to Mexico for a photo shoot. I'll post again when I get back.
Day 39 of the 40-Day Prosperity Plan
"When I am aware of the God-Self within me as my total fulfillment, I am totally fulfilled. I am now aware of this Truth. I have found the secret of life, and I relax in the knowledge that the activity of Divine Abundance is eternally operating in my life. I simply have to be aware of the flow, the radiation, of that Creative Energy, which is continuously, easily, and effortlessly pouring forth from my Divine Consciousness. I am now aware. I am now in the flow."
"What is right with you?"
"You should acknowledge what is right with you everyday and the good will grow." both quotes from; Superbeings by John Randolph Price.
What is right with me is everything right here and right now. There is nothing wrong with me.
" I am aware of the God-Self within me as my total fulfillment." YES.
So much of these past 38 days—I'm counting yesterday because yesterday was the breakthrough—were spent in focusing on what I thought was wrong in my life and that those things outside needed to be changed. But no. Nothing outside of me needs to be changed—my total fulfillment has always been and is always with me. I am right now standing in the presence of ALL Mighty greatness. I am innundated by the tsunami of Love. There is nothing else I need.
"What is right with me?" Absolutely everything. Even the things I think are "wrong" with me are right with me. I can completely relax in this ocean of Abundance. Everything that I need and want are here now.
Thank you God—no worries, no fears, no tension, no stress. Do I want it? Well go get it.
Yes it is Gratefulness that has opened my eyes to see the Abundance of riches available in the Kingdom of God. God's timing is always perfect. Being in the flow is knowing that when something is needed it will be there at the right time and place in the perfection that is God.
The Abundance of everything.
Thank you God.

Eurasia Diary -Jeremy Havardi's Exclusive Interview
Today, most antisemitism comes from the left and from Islamist groups
Interview by Seymur Mammadov
Exclusive interview with the director of the B'nai B'rith UK's Bureau of International Affairs, Jeremy Havardi
Mr. Havardi, how do you assess the level of anti-Semitism in the UK?
– I believe that most people in Britain are not particularly antisemitic, judging by recent opinion polls, though a significant number of people share at least one or two negative opinions about Jews. Today, most antisemitism comes from the left and from Islamist groups who both peddle conspiracy theories about alleged Jewish power and use traditional antisemitic tropes to attack Israel and Zionism. There is an unhealthy obsession about Jews that animates their discussions and feeds their addictive worldviews. One is seeing evidence of this at the moment within the Labour movement which has taken a decisive lurch to the left. They associate Jews with 'excessive' political and economic power and perceive Israel as a bastion of colonialism and First World power. I think that within these groups, antisemitism is definitely on the rise. There are also some far right and extreme nationalistic groups in the UK whose members hold unpleasant views about Jews and other minorities. Their influence is much smaller than their left wing counterparts, however.
What steps are being taken by Jewish communities and European organizations to combat anti-Semitism?
– Jewish communities are trying to highlight the abuse that ordinary Jews are experiencing, both at universities, in academic circles, within political organisations and elsewhere. Groups such as the Campaign against antisemitism and the Community Security Trust actively monitor antisemitism and ensure that the issue remains in the public spotlight. The result is that that those with racist views are being publicly exposed and held to account for their bigotry. Other groups meet with the government to ensure that vulnerable Jewish communities are fully protected. As the Director of the B'nai B'rith UK's Bureau of International Affairs, I meet with Ambassadors every week, pointing out how hatred and prejudice is on the rise in foreign countries and asking what measures are taken to protect Jews from attack. We face an uphill struggle but it is vital that the work continues. We are also concerned by intolerance shown towards other minorities and recognise that while hatred may start with Jews, it does not end there.
How are the Jews integrated into the social and political life of Great Britain?
– Jews have always been integrated into the political, economic and social life of Great Britain. Despite being a small minority of less than 0.5% of the population, Jews make a remarkable contribution to so many areas of communal life, including politics and academia, science and medicine, the media and the world of arts and culture. This is equally true of Jews in European countries.
The European Parliament (EP) approved by a majority of votes the working definition of anti-Semitism, developed by the International Alliance in memory of the Holocaust. According to the adopted working definition, anti-Semitism is "a special kind of attitude towards Jews, which can be expressed in hatred towards them." What new opportunities will this decision of the European Parliament open for European Jews?
– I think that the new definition makes it easier to understand today's antisemitism. This hatred is not just about attacking or hating Jews because of who they are. It is about holding Jews to a double standard, of demonising the Jewish state and invoking conspiracy theories about allegedly malevolent Jewish power. Hopefully, if the definition can be adopted across the western world, it will help to differentiate reasonable discussion and debate from prejudicial and baseless rhetoric.
Let me ask you about the Jews in Azerbaijan. What do you know about the life of Jews in our country?
– Jews have played an important role in Azerbaijan's history and culture though most have left the country in recent decades. The Jewish community enjoys warm relations with the government and it is encouraging to see close bilateral ties between Azerbaijan and Israel in recent decades. I have not been to Azerbaijan but would very much love to visit.

I was at this little art bazaar/market thing earlier today. It was all about independent art and young artists and designers expressing their raw talents to the masses. It was held at Annexe Gallery, Central Market which I think has done a lot for these blossoming young talents.
The event was organized by Pipit. Pipit is actually a worldwide art portal and community for independent artists and designer internationally. They are currently celebrating their 4th anniversary. I have never really heard of them until my friend sent me a link to their Facebook page and asked me to come with her to the bazaar.
Bags that could be disembbled and rolled for storage
It's kinda gross but this piece is actually hair sewn on canvas
It was a colorful event with vendors selling items from one of a kind bags and t-shirts to sculptures and limited edition art pieces. There was also an exhibition room, where arts from these budding young artists were being displayed. Edwin Sumun was there too to show his support. I said hi and congratulated him on hosting the MiFA last week.
Although I never claimed to be an art lover, I do appreciate all forms of art. The world knows I'm all about fashion. But hey, fashion is an art expression too! Some people might see it as fake and superficial, but they have no idea what it takes to design a dress or even a handbag.
Oh! By the way I learn this new word to describe art lover today . It's "aesthetes".
Song playing inside my head: Massive Attack's Teardrop

Each of these entries draws from a place of struggle as well as from attitudes of defiance and hopefulness and optimism, a strong rebel strain. Eileen calls me the "Bad Boy." I smile at that.
I awake early usually, this morning at 2:30 a.m., concerned about the pending winter storm, worried about a potential power failure in subfreezing temperatures, now at 15 degrees Fahrenheit. I felt a hives attack coming on, too, so took an antihistamine.
The hives attacks have been radically frequent since this round of Lupron injections, and I noted this to my urologist during the testy exchange we had when I questioned the need to continue these since my latest PSA reading showed the decrease mentioned earlier, from a rising 2.3 to a low 0.17, considered a level that indicates remission from prostate cancer.
Other things on my mind include at the moment the intermittent flow of well water that comes through our new plumbing to the sink and toilet I just installed and the previously installed shower and hot water heater in our rustic rural cabin. I understand the possible causes from this erratic flow but fixing them involves help from the contractor who installed the plumbing itself as well as the hot water heater.
We get by with this problem, though. It's a matter of patience, of waiting for the flow to fill what needs to be filled. Our first shower here with the new plumbing came in spurts of fortunately hot water. We understand the luxury, too, both from our own lives and our human-rights humanitarian travels. The same is true with the pending storm. The cabin is protection from the storm, whatever the plumbing problem.
What lacks though in this industrialized and technologically astute culture is adequate protection from the toxins and contaminants in our environment and food supply, some that have a causal or an associated relationship with cancer. And speaking of water and plumbing, the natural gas pipelines that run through this region transmit shale gas, the subterranean supply broken loose by horizontal hydraulic fracturing whose drills need a high-volume supply of toxins and truck-transported water that are later left in supposedly safely lined ponds. Yet this "fracking" blasts through water tables too.
There's no question the contaminants filter into these supplies. Where's the protection?
The points for me are these: What is the relationship between the contaminants injected and spewed into our habitats and prostate cancer?
Are we who have been afflicted by this cancer and others the canaries in the mine?

What comes to mind when you think of a 'flashback'?
A war vet? A person (usually female) pushing the other away during sex? Someone diving for cover at a loud noise?
Yes, these are possible portrayals of flashbacks, but they are certainly not the only ones.
Most flashbacks are not the dramatic occurrences on which Hollywood thrives. Flashbacks and the preceding triggers occur in the small moments and the simple interactions of daily life. They are subtle, sneaky and surprising. They are often difficult to detect for the survivor and for the supporter.
[epq-quote align="align-center"]Flashbacks are subtle, sneaky and surprising. [/epq-quote]
If you are in a relationship with a childhood trauma survivor, whether you are aware of it, you have probably witnessed a flashback.
A trigger is an unconscious reminder of past trauma. A trigger could be a sound, scent, look, word, feeling, thought, or sensation.
A flashback is an emotionally-driven, intrusive, sensory memory from the past that feels like it's occurring in the present. It is an overwhelming experience, which causes the brain to go on high-alert.
(Fortunately, survivors can learn to identify and manage triggers so that they don't go into a full-blown flashback. See this article by RAINN.)
A Flashback Story
Last spring, my husband, Derek (the survivor), and I went for a walk down our country road. Spring had finally arrived and we were enjoying the warm air and the budding nature around us. As we walked, I excitedly shared some ideas about a new writing project.
The sound of crunching gravel on the road indicated a moving vehicle behind us. We moved to the side and a pickup truck passed. I kept talking.
Halfway through one of my sentences, Derek interrupted. (It wasn't a polite interruption. It was abrupt.)
"Look at that truck."
Yeah, okay. I squinted in the direction of the truck which was now turning into our neighbor's driveway. What about it? And what did that have to do with our conversation?
But Derek was already headed down the road towards the truck. His pace matched that of an Olympic speed walker.
I, on the other hand, stopped. Stunned, I couldn't move.
Over his shoulder, Derek shouted, "That quad has a pesticide tank attached. He's going to spray the neighbor's weeds."
Weeds? What weeds?
Now, I had noticed the dandelions popping up everywhere. It happens every spring. But as far as I knew, weeds did not indicate an emergency.
Or did they?
For Derek, they did.
The presence of dandelions sprouting everywhere triggered an out-of-control feeling. Weeds meant extra work. Weeds meant spending money to get them sprayed. Weeds meant so much more than just weeds.
I began to walk. I passed by Derek who was in engrossed in a conversation with the weed truck driver. I feebly shouted that I was going home. I don't think he heard me.
That is a flashback.
Today, Derek and I are both much better at recognizing flashbacks when they occur. We have figured out how to communicate with each other about them. Derek is working on understanding and managing his triggers. I am learning how to remain calm!
For supporters, an understanding of flashbacks will help lower stress and frustration with these unbidden trauma responses. It will not only improve your relationship with a survivor but will help to establish a safe relational environment–all of which contribute to a faster and smoother recovery. Everyone wins.
To help supporters and survivors, I've created a short list of flashback basics. Here they are.
Flashback Basics
1. It's about the brain.
- The brains of trauma survivors are wired for emergency.
- Flashbacks are an unconscious brain-driven trauma response.
- The survivor is not being manipulative or difficult. Sadly, people think and say these things.
2. Education and understanding regarding the impact of childhood trauma are essential for both survivors and supporters.
3. Help the survivor access trauma-informed and trauma-specific resources.
- Offer to go with him or her to appointments.
- Offer to pay if they can't afford treatment.
4. Learn how to communicate with the survivor in a caring and compassionate way.
- Ask: I'm curious about your response.
- Don't point fingers: Did you know you just had a flashback? (said with anger)
5. Supporters, learn to manage your frustration with flashbacks.
- It's incredibly stressful when someone is highly triggered and seems to easily go into a flashback.
- Take breaks, practice self-care and have your own support system.
- Contact me for coaching support if you are struggling.
6. Survivors and supporters must learn to calm their own nervous systems. This is called self-regulation.
- Regulation involves healthy self-soothing, self-nurturing, and calming activities.
- Learning to regulate is important for supporters because the nervous system of the survivor will impact yours.
- Breathing, essential oils, exercise, warm baths, and more settle the body and mind.
Flashbacks are difficult but they do not need to derail you. With understanding, self-care, and skills, supporters and survivors can work to overcome them.

Vancouver, British Columbia, June 19th, 2017 – Advantage Lithium Corp. (the "Company" or "Advantage Lithium") (TSX Venture: AAL) (OTCQX: AVLIF) is pleased to report the staking of a new property in Catamarca province, Argentina to add to our existing prospective land holdings in the Antofalla Salar located in the provinces of Catamarca and Salta, Argentina.
Covering approximately 3,000 hectares (ha), this new property, known as Antofallita XX, is strategically located adjacent to properties held by global lithium major Albemarle. In September 2016 Albemarle announced an agreement with Bolland Minera SA ("Boland") for an exclusive exploration and acquisition agreement to acquire their holdings in the Antofalla Salar. Bolland had drilled over 56 boreholes and had substantially advanced the property to the resource definition stage. The Company's total land holdings in the Antofalla Salar are now at 13,000 hectares with 10,000 hectares located in Salta Province and 3,000 hectares in Catamarca Province, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 .
The Company considers Antofallita XX of interest for its geological setting beside a prominent, deep-seated "suture" zone of regional fracturing along which numerous hot springs are developed, that could have deposited lithium in the property. Environmental permitting procedures have been initiated with the objective of obtaining approval for a proposed drill program.
Said CEO David Sidoo "Miguel Peral, our VP of Exploration, identified this property as prospective for lithium and given Miguel's track record of discovery as part of the discovery team for Salar Olaroz, Salar Salinas Grandes, Salar Incahuasi and Salar del Rincon, we are very pleased to have added this property to our portfolio. Miguel has been credited with several significant discoveries of lithium in Argentina and he continues to seek out other opportunities for the Company. Currently lithium properties in Argentina are being transacted for over a thousand dollars per hectare and our entry price by staking was very little. Mr. Sidoo CEO further said "We consider Antofallita XX a strategic property, being adjacent to Albemarle's ground and also considering Albemarle's view, as announced in their news release of September 2016, that they believe their property could contain the largest lithium resource in Argentina".
The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved on behalf of the Company by Murray Brooker, MAIG, RPGEO, a "Qualified Person" as defined in NI 43-101.
About Advantage Lithium Corp.
Advantage Lithium Corp. is a resource company specializing in the strategic acquisition, exploration and development of lithium properties and is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia. The common shares of the Company are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V: AAL), and the Company is also traded on the OTCQX Best Market in the U.S. (OTCQX: AVLIF). The Company has acquired a 100% interest in five projects in Argentina and up to a 75% interest in a sixth, called Cauchari. Cauchari is located just 20 km south of Orocobre's flagship Olaroz Lithium Facility. The Company is also earning an interest from Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp., in a portfolio of five lithium brine projects in the Clayton and Lida Valley regions of Nevada, USA, including 70% in Clayton NE.

Marathon training and a few points to consider
- The more miles you run the greater the risk of short term and long term injury!
- Is the type of training you are doing really helping you get stronger and prepared?
- Are you getting good nutrition to fuel your training and recovery?
- Have you a good stretching program in place?
- Are you ignoring those niggles, aches and pains?
- Feet ok? Black nails, blisters foot and heal pain?
If 'no' to any of these then you could be missing a big part of the jigsaw
- The right training is the key to running a marathon, just banging out the miles won't do it and you risk overuse injuries which can set you back weeks in recovery. Interval and core training will unlock the door to endurance sports.
- A good diet, rich nutrients is the best fuel to maintain a training program.
- Stretch those tight muscles or they will learn to stay tight, a tight muscle will create a tight joint and stiffness.
- Get professional help for those niggles early with a sports massage, it could be more costly to fix if you leave it hoping the aches will just go away
- Look after your feet or they will let you down, get good running shoes and have gait analysis to assess your foot health, a foot out of neutral requires more muscle strength to restrain it an so will lead to early muscle fatigue, stress fractures etc

Model of 911 Mobile Response
Not every transportation model is about highway redesigns. This is the Thor truck, an emergency 911 vehicle model.
The problem with natural disasters is that they tend to take down the very services that were put in place to protect us. This mobile emergency services truck can be deployed to a disaster site to keep the 911 emergency response functioning and at the ready. This concept is new and we were asked to build this model of the truck to use in a sales meeting to demonstrate it's abilities. Using high-intensity LED's to mimic the halogen lamps on the truck, we lit this model creating an intriguing effect.

An old woman whose life had been spent making a huge change in the life of the poor once said:
We cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.
Mother Theresa was right. Although in her case she fulfilled both parts of the statement.
And in a fame driven culture, where kids want to be famous for being famous rather than for doing something worthwhile, it is easy to disregard the small things that we do which have great impact.
A smile
A "thank you"
A compassionate or caring act
These and so many other things, can make a huge difference.
OK, so you won't get into the papers, but you will create ripples which spread out from you to others.
And your good news can make a difference.
Already staff have said that they are encouraged.
Patients have a voice which is not skewed by the negative.
And the community have a chance to be informed and heartened.
I'm not niaive enough to think that writing a blog can change the world. But in another quote Mother Theresa says:
"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples."
There's a challenge for us all. Maybe this week we should see what stone we can cast and watch the ripples.

It's been a while since I write a post, simply because I did not know what to write and for a while I also didn't know how to make my dream happen. I hit a ceiling and did not know where to go from there. I hit a milestone of getting 1oo likes on Facebook and over a hundred views on YouTube, but I got stuck there.
I got tired of not having any music recordings that I could offer to my fans and followers.
I was lost and frustrated and did not see the light at the end of the tunnel. I felt like I had this dream and no way of manifesting it! Until.. one day I was on Facebook and I came across an ad from another independent symphonic metal artist, in her celtic symphonic metal. So I clicked on the ad and joined her mailing list mostly because I wanted to learn from someone who was already doing this.
Long story short her name is Leah Mchenry and she goes by LEAH for her music, she makes $1800 a week of her music and without touring!
It turns out that she teaches a course called The Online Musician, and this course teaches you how to make an income from your music solely online! Now this was perfect! I dived in and chewed up the course in only a week! Then February rolled around and who knew but February is Album Writing Month! I found out because Graham English (the best-selling author of Logic Pro X for Dummies) was selling this course called the FAWM mastermind and along with this course also came The Music Producer Bootcamp. FAWM is short for February Album Writing Month. Now I have never written an album before, so I doubt that I will be done with an album in a month or two, but still this is a great launch pad for me.
If you want to download my song for free click here!
So finding these two courses helped me out a lot and thanks to Leah Mchenry and Graham English I now have a single out in all the digital stores Itunes, Amazon, Google Play, etc! If you want to download my song for free click here! Before I knew what I needed to do when it came to marketing and social media, but now I am also learning what I need to do to create the one thing my fans and followers need and want from me more than anything; music. This is a new year with a new beginning! This year I'll be releasing music! Come hell or high water, one way or another. I hope you'll come with me on this journey and listen to the music.

but i know she's still up there
shining down upon me.
so if you see someone
in the midst of a storm
shine a little light their way.
*p.s. it's not too late to join in on our random act of kindness, forget.me.not
Even if not visible the sun is still here deep inside our hearts ;-)
The storm was majestic - a white and blue crystal array of light against a darkened sky - the promise ever told in each soft snow flake.
Love to you
peace and light
This is what you do, oh shiner of light. And it makes us all want to do the same.
And so you did with this lovely poem. And so I will.
There's such soft beauty in the photo partnered with generosity and hope in your words.
Stay cozy warm, Se'lah!
you have the greatest attitude .. the photo talks of softness amid a storm
Such a lovely photo, Se'Lah... it has the "hush" of winter, if it could speak. :o) Haiti was on my mind yesterday extra much...*prayers*... LOVE YOU ((BIG HUGS))
On a recent PBS NewsHour a segment was shown on Haiti and where they are a year later. It is a sin, a heinous sin, as to what is NOT happening there a year later. I feel for those people and they are in my thoughts and prayers.
Oh!, the snow scene is magical. Even I can say that w/all my 'snow issues." :-) Prayers for Haiti. My heart still weeps.
This photo is so, so, um, antiqueish..(if that's a word). I just want to stare at it...I can almost feel the wind, the cold and the snow on my eyelashes! Absolutely beautiful!!
Haiti, we see you and we continue to support you and hold you in our hearts and in our consciousness!
The photo and the poem! Too beautiful for words. Haiti is in my thoughts and prayers.

Summer Scarf with Hand Crocheted Border | Handmade Crochet Gift Ideas10
June 22, 2017 by Robin @ Imperial Crochet
This gorgeous scarf isn't something she'd necessarily buy for herself but if she owned it, she'd wear it all the time!
Because I can't possibly crochet fast enough to fill this blog with wonderful handmade crochet gift items that I've made myself, from time to time, I'll be showing off some of the beautiful crocheted pieces that I find in the Handmade section at Amazon.
This is the small print you always hear about. This post contains affiliate links which means if you click on a link to an item on this page, and then purchase it at Amazon, I'll get a small royalty. This does not effect your cost at all but it does help me to keep the lights on at Imperial Crochet. Thank you for shopping through us! All opinions are my own and I won't promote what I don't love.
I love browsing at crocheted items and I'm always on the lookout for the next thing I want to make. Today, while window shopping at Amazon, I came across this gorgeous summer scarf and fell in love. It's made of white fabric with a white cotton hand crocheted border and has colorful attachments to brighten it up. The length is 59 inches long.
It's design is so simple and yet I think it looks super chic on the model.
Click to learn more or purchase this pretty scarf at Amazon.com
I think this would make an excellent summer gift for a woman of any age who appreciates handmade items and who likes to create her own style because this isn't something that you'll see on everyone every where.
Younger women can wear it as shown, and older women can use it to comfortably and beautifully camouflage the dreaded droopy neck area the plagues many of us.
It's a fun accessory for warm weather wear but can certainly be used at any time of the year.
If white isn't her color, the designer also makes this pretty scarf in other colors including gray, blue and red.
Visit the Jasmine.Creations Storefront at Amazon to see all of the colors and everything else this designer crochets.
From a crocheter's point of view, I've never tried crocheting on fabric before but after seeing how pretty this is, I might want to learn it sometime in the future. For now, I'll just enjoy the work of others.
What do you think? If someone gifted this scarf, or one similar, to you, would you wear it? Share your thoughts in the comments. I love hearing from my readers.

Amazing value for those who want to travel mid-week. Ski up to 3 and a half days Monday to Thursday with our ready-made inclusive packages.
Ski up to 7 days, avoid the rush of weekend flights and ski the empty slopes instead. Our inclusive packages depart Monday or Thursday.
Follow us:
The ski area of Saas-Fee although not as extensive as nearby Zermatt is ample for a weekend skiing. Most of the skiing is on high, north-facing glaciers and as a result the snow record is excellent. Gradients range from gentle blues, to slightly steeper reds but blacks are in short supply so the mileage hungry may struggle here. That said, the impressive 1800m vertical descent from the tops to the village offer an impressive test of stamina. For the more experienced skier there are three unpisted runs as well as seven black runs but overall the advanced skiing is a little limited. It's for intermediates where Saas-Fee really excels with lots of long cruisey-runs and gentle reds. There is an excellent snow park (Morenia) for freestylers and boarders and overall this is a good resort for snowboarders. For beginners there is a very large nursery slope at the end of the village and good slopes to progress to. There is also a cheaper beginner pass that does not cover the whole of the mountain but is perfect for first-timers. The resort is generally uncrowded and it is unusual to experience long queues at any time of year.
Saas-Fee offers a spectacular setting amid high peaks and glaciers. The resort has similar characteristics to Zermatt; Swiss charm, traffic free and dramatic setting yet without the bling of its neighbour. From the south end of the village the restaurant terraces offer stunning views up to the ring of 4000m high peaks. It's narrow car-free streets and old chalet buildings means it retains the feel of a traditional mountain village rather than that of a conspicuous ski resort. In essence it is a beautiful and charming with plenty going on in the village with good facilities, shops and bars. The village itself is at a height of 1,800m and the skiing is some of the highest in Europe between 2,500m - 3,500m. The high altitude ensures good snow conditions, perfect for a weekend ski break. Transfers may be by train, bus or private/shared bus/minibus.
* If you have lunch in the Mittelallalin, you will be eating in the world's highest revolving restaurant! At 3,456m the restaurant gives you spectacular 360° views and often has live music on the terrace.
* The local ski school "Eskimos" is one of the best in the Alps and has a large number of English-speaking instructors. If you need help with lessons we can help arrange them for you.
* For such a small village there are a lot of activities available in the evenings. There is a boulder centre for climbers, a leisure centre with 25m indoor swimming pool, indoor tennis and ice rink and bowling.
* Saas-Fee has the world's largest Ice Grotto at the top of the Allalin lift and guided tours are available.
* The Dom Bar in the main town has live music every night. For après-ski try the SnowPoint bar, Zur Mühle and the Black Bull.
Top elevation: 3500m
Resort: 1800m
Lifts in area: 22
Pistes: 100kms
Transfer Time: From Geneva is approximately 2 hours 40 minutes
Transfer Type: Train
Transfer Notes: Take the train to Visp then from there it's a 40 minute train to resort. Once you get to resort it's a short walk to the hotel or you can call the hotel to come collect you if they offer a shuttle service.

New Delhi. Following allegations against lawyers Shanti Bhushan and his son Prashant Bhushan, a search has been launched to find "truly honest" individuals for the Lokpal Committee. In order to avoid any future controversies, the hunt for potential committee members quickly turned to individuals with "impartial incorruptible high level international crime fighting experience", Faking News can reveal.
"Unusual CVs" would also be considered and "death defying acts" taken into account, said a spokesman.
The Bill team contacted Batman yesterday, but the caped crusader declined. "This is an Indian job for Indian super heroes," said the caped crusader, speaking from the top of a tall building against a moody sky, "I will train local talent, but won't take on a formal role myself. It's all about local capacity building."
A spokesman for Batman pointed out that his boss had some "serious CD/DVD issues" himself. "No one liked the Joel Schumacher film," he added. However, Government staff confirmed that, as a non-wage earning voluntary worker and not being attached to an NGO or charity, Batman would probably not be granted a visa.
The lack of tall buildings was cited by Spiderman in his refusal letter, and whilst military staff were reportedly keen on The Incredible Hulk, the MCD vetoed the idea as a "threat to vital infrastructure".
However, there is a local alternative. "Harishchandra Man", otherwise known as Varun, 34, from Rohtak, stands just 5'4" in his yellow knee high boots. His yellow cape drags in the dust and his face is covered in cuts and bruises.
"I'm the man for the job," he told Faking News, "because I never ever lie. I always tell people the truth. That's my special power – I think you'll find I'm one in 1.1 billion." As if to prove his point he crossed the road to tell a passing lady that she "looked fat", returning with black eye. "It's the price I pay," he explained, "and I think Faking News is rubbish too."
After adding to his collection of facial wounds, our correspondent asked why he wanted to be on the Committee. "The Committee would benefit from having one honest person on it," he said, "And in return I would get a custom car, a gadget belt and maybe a secret hide out… ummm… although keeping it a secret might be difficult for me as I would tell the truth when somebody asks about it."
He is currently looking for someone to play his side-kick, Frank-Frank. Faking News called the Bill team on behalf of "Harishchandra Man" but "corrupting forces" had disconnected the MTNL phone.
