"I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will." – Antonio Gramsci: Letter from Prison (December 19th, 1929)
Prior to the epiphany that launched me on my journey down the road of ethnic consciousness, I, like so many others, had been inculcated by the American public and private school systems (as well as the mass media) into believing that almost everything great that had ever been done under the sun was done by people with light hair, eyes and skin. Beginning in kindergarten, a long procession of these people from Christopher Columbus to Neil Armstrong and from George Washington to George S. Patton, Jr, was paraded before me. Great minds from the likes of Isaac Newton to Carl Friedrich Gauss and from Thomas Jefferson to Woodrow Wilson were, as well.
Even back then I wondered what, if anything, people from my area of the world, the Mediterranean, had done to compare with the accomplishments of these people. Though Columbus was originally from Genoa my educators were quick to point out his ancestors had come from farther north in Europe. In fact, the people who wrote my textbooks in school (and directed the movies I watched) would have had me believing all the greats of the ancient Mediterranean world bore a striking resemblance to Northern Europeans. Who reading this, for example, hasn't seen a Hollywood epic showing ancient Greeks and Romans with British looks and accents (at least among the upper classes, anyway)?
To this day the mighty Alexander the Great of Macedon is portrayed with blond hair and blue eyes, in spite of the fact the earliest painting of him still extant shows a man with decidedly different features. For centuries painters have portrayed the great Jesus Christ as a man with unmistakably Nordic features, though most modern historical scholars would have a serious problem with that one.
Perhaps the height of ludicrousness occurs in the realm of physical anthropology. Throughout the 20th century physical anthropologists like Giuseppe Sergi and Carleton S. Coon taxonomically categorized most of those who lived around the shores of the Mediterranean Sea as members of the Mediterranean race (or sub-race, in the case of Coon). Beginning in the later part of the 20th century, however, a movement began ("Race is a social construct!") to do away with such typologies, in spite of the growing genetic evidence to the contrary.
Thus, while in the minds of many if not most we are not "White", we also do not merit a classification of our own, even though critics of the concept of a Mediterranean sub-race continue to admit to the existence of distinctive features of Mediterranean populations. In a sick sort of way, we do not exist!
Armed with the knowledge I have accrued in my lifetime, it has become apparent to me why this is so. Once I began my saunter down the long road which led to the awakening of ethnic awareness within me, I soon began to realize just how worthless those textbooks and movies really were in terms of their historical value.
A good part of that journey was in discovering and documenting the existence of members of our ethnos who could rightfully be considered great. One question, though, I must answer before I continue: how do you define "great" or "greatness"? This is important because these words can mean many things to many people.
Before I offer my opinion (and it will be only that, my opinion) it must be noted you will probably never find a person universally regarded as great. One man's saint is another man's demon. One man's intellectual giant will be another man's talented provincial, or worse. The best, therefore, one can hope for is a consensus of opinion.
For purposes of this discussion, a good definition I have found comes from the American Heritage Dictionary. It goes as follows:
"important; highly significant or consequential."
When reading this article it behooves me to urge you, dear reader, to keep this definition fresh in your mind. This is because the subject matter is a man who in life was a highly controversial individual, and who remains so to this day. When I was first asked to write about him I must confess I had misgivings due to my own antipathy towards Marxism and its adherents. With apologies to no one, I make no secret of my disdain towards totalitarian philosophies, of either the Left or Right, as nowhere are the pages of history so soaked in blood than in those written by the followers of these movements.
|Giovanni Gentile
In Gramsci's case there is a double controversy due to his Sardinian/Albanian background. Many if not most in the Nuova Patria Meridionale movement do not regard Sardinians as true Southerners. Many Sardinians, I'm sure, share this feeling. I do not share it. If we ever manage to reclaim our independence from the pseudo-state monstrosity known as Italy and the Sardinians wish to join us, as far as I'm concerned they should be more than welcomed to do so. Again, though, that is only my opinion.
As for his Albanian background? Anyone who has done a study of the history of Southern Italy already knows that communities of ethnic Albanians (dubbed Arbëreshë) have dotted the landscape for centuries, especially in places like Calabria. Though these people have maintained a distinct ethnic identity down to modern times, no doubt many of them assimilated into the general population.
Antonio Gramsci was born January 22nd, 1891 in the small town of Ales on the island of Sardinia. He was the fourth of seven children born to Francesco and Giuseppina (née Marcias) Gramsci. His father, born in Gaeta in 1860, was the son of a colonel in the Bourbon gendarmerie of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Some of his paternal ancestors had emigrated there from Albania in 1821. Giuseppina Marcias, a native Sardinian, was born in the town of Ghilarza in 1861.
From birth some of the many health problems that would plague Antonio his entire life were already evident. A frail child, at the age of four a servant dropped him. His family would later claim his physical deformities (among other things, a hunchback) resulted from this. His childhood was marred by poverty and hardship. Upon reaching adulthood he stood less than 5' tall.
In 1898 Francesco Gramsci was arrested and convicted of embezzlement, then shipped off to prison. This reduced the already impoverished family to destitution. Giuseppina was forced to move the family back to Ghilarza and Antonio (affectionately called "Nino" by his mother) had to abandon his schooling to help out the family until his father was released from prison in 1904. This fact in no small measure affected his attitude towards his parents. People who knew him well commented on how he never felt particularly close to his father. He regarded his mother, however, with a deep affection and credited her humor and wisdom with getting him through the rougher parts of his childhood.
Antonio's first exposure to Socialism was through his older brother Gennaro, with whom he lodged while completing his studies at secondary school in Cagliari, a city in Sardinia. Gennaro had previously served in the Italian military and his time on the mainland transformed him into a militant socialist. At this time, though, Antonio was less interested in Socialism than in trying to improve the lot of impoverished Sardinian miners and peasants.
In 1911, Gramsci won a scholarship to study at the University of Turin. It was here he would meet his future friend and Marxist cohort Palmiro Togliatti. While at Turin he developed an interest in linguistics. At this time the city of Turin was undergoing rapid industrialization, with many workers pouring into the factories from poorer regions of Italy, including Gramsci's native Sardinia. With the establishment of trade unions, Turin became a hotbed of radicalism. In 1913 Antonio Gramsci joined the Italian Socialist Party (PSI).
Financial constraints coupled with poor health and an increasing commitment to politics caused Gramsci to abandon his studies in early 1915. By this time, though, he had amassed an impressive knowledge of history and philosophy. His talents and keen intellect did not go unnoticed. In 1916 he became co-editor of the Piedmont edition of Avanti!, the official organ of the PSI. Ironically, previously the editor of the paper's main edition in Milan was the man who would later become Antonio Gramsci's political archenemy - Benito Mussolini. By late 1917, Gramsci was a member of the party's Provisional Committee and the editor of Il Grido del Popolo (It: "The Outcry of the People"), a socialist newspaper.
In April, 1919, Gramsci, together with his friend Palmiro Togliatti, Angelo Tasca and Umberto Terracini set up a weekly newspaper called L'Ordine Nuovo (It: "New World Order"). Later that same year the PSI voted by a large majority to join the Third International, a global association of Communist groups. It was around this time that Gramsci and his cohorts came to the attention of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, Communist usurper of Russia, who viewed their faction as being closest to the Bolshevik spirit. By giving them his approval, the status of Gramsci and his circle greatly increased in the eyes of Italian radicals.
Gramsci's main rival at this time in the PSI was a man named Amadeo Bordiga. Bordiga, unlike Gramsci, was a strict anti-parliamentarian who favored overthrowing the Italian government by force and using force to establish "a dictatorship of the proletariat". Though the two men were often at odds, Gramsci joined Bordiga in establishing the Communist Party of Italy (PCI) on January 21st, 1921. This was done mainly because the two felt the PSI was becoming too centrist in its outlook.
Though subordinate to Bordiga in the PCI, Gramsci almost immediately began locking horns with him. In spite of being an anti-parliamentarian, interestingly, Bordiga opposed the militant anti-fascist Arditi del Popolo (It: "People's Squads") while Gramsci and Lenin favored them. Gramsci felt the groups were needed to protect socialists from the terroristic depredations of Mussolini's Blackshirts, as well as to oppose the rise of Fascism in general in Italy. Bordiga, on the other hand, opposed the Arditi due to the presence of non-communists in its ranks. In the end, Gramsci and his comrades in the L'Ordine Nuovo group would follow the non-violent, legalist strategy of the PCI.
In 1922 Antonio Gramsci ventured to Moscow as a representative of the PCI. While there he met Julia Schucht, a young violinist. They would later marry and have two sons: Delio and Giuliano.
While Gramsci was in the Soviet Union, dark clouds quickly gathered over Italy. Powerful industrial interests in Northern Italy, fearful of growing Marxist influence in the country, threw their weight behind the National Fascist Party of Benito Mussolini, which caused a surge in its ranks. From October 22-29, 1922, Mussolini staged his "March on Rome", at the invitation of King Victor Emmanuel III, who appointed him Prime Minister.
Now de facto ruler of Italy, "Il Duce" moved quickly to consolidate his power. Throughout 1923 he passed repressive measures against opposition political parties, throwing many of their members in jail, including Amadeo Bordiga. By 1924 Bordiga was expelled from the PCI and Antonio Gramsci was recognized as its head. Forces beyond his control, however, worked to make his command a short-lived one.
In that same year he was elected to the Chamber of Deputies for the Veneto region. In his one and only speech to the Chamber, Gramsci delivered a memorable oratory condemning Fascism. His fate was sealed.
I've always believed the truest measure of the worth of a man can be found, not in the opinions of his friends, but of his enemies. In November, 1929 Mussolini and the Fascists completed their eradication of Italian democracy and then paid Antonio Gramsci a supreme compliment – they openly violated his parliamentary immunity by having him arrested! At his 'trial' the prosecutor (a Fascist official) told the court, "For 20 years we must stop this brain from functioning." He was immediately given a sentence of five years which the following year was increased to the 20 promised. He was thereafter dropped off in a dungeon in the town of Turi, near Bari.
Apologists for the Fascists will point out (correctly) that Mussolini merely had Gramsci imprisoned, whereas someone like Hitler or Stalin would most likely have had him executed. My retort is that caging someone in a rat hole like an animal for the 'crime' of espousing unpopular political opinions is a slim improvement over having them shot!
In 1932 an attempt by the Fascist government of Italy to swap political prisoners (Gramsci included) with the Soviet Union went nowhere. His health, which was never good in the first place, declined rapidly in prison. In 1934 he was granted a conditional freedom. On April 27th, 1937 he passed away at the age of 46 at the "Quisisana" Hospital in Rome. He was buried in the Protestant Cemetery.
Throughout his adult life Antonio Gramsci was an avowed atheist. Yet some years after his death, Archbishop Luigi de Magistris, the former head of the Apostolic Penitentiary of the Holy See, which deals with confessions, indulgences and the forgiveness of sins, claims that on his deathbed Gramsci "returned to the faith of his infancy." He further alleged Gramsci took the Sacraments of the Roman Catholic Church and even kissed an icon of Jesus Christ. Others, however, point out Italian state documents show no religious official was sent for or received by Gramsci while he was in the hospital. The reader is left to wonder what is the truth.
|Benedetto Croce
Of the three, Croce was the only one who would die in his bed of a ripe old age. Though lionized after the war for his resistance to Mussolini and Fascism, he would live long enough to see both himself and his brand of liberalism become increasingly irrelevant. In a free society the unfettered flow of ideas constantly challenges pre-existing ones, and the post-war era saw Croce's theories attacked by a new generation of philosophers led by men such as Umberto Eco.
Giovanni Gentile lived long enough to see his philosophy of Actual Idealism go down in flames with the Fascist Italy he had helped to create. His own life ended with an assassin's bullet. Benito Mussolini, Gentile's disciple (and lord and master) met a similar, ignoble end. Though Gentile and his philosophy have been largely forgotten, despotism appears to be a natural part of the human condition. It is not difficult to imagine that at some future date, another would-be autocrat will dust off Gentile's writings to use as a blueprint and justification for his own tyrannical regime. Stranger things have happened.
In spite of the circumstances surrounding Gramsci's end, his legacy clearly outshines that of Croce's and Gentile's. Of the three, his name is best known outside of Italy. He is chiefly remembered as being one of the most original thinkers in the Marxist tradition since Marx himself, and his central influence in shaping Western Marxism is undeniable. I have read a number of his works, and though I admit an antipathy towards Marxist thought in general, I cannot help but perceive the keen intellect of the author in the pages of his works.
One of my favorite works by him is his essay The Southern Question, an analysis and critique of the deplorable conditions of Southern Italy from the founding of the Kingdom of Italy up until his time. His assessment of the problems facing Southern Italy and their causes were spot on! Where I disagree with him was in his proposed solution, for he believed (perhaps naively) that only an alliance of Northern Italian workers with Southern Italian peasants had any hope of uplifting the deplorable conditions our people faced (and still face).
In this he shared the pan-Italian illusion of Benedetto Croce and Giovanni Gentile. The grim but undeniable reality is that Northerners (bourgeoisie and workers) are the source of many if not most of our problems in the first place! The pseudo-state of Italy was created for their benefit at our expense, and it is administered towards that end to this day! In spite of their outward call for 'secession', in actuality the anti-southern prattling of Umberto Bossi and the Lega Nord serves as the propaganda machine for this parasitic monstrosity.* Only a free and independent Repubblica delle Due Sicilie, ruled by us and for us, has any hope of alleviating the poverty and corruption afflicting our people.
Still, Gramsci's essay The Southern Question should be read by every Southern Italian nationalist, and if you haven't done so already, I strongly recommend that you do.
If he had only chosen a different path, what a wonderful Southern Italian nationalist Antonio Gramsci would have made!
Gramsci's legacy remains controversial even in Marxist circles. Palmiro Togliatti, Gramsci's friend and comrade in the PCI who ran the party after WW2, claimed the gradualist approach of the party was in line with Gramscian thought. Others, though, claim Gramsci was a Left Communist who would have been expelled from the ranks of the PCI if he had not been arrested and imprisoned.
His greatest contribution to Western thought, unquestionably, was in formulating his theory of cultural hegemony. In it, Gramsci proposed that a culturally diverse society (such as Italy) can be ruled or dominated by one of its social classes. As time goes by, the ideas of the ruling social class come to be perceived as the norm by society at large. They are believed to be universal and to benefit everyone, whereas in fact they only benefit the ruling social class.
Ironically, whether Gramsci ever truly realized it, the Risorgimento (which he believed in) was one of those ideas.
Marx believed the recessions and economic contractions inherent in Capitalist societies would ultimately provoke the workers to overthrow the rulers of such societies and restructure existing institutions along Socialist lines, eventually transforming the society into a Communist one. To Marx, a society's dialectically-changing economy determined and shaped its social and economic classes.
To Lenin, culture was subordinate to political objectives. Gramsci broke with both in stating that cultural hegemony by the proletariat was necessary before state power could be achieved. This hegemony could only be attained by making alliances and compromises with a variety of forces he termed a 'historic bloc'. Failure to create this union of social forces, Gramsci argued, went a long way in explaining why, by his time, Capitalism was more firmly entrenched than ever before, in spite of Marx's predictions.
|Giambattista Vico
Another example: at the Republican National Convention in 1992, rightist politician and syndicated columnist Patrick Buchanan spoke of a Culture War in describing the clash in ideologies between U.S. liberals and conservatives. Culture War is a Gramscian term. I wonder if Mr. Buchanan was aware of this fact at the time.
Even more incredibly, there is a movement afoot from people on the far-right side of the political spectrum to make Gramscian thought their own ("Gramcism of the Right"). Antonio Gramsci, the devoted Marxist, would no doubt have a serious problem with that if he was alive today.
Still, one could forcefully argue such intellectual influence is the truest measure of the greatness of a man.
(*) – "In these less than disastrous conditions, we witness day after day the imbalanced conflict between an Italy that aspires to become European with its head held high, creating a modern nation, democratic and civil, and the forces that orbit around the public machinery and are fed by it, the forces whose objectives are to become part of the African peninsula." – Umberto Bossi

BioProspector: discovering conserved DNA motifs in upstream regulatory regions of co-expressed genes. The development of high throughput genome sequencing and gene expression techniques gives rise to the demand for data-mining tools. BioProspector, a C program using a Gibbs sampling strategy, examines the upstream region of genes in the same gene expression pattern group and looks for regulatory sequence motifs. BioProspector uses Markov background to model the base dependencies of non-motif bases, which greatly improved the specificity of the reported motifs. The parameters of the Markov background model are either estimated from user-specified sequences or pre-computed from the whole genome sequences. A new motif scoring function is adopted to allow each input sequences to contain zero to multiple copies of the motif. In addition, BioProspector can model gapped motifs and motifs with palindromic patterns, which are prevalent motif patterns in prokaryotes. All these modifications greatly improve the performance of the program. Besides showing preliminary success in finding the binding motifs for S. cerevisiae RAP1, B. subtilis RNA polymerase, and E. coli CRP, we have used BioProspector to find s54 motif from M. xanthus genome, many B. subtilis motifs from DBTBS collection of promoters, and motifs from yeast expression data.

Yes, it's soooo easy to get started TODAY!
The Basics: What is a domain name, and where do I purchase one?
A domain name is simply a user-friendly IP name with an extension like .com at the end used for blogs or websites. The domain name when typed in a web browser will be routed to your web hosting account that displays your blog and/or website. There are many technical aspects of IP addresses, DNS networks, etc. but you don't need to know how the domain really works for you to get your domain purchased and working. I recommend everyone having ownership of their personal name and business domain names if they are still available.
DreamHost.com is where I recommend to secure your domain and hosting services through.
Why? It may be a bit confusing on where you should purchase a domain and how to get it hosted on a server. DreamHost makes it super easy to get everything in one place and control it all inside a convenient account while maintaining control of your domain. This is golden.
What you want to avoid: Currently there are hundreds of companies offering domain name + hosting services. I've witnessed dozens of past clients who have unintentionally registered their own domain names in a puzzle of confusing registrar affiliates, sub-registars, etc. and not in their OWN name. Consequently, when they decided to change hosting, renew their domain, or make any change, the process of getting their hosting or domain moved and into their own control post-purchase was quite time consuming and frustrating due to lack of control over domain locking, having the correct rights to your domain, etc. Please save your time and money by purchasing your domain and hosting in your own name and from reputable companies. Again, DreamHost.com is a great place to start.
Find your domain by simply doing a free search at what is available and always try to purchase a .com address (.com was originally established for businesses: .com=commercial, .net=network, .org=non-profit organization). There are several other extensions including several country ones (.ca=Canada for example), and although you may or may not be a business, get a .com address if it is available! It is the easiest, most recognizable, standardized extension.
Next Step: Getting your domain + web hosting set up
Yes! As I just stated you can purchase your domain and hosting package together at DreamHost.com. So easy. They'll even make it easy to host your domain email. From experience, this is the easiest setup of hosting I have found in my many years as a designer. It's important to not only have a highly secure host, but one that is reliable, has great customer service, and you can easily navigate your options and DIY options in your account. I currently host under DreamHost and their interface is so clean and professional, I can host several domains under the same account for one price, I pay under $15/month, have unlimited disk space and bandwidth so I never have to pay additional fees or are forced to upgrade, plus you can install WordPress and other robust applications by simply doing a "one-click" installation. It can't get easier to get started. Seriously!
What's next? You'll need to setup your domain email and get going on your logo identity and branding, website, social media marketing, building your newsletter subscriber list, and so much more!
I can help! If you'd like help on setting up your blog, need a logo or graphics for your new site please contact me. I'd be happy to help!

"It's choice - not chance - that determines your destiny."
-Jean Nidetch
The Choices Tarot Card
Here is one of my "tarot cards" that came to me during a period of my life when the universe was communicating with me through visions. You can learn more about these drawings
. I call this one: Choices.
The way it was explained to me, you cannot make a good choice or a bad choice in this life. I know that doesn't sound right, but listen to the logic. You make millions of choices a day, and every one of those millions of choices contributes energy to the future you will create for yourself. Choice is not a single event, as you understand it to be. It is a never ending process.
The tarot card displays a choice to make. To make a choice you have to climb a series of steps. This represents the energy you must invest to decide. I remind you,
is a temptation where you do not make a choice. Just the act of making decisions harnesses the power of the light.
One path has a white colored soul inviting you down a dark path. The other is its opposite, a dark soul leading you down a lighted path. How different is this drawing from the concept of the
As I said earlier, there is no right or wrong choice. The millisecond you decide a path, you are faced with another choice, and another after that, and so on, and so on.
To identify one single decision and evaluate it as good or bad is like a taking a snapshot of yourself at age 10 years, 14, days, and 39 seconds. A single picture cannot define what you look like for your life. A single choice cannot define the evolution of your soul.
When I speak of the subject, I am always reminded of a line from one of my
Favorite Spiritual Movies
The Matrix:
"Do you really think that is air you are breathing?"
Our minds become too accustomed to what we understand as the present and refer to the past, as if it were something we could change. Time is not a material thing, so don't try to cling to it. All you achieve is creating a lesser future for yourself.
The energy of temptation is in its power of suggestion. Should you decide to act on a temptation, it is not the temptation that created a future for yourself, it is your own choice.
The Universe
creates your future by the energy you invest in your future. The more energy you invest, the better the universe can create your environment.
Fear of Wrong Decisions
When it comes to
, we can often not decide because we are afraid of what the outcome may be. If you are truly harnessing the power of the light, aren't you investing energy in creating the most amazing future for yourself and your relationships?
Don't be afraid of bad decisions, be afraid of not making them. As you can create your own amazing and wonderful future, but you have the free will to create your hell.
An Example of Using the Power
Suppose my wife is mad at me. I have just left the toilet seat up, and she almost fell in. The initial surge of emotion can lead to a reply surge of emotion from me. In no time, a stupid incident can become an argument, but I remember the choices tarot card, and I realize I can control how my future is going to be created.
I don't reply with emotion, but take a deep breath and hear her out. Of course, being a
, she is always right, (and I mean that sincerely) so I invest my energy in understanding what it might be like to almost fall into the toilet. Quite frankly, it seems darn uncomfortable. In acknowledging, relating, and understanding her communication, I am able to defuse the situation with an apology and a promise to be more aware of not allowing this future to recreate itself.
It's all really pretty simple if you harness the
Power of the Light

You Control Your Own Future
Free will is nothing short of the greatest gift the universe provides you to evolve your soul.
will have you believe the days of your life are determined by destiny or a predetermined path your soul encounters with every moment of your existence.

Wheel loaders hydraulic cylinder
Wheel loaders are widely used in landscaping, agriculture, construction, waste management, forestry or mining applications. JSRUIYA Hydraulic provides tilting and lifting cylinders for these machines. Huge impact loads are a challenge to rod seals and cylinder fatigue life. Our high-strength single-piece forged rods have a higher fatigue life, and special nickel-chromium coatings have better vibration and corrosion resistance than chromium coatings. The cylinder can achieve zero leakage even under vibration conditions.

Companies within the utilities industry provide natural gas, electric power, steam supply, water supply, and sewage removal through an impressive infrastructure of lines, mains, and pipes throughout the country. The men and women working for these companies are responsible for the development and maintenance of this permanent system, which we all rely on every day. Not only is a clear, drug-free mind necessary for effective job performance, but in this line of work, safety is critical.
Employees in the utilities industry are responsible for a multitude of safety-sensitive tasks. One could be making decisions as a Control Room Operator, carefully leading a group as a Dispatcher, fixing electrical wires high above the ground as a Lineman, using harsh chemicals/high-pressured water for fracking, or handling dangerous tools as an Explosives Technician.
Dangers facing utility workers such as well drillers, plant operators, drivers, linemen, journeymen, crane operators, field technicians and others:
• Extreme temperatures
• Falling from heights
• Slips and falls
• Electrocution
• Radioactive material exposure
• Dangerous chemical exposure
• Extremely loud noises
• Harmful gases
Mobile on-location drug and alcohol testing is a convenient way to randomly test employees in these positions, or test for reasonable suspicion and/or after accidents. The dangers affiliated with these positions are already daunting. Substance use will only make it worse.
Another solution for a drug-free company is pre-employment drug testing. This type of employee drug testing is an easy way to filter out undesirable potential employees.
For answers to any questions, please contact DISA today. We are here to help.

Real Life Tonka Toys
"Real tough toys for real tough boys" went the slogan for the eponymous metal trucks, diggers and fire engines made by Tonka going back to the 60s and 70s. And I remembered the slogan without Googling it!
My latest assignment takes me into the realm of real-life 'Tonka Toys' as I am doing work for a quarry that is full of noisy, chunky and very, very big trucks, excavators and diggers.
And dynamite. Or whatever the modern explosive equivalent is for blowing up rock!
So it's a 'big boy's' and photographer's paradise really.
Right up my street 🙂
Wheat fuels trucks
Spike Photography was up for an early start to photograph a lorry being loaded with wheat in Lincolnshire to supply a new multi-million-pound biofuels plant.
Photography client Frontier Agriculture is in charge of supplying the £200m Vivergo plant, at Saltend, in Hull, has revealed that it has signed over 500 farmers to the 'Humber Gold wheat club' in tjust a few weeks.
The Hull-based plant is set to become the largest buyer of grain in the whole of the country and hopes to buy the one million tonnes of wheat it needs each year from local farmers.
The site is a joint venture between DuPont, BP and British Sugar and will turn the wheat into biofuel for use in lorries and forklift trucks.

In the Science Times last week, Joanna Klein wrote this about sunflowers:
"At dawn, whole fields of sunflowers stand at attention, all facing east, and begin their romance with the rising sun. As that special star appears to move across the sky, young flowers follow its light, looking up, then over and westward, catching one final glance as the sun disappears over the horizon.
"At night, in its absence, the sunflowers face east again, anticipating the sun's return."
This seems a fine metaphor about how we should live and shape our actions … like sunflowers … turning toward the light, optimists — not foolish optimists but wise optimists, knowing what must be done for our planet and turning our efforts in that direction.

I am sorry to say we've decided we can't pursue this as a story after all (at this stage), because most of the people employed on the ship are and apparently will be Canadian and/or First Nations.
I apologize if you feel your time was wasted. We had to prioritize stories for the fall and the consensus was not to pursue this one.
Kathy Tomlinson
National Reporter
CBC Go Public
Dear Honourable Chris Alexander, P.C., M.P.,
I am writing to complain about what appears to be an abuse of Canada's Temporary Foreign Worker Program, on the Latvian flagged ship, Motor Vessel (MV) Silja Festival, currently operating in Kitimat, British Columbia. The ship is a non-Canadian vessel, but has been granted a waiver from the Canada Coasting Trade Act, issued by the Canada Transportation Agency (http://www.otc-cta.gc.ca/eng/ruling/229-w-2014). This large foreign ship and its non-Canadian maritime officers have been operating in Canada Since early 2014, and is expected to continue operating for an estimated 2 years, supporting the est. $4.8 billion upgrades to the Rio Tinto aluminum smelter in Kitimat, BC.
The Estonian managers of the MV Silja Festival, HT Laevateenindus, through a Vancouver law firm, Bernard LLP, have posted numerous "Help Wanted" advertising on differing medium, principally the WorkBC website this past summer, and again in the fall, on Workopolis.ca (and others), in search of qualified marine personnel, principally Deck and Engineering Officers. The terms for the positions advertised are considerably lower than the Canadian market currently offers. In my particular case, I estimate that it represents a 55%-60% cut in wages.
A ship is a big, complex machine and needs many skilled people to operate. On the MV Silja Festival, the people working on deck, in the engine room, and in the "hotel" are called ratings or catering staff – typically "lower skilled" labour. The Officers are in charge of the ship's operations in the Engine Room (Engineering Officer) and on Deck (Navigation Officer), and the ratings in these departments; the most senior Deck Officer is the Captain or Master. Maritime Officers are highly trained and vetted individuals who typically spend about 10+ years in professional training to become officers. It is my understanding that catering staff, and some rating positions are supposedly filled by Canadians on the MV Silja Festival.
I am one of those Engineers; a Transport Canada Certified Marine Engineering Officer with 18 years of shipboard experience, including 4 years on large passenger ships. I hold the correct certification, and have relevant experience to be able to work on this vessel, in particular as Engineering Officer of the Watch, such as what they advertised they were looking for. I am also qualified to perform additional roles advertised. I submitted my application to Ms. Catherine Hoffman, at Bernard LLP, on June July 26th, 2014, as directed in the advertisement found on the WorkBC website, which ran from June – September 2014. I have not received any reply, or acknowledgements since.
From discussions with peers, I have positively identified four other qualified Maritime Officers that have applied for the various Deck and Engine Room positions (despites the significant disparity between terms offered and the Canadian norms), and they also have not received any replies from their applications. I, and my peers, are of the opinion that this is false advertisement with no intentions of hiring qualified Canadian maritime officers, in an effort to satisfy various governmental "due process" requirements. We believe the true motive is to maintain the lower paid foreign Engineers and Navigation Officers onboard, presumably, to increase profits for the non-Canadian ship owner.
I am of course very upset about this situation. It is not acceptable to our family, because it is work I could be doing in my home province – I currently have to fly out of province to support my family – my spouse and our three young children, ages 9, 7 and 5. The wages offered undercut my ability to compete in my chosen profession – an already demanding and difficult profession - despite an extensive and burdensome investment in training and certification on our part.
I am not afraid to compete internationally, and I have in the past. However, these foreign officers received tax break in their home countries (not to mention, lower cost of living), which tax breaks are not applicable to professional Canadian seafarers working internationally. I suspect they do not pay Canadian income taxes either, despite benefiting from Canadian taxpayer funded infrastructure while working in Kitimat – such as hospitals, roads, WorkBC website. Without a similar tax burden, these foreign officers are therefore able to dramatically undercut my wages and conditions, not to mention, this ship directly removes work from Canadian companies and their employees. There are very few words I can use that can adequately describe my feelings of this unacceptable situation.
I request and expect that you will look into this matter with utmost expediency, and provide an explanation as to why this situation is allowed to continue. Attached, is my resume for your information, similar to the one I submitted to Bernard LLP. I am quite willing to back all of my claims with names and relevant documentation.
Yours sincerely

Twister6 posted on Head-Fi his review of the N8 DAP. From the unboxing photos it appears to be a very attractive digital audio player and has a plethora of cable types include. I will leave the details for you to read in the review but the fact that you have the choice of vacuum tube and solid state amplification in 3.5mm headphone output is intriguing. The one downside is that if my math is correct the cost in US Dollars is over $3,300.
Pros – Solid State and Vacuum Tube (Korg NuTube) amp outputs, High Output mode, solid stainless-steel build, responsive interface, plenty of digital and analog outputs, selection of custom cable adapters, duplex LDAC Bluetooth support.
Cons – price, weight, touchy up/down dial, 5sec tube warm up delay (more of annoyance than Con).

Churni Ganguly's debut film Nirbashito had won accolades on the national and international circuit before its release in Kolkata. I was initially apprehensive as I had thought that the film will be too serious and will make statements on political issues. However I was pretty surprised at the way the film unfolded.
The film Nirbashito is the story of a writer who has to go on exile due to her liberal views on religion and her take on patriarchy. Trouble unfolds when she has to leave her dear cat, Baaghini back at her home. The cat is not only a pet but is like a daughter for the writer. The cat leads a lonely life and so does the writer in her exile. The writer's friends try to send the cat to her but they do not succeed. She seeks solace in her new found friends in Sweden. The writer also realizes that values like commitment and humanity go across petty religious or political boundaries.
Actor turned director Churni Ganguly's debut film gives the audience "food for thought". It does not preach or underline any issue. It simply showcases what happens to an individual (woman in this case) when the person independently states facts which are not liked by the macrocosm of the society. The administration takes steps to prevent Baaghini to be sent to the writer in Sweden. This also suggests the high handed measures that the administration often takes to make their point to the people and suppress their individual liberties.
The film is cinematically beautiful and has been shot extremely well. Sirsha Ray, the DoP of the film deserves praise for the excellent camera work. The camera angles blended well with the way the director chose to narrate this tale of loneliness of a writer in exile.
The acting department consisting of Churni Ganguly, Raima Sen, Saswata Chatterjee along with Swedish actors Lars Bethke, Lia Boysenis, Martin Wallstrom, Joakim Granberg and Yohanna Idha have done a commendable job. They actually help in carrying forth the movie and also making the audience yearn for the writer to come back to her homeland.
Special mention must be made of the cat that played the role of Baaghini. She surely made a mark amongst the big names in the acting list. While the performance by the Labrador in Srijit Mukherji's film Nirbaak had been highly praised by the audience and critics alike, the cat's performance in Churni Ganguly's Nirbashito is above all praises and criticisms. Baaghini is simply adorable!
Nirbashito is not a film which preaches anything or protests against anything. It is simply a beautifully told tale of an exiled writer and her cat. The film deserves to be seen for the human emotions it portrays.

Do employees (and former employees) have the right to see their own personnel file? You bet.
In the employment law context, many wrongful termination/wrongful disciplinary action cases deal with allegations by an employer of an employee's misconduct.

Vocal cords surgery and treatment
Voice centre in Cosmetic surgery clinic dr Toncic – Center for vocal cords surgery and treatment.
Voice communication is important in all spheres of life: business, emotional, educational, artistic and political. Therefore, sick voice significantly impairs communication.
The majority of our Voice centre patients are professional voice users: singers, actors, radio and television announcers, journalists, business people, managers, lawyers, politicians and others; basically, all those who put special voice and emotional efforts in their professional oral communication.
Intense and professional voice usage, frequently irregular, affects voice and often leads to phonotrauma: excess tissue or formation of scars on the vocal cords. Sick voice can be the first sign of some neurological diseases or tumours of some other parts of the body.
In Voice Center at Cosmetic surgery clinic Dr Toncic we use exclusive methods and cosmetic surgery skills for voice improvement and vocal cords regeneration:
- injection of patient's own fat in thinned or paralytic vocal cords
- application of hyaluronic acid in non-elastic vocal cords
- application of Botox for spastic hoarseness
- surgery of vocal nodules, polyps, vocal cord cysts, blood vessels and premalignant lesions
Hoarseness is a disease that can be noticed. Therefore, it should be used for early and exact diagnostics through methods which visualise vocal cords and their function. After that, we decide the type of the treatment necessary – conservative or phonosurgical. Beside hoarseness, all unpleasant sensations in one's throat require specialist examination. Vocal cords damage can detected, which is followed by vocal cords recovery planning.
Therefore, in the Voice center of Cosmetic surgery clinic dr. Toncic we perform:
- diagnostics of hoarseness causes
- therapy planning
- phonosurgical procedures
- postoperative follow up of the patients after surgery
- Phonosurgical procedures:
The basic principle of phonosurgical procedures is a precise removal of excess tissue, while we aim to spare valuable functional tissue as much as possible. We exclusively perform phonosurgcical procedures of vocal cord tissue regeneration and also, to vocal cords we apply hyaluronic acid, collagen and patient's own fat cells extracted via liposuction and then processed.
We also use combined procedure of excess tissue removal and regenerating procedures, as often both is necessary.
Beside voice regeneration, we also remove excess tissue on vocal cords – knots, polyps, leukoplakia, cysts and risky premalignant lesions.
The vocal cord recovery after the procedure is individual and depends on the type of the procedure and anatomical characteristics of the patient and his or her specific conditions. The patient stays at the clinic for approximately 12 hours, when the patient is sent to home care. Sometimes, the patients stay at the clinic overnight and the following morning, after the medical check-up, the patient is discharged from the hospital. Following the procedure, the surgeon advises the patient to rest the voice, to ensure the best vocal cord recovery, and after few days the patient can start using voice carefully, and be present for regular check-ups at the clinic.
In Cosmetic surgery clinic Dr Toncic, the procedures on vocal cords are performed by an expert for vocal cords diseases and their treatment, prof.dr.sc. Santa Vecerina Volic.

It's was a funny old year 2013. There was more change than I could have imagined with Jazz finally getting funding to support her move towards independence as an adult. This of course meant that after being a constant carer for many years, under extreme circumstances, I had some of my own time back.
My initial thoughts were to use this time to take strident legal action on her behalf for the lack of post adoption support she received, the lack of support to keep her in school, the all round general dogs dinner the local authority made of listening to her needs and protecting us from harm. After a good think though, I knew it was far better to put that energy into creating something positive, something inspired by the strength of our relationship and the love rather than the regrets and the angry bits.
So we began the setting up of The Open Nest and the opening up of our experience to others. This took a lot of trust on Jazz and I's part. Using blogging, Twitter and Facebook was something entirely new to us. Our lives laid bare, in some ways to illustrate and advocate for the fact that we knew we weren't the only ones. Of course it soon became apparent that we weren't and that trust was rewarded. We have met some wonderful people through Twitter who have supported and advised and been all round good guys in the setting up of the charity. They really represent the word "trustee" in the true sense of the word.
On the other hand 2013 highlighted the dangers in trusting people. Employing support people for Jazz has been so much harder than we could ever imagine and getting the wrong ones at times has had very negative emotional affects on her and her trust issues.
One of the most shocking things to happen last year was that a "friend" in the guise of supporting the charity, publicly raised funds in our name and then refused to give us the money. Even though I am old enough to know there are untrustworthy people around this really did make me question everything.
Whilst dealing with the aftermath of both losing a friend and a big chunk of faith, Jazz's lovely birth dad Fred died. The timing was always going to be bad but ten days before Christmas was cruel. Life stuck the boot in further when the funeral was scheduled for Christmas Eve. The only saving grace was that it bought her and her siblings together. A lot of preparation was done before the funeral around healthy goodbyes and trusting those around her to keep her safe through the emotional storm of loss and death.
We were floored when at the funeral Fred's older children from his first marriage had arranged the service to omit her and her brothers very existence. My heart broke as the service unfolded and Fred was remembered as a loyal and loving father to A, B, C and D but no mention of the three young people who sat huddled, clinging to each other in grief and humiliation. Their chance of a healthy goodbye was stolen from under our noses.
I knew the first family disapproved, with some good reason, of their fathers second wife ( she was asked not to attend the service to avoid trouble) but he loved her and his children. He spent many Christmas's and birthdays with Jazz and my family and friends over the last ten years and took his parental role towards Jazz seriously despite her mums failings. We looked after him as he grew weak and we loved him. Again our faith and trust in human nature was dented.
In the past few weeks I've had to question myself, am I too trusting? am I naive? am I too soft? I even thought I needed to make serious resolutions for the New Year to harden up and not trust people so easily.
But then I thought…… "bugger that".
I like being a trusting person. I like the openness our family has and the trust and honesty I believe I have encouraged in Jazz. I like being a big softy and having faith in human nature to do the right thing.
So my New Years resolution is the same as ever. In 2014 I will count my blessings and not let the bastards grind me down.

One of the most useful apps will be an address locator with an 'auto complete search' function. Sources say it will be exhaustive that even if you cannot give the complete address, it will direct you to the right location. It will come with driving directions with hospitals, police stations, grocery shops, malls and shopping complexes and multiplexes highlighted. Even bill payment outlets will be covered. A similar app would be a boon in Salt Lake as well, where visitors drive around in circles looking for addresses.
Another app will be on places of interest in New Town. What's interesting, each such location will have an audio script that you can access once you arrive. It will have a separate section on Eco Park, listing out activities, upcoming attractions and new announcements. Each location in New Town will be given a 'signage number plate'. Once you input this number, it will open up an audio tour guide. Another
A mobile app on transport schedules will be of immense help. It will let commuters know bus time tables and more importantly, help them track the expected arrival time of the bus. There will be a separate app that will update residents and visitors on current and upcoming events in the township every day. You only have to key in the location or type of event to get the list, said an official. The list of the entire collection at Seniors' Library is being embedded in an app. All these apps will have feedback features so that people can offer suggestions.

Or at least Shannon Day, who blogs at Martinis & Motherhood, likes me. She's nominated me for a Liebster Award. Thanks, Shannon, for choosing me to participate! (No, we're not related as far as we know – no nepotism here.)

- What's your exercise of choice? Yoga, preferably Iyengar style.
- Where is your ideal vacation spot? Any beach on the Caribbean.
- How long have you been blogging? Three years in June.

- What are your guilty pleasures? Afternoon naps, super-dark chocolate, and coconut-covered dates.
- What gets you down? Driving in rush-hour traffic so I almost never do it.
- What makes you happy? A lazy afternoon and a good book. A rare combo around here.

Validity depends on a standardized evaluation state of affairs, and issues have been anything nevertheless standardized in Alaska final week." The cancellation implies that tens of one thousand's of Alaska's public school faculty college students in grades three via 10 won't sit for math and studying exams that are mandated underneath federal law, leaving a hole in annual data on pupil performance statewide, and in each district and specific individual faculty.
It looks as if they need not go (back) to highschool considering the celebrity and fortune nevertheless it certainly's fairly an admirable trait that they do care about ending their education. The Department of Anthropology provides a 39-credit score fundamental, a 18-credit score minor, and a 18-credit score interdisciplinary minor in historic heart analysis and open historic past. Poor schooling is disempowering our individuals, that's, till you have gotten money to send your child to higher faculties, you are doomed.
Most college students tried to do the work themselves, making at least one go by the use of the venture on their very personal before succumbing to the necessity, somewhat than the necessity, to cheat," in line with Smith, William M. in Why Students Cheat in Journal of Education Studies. And loans or college costs are normally not the only traits that negatively have an effect on many faculty students. The National Defense Education Act of 1958, spurred by the chilly conflict, changed U.S. coaching in additional methods than one.
I graduated my Bachelor degree in Secondary Education 12 months 1998 pa and handed the LET sa parehong taon. The Department of Education Organization Act isolated the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare into the Department of Education and the Department of Health and Human Services. If you may have quite a few scholar loans in default, think about consolidating them by way of the federal authorities's Direct Loans program.
I even have witnessed dad and mom talking about how they really feel they've rescued their children again from a system that put far too much pressure on them to maneuver checks, exams that measure the teacher's capacity to show, barely than whether or not or not the schooling system is working for the kid. Some states have already got made this change with the approval of the U.S. Department of Education, and others are contemplating following suit with passage of ESSA. They all have a bit ethic in-built that locations the common North American scholar to disgrace. Education philanthropists have poured billions into remaking" public education.
