HARARE – A man accused of undermining the authority of President Emmerson Mnangagwa was yesterday released on $100 bail by magistrate Rumbidzai Mugwagwa.
Gastaff Kativhu, 46, allegedly entered the venue of the Zanu PF extraordinary congress in Harare and headed to the VIP tent while waving placards accusing Mnangagwa of killing his friend and calling for the UN to supervise Zimbabwe's forthcoming general elections.
The placard also accused the Zanu PF government of failing to fulfil its election promise to provide millions of jobs. His placard also accused Mnangagwa and Vice President Constantino Chiwenga of being part of a diamond mafia.
He told the court that he was being threatened by unknown visitors in remand prison.
Kativhu's lawyer Job Sikhala told the court that the prisons system was allowing "strange people" to visit his client in remand prison.
Sikhala had lodged a bail application to have his client released protesting his "unlawful" arrest.
Sikhala also gave a notice to challenge the lawfulness of his arrest.
As part of his bail conditions, he was ordered to report on Mondays and Fridays at Dzivaresekwa Police Station and submit his passport.
Sikhala lodged a bail application to have his client released protesting his "unlawful" arrest.
If convicted, Kativhu faces a sentence of a fine or one year imprisonment. He is also charged with disorderly conduct in a public place which carries a six-month sentence.
"Courts should not be frightened by big names thrown before it," Sikhala said while responding to prosecutor Micheal Reza's opposition to bail.
"He (Kativhu) has been working for the King of Saudi Arabia since 2004, he is a celebrated international engineer, he has a house in Dzivaresekwa and is developing an industrial complex in Workington.
"That issue that he comes from Mudzi must not discriminate him , it's not his fault, it was the design of God — why should the people be undermined that they should not enjoy constitutional rights," he said after Reza had argued that there was a possibility that if granted bail, Kativhu might escape to Mozambique as Mudzi is close to Mozambique.
Reza claimed Kativhu was a flight risk because he faced serious allegations.
On December 15 2017, Zanu PF held an extraordinary congress at Robert Mugabe Square opposite Rotten Row Court, in Harare. The main agenda of the congress was to endorse President Mnangagwa as the sole presidential candidate of Zanu PF in the forthcoming 2018 harmonised elections.
The State alleges that Kativhu was then seen at the venue heading towards the VIP tent waving three placards written '' Another 37 years no jobs", "Election by UN or else 2008", "Chiwenga don't beat up vendors, give them jobs" , "Mnangagwa, Chiwenga diamond mafia", "Mnangagwa killed my friend" and "Zanu PF is giving your jobs to China"

Clock Restaurant
- 4 comments
- font size decrease font size increase font size
Liver, onions big feature at this lunch stop
By Mike Sanford, GLOB Editor
I am here to inform you that The Clock also satisfies any lunch cravings you might have for Homestyle Favorites (as it's called on their menu), including Hearty Homemade Meatloaf, Liver & Onions with Bacon(!), Grilled Pork Chops, and Spaghetti & Meatballs.
Liver and onions! I was sure that the only place I could find L&Os in GLOBland was the Picadilly Cafeteria on NW 13th St.
I had to have it. Like all the Clock's Home Style Favorites, my liver and onions was accompanied by a choice of soup or salad; potato, onion rings or rice pilaf; vegetable of the day; and a buttermilk biscuit or dinner roll. These menu items can also be found under Senior Specials at reduced prices and without the carb.
Swimming in memories of liver and onion dinners of the past while I was enjoying this nice lunch, I am sure my eyes glazed over and anyone who had noticed might have thought I was deep in thought rather than lost in nostalgia.
The Clock is a special place if you are into memories, times gone by such as the experience of how lunch used to served. Nothing fancy here. You will find friendly servers who I found were calling many of their customers by their first name.
This old fashioned lunch stop has it all. This could be why they call this place Clock Family Restaurants – something for anyone at anytime. That means breakfast all day, including Belgian waffles or steak and eggs because sometimes you just gotta have breakfast for lunch.
I don't think the Clock is trying to be a five star restaurant. I do know this long-time, established restaurant has a lot of faithful followers for a number of reasons -- like a complete separate section of senior specials for breakfast, lunch, and dinner; basic meals like chopped sirloin steak, meatloaf, seafood, country fried steak and "Classic Steaks"; and, more to the point here, a substantial list of various burgers, salads, regular sandwiches, open faced sandwiches, melts, and soup. Plus, might I suggest you give the liver and onions a try? This old fashioned restaurant deserved a try if home sttye cooking is on your lunch agenda.
As my cardiologist would tell me, "Mike, all of these dishes are loaded with cholesterol," or as I like to call it, heart stopping good.
The Pluses and Minuses of The Clock Restaurant:
The Clock's (+) indicators: A nice trip into a time forgotten for a unique, tasty homestyle lunch. After four or five visits I bet they know your name.
The Clock's (-) indicators: Nothing fancy here if you are into ambience, designer food, or notoriety this might not be the place for you.
Offer your GLOB comments, lunch photographs and opinions about the Clock restaurant. Please identify your opinions with a PLUS SIGN (+) for positive comments, and a MINUS SIGN (-) for your negative comments. - THANKS!

Sally-Ann J
I have just seen the new issue of Thame Out and I'm very impressed with the photo's, the kitchen looks wonderful and I have already received lots of compliments. My new kitchen is such a pleasure to work in and our friends and family now seem to hang out around the new island, so I get to join in with the drinks and chat while I'm cooking! My thanks to everyone at Kingsey Kitchens for the great design and workmanship.
Best wishes
Sue S
The team at Kingsey Kitchens were wonderful to work with, right from the planning stage to the installation by two excellent craftsmen. Everything was delivered on time, problems which arose due to unexpected alterations by the builders were dealt with calmly and swiftly and it came in within budget. We are really happy with our new kitchen and thoroughly recommend the company.
Fay and her team at Kingsey Kitchens built and installed a wonderful kitchen for us that we are totally delighted with. Fay was delightful to work with — full of good ideas, not remotely pushy, very easy-going and happy for us to pop in whenever we liked to look at countertops, cabinetry, etc. She got a local turner to make beautiful drawer handles that matched our countertop and got us discounts on some electrical items. Kingsey have also made lovely wardrobe fittings for our bedrooms upstairs. Everything is built to a high standard and we are confident it will all last for many years to come.
Delighted with my new look kitchen, perhaps you might like to drop in and see how well it worked out?
Thank you so much for all your help.
Just realised I hadn't emailed you since our island has been finished. Just wanted to say that we are over the moon with it and it looks gorgeous in the kitchen. Thanks for persevering with us 🙂
Take Care
Heard my son holding fort to his little mate on Skype last night.
'My flat is like a five star hotel. You don't even have to use the light switch you just wave. And it has this cool yoga ball instead of an office chair'. It takes a lot to impress my kid.
I woke up this morning and honestly thought I'd dreamed the whole thing.
Thank you so much
Claire R & JD
Fay, absolutely chuffed to bits with the kitchen. Biased of course, but it looks stunning. Thank you to all concerned.
Must get you all round once we are properly in.
Many thanks,
Juanita here – just to say I am loving my new kitchen. I LOVE the larder – I keep going in and standing in it – just because I can. I made cheese sauce tonight and found the flour immediately without having to empty the cupboard!!! I am enjoying the induction hob – thanks for the persuasion – and I love the design – it really works!!! Can't wait till it is finished now and can show it all off!
"Woke up this morning and stood looking at the kitchen thinking
"Wow! We have the kitchen we have always wanted"
We just love it 🙂
Thank you Fay and Kingsey Kitchens
I can't stop staring at our kitchen….it's gorgeous! All fabulous things come to those who wait….

35 cents: social media and social activism
The Woolworth's lunch counter was a long L-shaped bar that could seat sixty-six people, with a standup snack bar at one end. The seats were for whites. The snack bar was for blacks. Another employee, a black woman who worked at the steam table, approached the students and tried to warn them away. "You're acting stupid, ignorant!" she said. They didn't move. Around five-thirty, the front doors to the store were locked. The four still didn't move. Finally, they left by a side door. Outside, a small crowd had gathered, including a photographer from the Greensboro Record. "I'll be back tomorrow with A. & T. College," one of the students said.
By next morning, the protest had grown to twenty-seven men and four women, most from the same dormitory as the original four. The men were dressed in suits and ties. The students had brought their schoolwork, and studied as they sat at the counter. On Wednesday, students from Greensboro's "Negro" secondary school, Dudley High, joined in, and the number of protesters swelled to eighty. By Thursday, the protesters numbered three hundred, including three white women, from the Greensboro campus of the University of North Carolina. By Saturday, the sit-in had reached six hundred. People spilled out onto the street. White teen-agers waved Confederate flags. Someone threw a firecracker. At noon, the A. & T. football team arrived. "Here comes the wrecking crew," one of the white students shouted.
By the following Monday, sit-ins had spread to Winston-Salem, twenty-five miles away, and Durham, fifty miles away. The day after that, students at Fayetteville State Teachers College and at Johnson C. Smith College, in Charlotte, joined in, followed on Wednesday by students at St. Augustine's College and Shaw University, in Raleigh. On Thursday and Friday, the protest crossed state lines, surfacing in Hampton and Portsmouth, Virginia, in Rock Hill, South Carolina, and in Chattanooga, Tennessee. By the end of the month, there were sit-ins throughout the South, as far west as Texas. "I asked every student I met what the first day of the sitdowns had been like on his campus," the political theorist Michael Walzer wrote in Dissent. "The answer was always the same: 'It was like a fever. Everyone wanted to go.' " Some seventy thousand students eventually took part. Thousands were arrested and untold thousands more radicalized. These events in the early sixties became a civil-rights war that engulfed the South for the rest of the decade—and it happened without e-mail, texting, Facebook, or Twitter.
So one crucial fact about the four freshmen at the Greensboro lunch counter—David Richmond, Franklin McCain, Ezell Blair, and Joseph McNeil—was their relationship with one another. McNeil was a roommate of Blair's in A. & T.'s Scott Hall dormitory. Richmond roomed with McCain one floor up, and Blair, Richmond, and McCain had all gone to Dudley High School. The four would smuggle beer into the dorm and talk late into the night in Blair and McNeil's room. They would all have remembered the murder of Emmett Till in 1955, the Montgomery bus boycott that same year, and the showdown in Little Rock in 1957. It was McNeil who brought up the idea of a sit-in at Woolworth's. They'd discussed it for nearly a month. Then McNeil came into the dorm room and asked the others if they were ready. There was a pause, and McCain said, in a way that works only with people who talk late into the night with one another, "Are you guys chicken or not?" Ezell Blair worked up the courage the next day to ask for a cup of coffee because he was flanked by his roommate and two good friends from high school.
The kind of activism associated with social media isn't like this at all. The platforms of social media are built around weak ties. Twitter is a way of following (or being followed by) people you may never have met. Facebook is a tool for efficiently managing your acquaintances, for keeping up with the people you would not otherwise be able to stay in touch with. That's why you can have a thousand "friends" on Facebook, as you never could in real life.
This is in many ways a wonderful thing. There is strength in weak ties, as the sociologist Mark Granovetter has observed. Our acquaintances—not our friends—are our greatest source of new ideas and information. The Internet lets us exploit the power of these kinds of distant connections with marvellous efficiency. It's terrific at the diffusion of innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, seamlessly matching up buyers and sellers, and the logistical functions of the dating world. But weak ties seldom lead to high-risk activism.
In a new book called "The Dragonfly Effect: Quick, Effective, and Powerful Ways to Use Social Media to Drive Social Change," the business consultant Andy Smith and the Stanford Business School professor Jennifer Aaker tell the story of Sameer Bhatia, a young Silicon Valley entrepreneur who came down with acute myelogenous leukemia. It's a perfect illustration of social media's strengths. Bhatia needed a bone-marrow transplant, but he could not find a match among his relatives and friends. The odds were best with a donor of his ethnicity, and there were few South Asians in the national bone-marrow database. So Bhatia's business partner sent out an e-mail explaining Bhatia's plight to more than four hundred of their acquaintances, who forwarded the e-mail to their personal contacts; Facebook pages and YouTube videos were devoted to the Help Sameer campaign. Eventually, nearly twenty-five thousand new people were registered in the bone-marrow database, and Bhatia found a match.
But how did the campaign get so many people to sign up? By not asking too much of them. That's the only way you can get someone you don't really know to do something on your behalf. You can get thousands of people to sign up for a donor registry, because doing so is pretty easy. You have to send in a cheek swab and—in the highly unlikely event that your bone marrow is a good match for someone in need—spend a few hours at the hospital. Donating bone marrow isn't a trivial matter. But it doesn't involve financial or personal risk; it doesn't mean spending a summer being chased by armed men in pickup trucks. It doesn't require that you confront socially entrenched norms and practices. In fact, it's the kind of commitment that will bring only social acknowledgment and praise.
The evangelists of social media don't understand this distinction; they seem to believe that a Facebook friend is the same as a real friend and that signing up for a donor registry in Silicon Valley today is activism in the same sense as sitting at a segregated lunch counter in Greensboro in 1960. "Social networks are particularly effective at increasing motivation," Aaker and Smith write. But that's not true. Social networks are effective at increasing participation—by lessening the level of motivation that participation requires. The Facebook page of the Save Darfur Coalition has 1,282,339 members, who have donated an average of nine cents apiece. The next biggest Darfur charity on Facebook has 22,073 members, who have donated an average of thirty-five cents. Help Save Darfur has 2,797 members, who have given, on average, fifteen cents. A spokesperson for the Save Darfur Coalition told Newsweek, "We wouldn't necessarily gauge someone's value to the advocacy movement based on what they've given. This is a powerful mechanism to engage this critical population. They inform their community, attend events, volunteer. It's not something you can measure by looking at a ledger." In other words, Facebook activism succeeds not by motivating people to make a real sacrifice but by motivating them to do the things that people do when they are not motivated enough to make a real sacrifice. We are a long way from the lunch counters of Greensboro.

This afternoon, the U.S. House of Representatives is due to vote on a resolution (PDF text here) that, in the wake of the United States' killing of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani would direct the President "to terminate the use of United States Armed Forces to engage in hostilities in or against Iran or any part of its government or military" unless either Congress has declared war or "such use of the Armed Forces is necessary and appropriate to defend against an imminent armed attack… "
Voting on this resolution is expected to take place later this after (EST). This is the most serious attempt Congress has made to assert its constitutionally mandate power to declare war since it passed the Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) resolution of Octo0ber 2002, which authorized the President to launch the invasion of Iraq five months later. Since then, the military operations that successive presidents have authorized in the Middle East have been bundled and justified under that AUMF.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi launched this new legislative initiative in response to the assassination of Gen. Soleimani in the early hours of January 3, Baghdad time, which sparked widespread fears of the kind of serious Iranian response that might catapult the Middle East and indeed the world into a conflict of apocalyptical proportions.
In response, a group of eminent American intellectuals led by Professors Noam Chomsky and Richard Falk and veteran antiwar activist Daniel Ellsberg issued a stirring public letter calling on Congress to, "fulfill its most solemn constitutional responsibility, and impose effective restraints on the war-making actions of this impeached president."
This, the letters' signatories noted,
is a moment when partisan politics should be put aside, not only for the sake of national interests but for the benefit of humanity – -we should realize that these unilateral actions by the United States have put the entire world at risk. It is also a moment when Republicans as well as Democrats must stand up for a sane foreign policy, and for diplomacy and peace instead of aggression and war, and fulfill their duties as Members of Congress.
Just World Educational is proud that Richard Falk is a member of our Board of Directors. Another JWE leader, President Helena Cobban, has also been working actively on the US-Iran issue over the past ten days, in her capacity as an expert analyst of Middle eastern and strategic affairs.
Ms. Cobban published two timely analyses of the US-Iran confrontation on the "Responsible Statecraft" site:
- Can escalation be prevented in Iraq? (Jan. 1)
- World poised on post-Soleimani knife-edge. Possible off-ramp emerges? (Jan. 6)
Most recently, yesterday (January 8) she published this commentary, Trump and Khamenei de-escalate. Political struggle inside Iraq continues on her personal "Just World News" blog.
(The image at the head of this blog-post is a satellite image published by the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey that shows the precision with which Iranian missiles hit unmanned facilities in the U.S. Ain al-Assad base in Western Iraq, on the night of January 7.)
The post As U.S. Congress votes on war powers, Falk & Cobban join the discussion appeared first on Just World Educational.

Hideo Kojima's exit from Konami isn't just the end of Metal Gear as we know it. It's the end of the era of big-name directors running the show in Japan.
From all appearances, the groundbreaking director of the influential, often brilliant Metal Gear Solid games will be done with
It may not be a stretch to say that there will never be another Kojima, no one creator who holds such sway over a massive big-budget gaming enterprise. It's too expensive, too risky a business to be left up to the creative whims of a single auteur. But that's precisely what the Japanese game business was, for a long time. Kojima's exit just puts a period on it. The era of the Legendary Game Designer producing massive triple-A games at Japanese studios is officially over.
As one of the world's most famous game directors (based entirely on the strength of his signature game series), Kojima had had quite the sweetheart deal going on since Metal Gear Solid struck gold on the original PlayStation. His development company Kojima Productions was created as a Konami subsidiary, operating semi-autonomously. Now the Kojima Productions website redirects to Konami, its Twitter is gone, and its US operation has been renamed Konami Los Angeles.
Most of Japan's most famous game designers already have split from the publishers that made them famous, opening studios of their own. Capcom's powerhouse producers Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil) and Keiji Inafune (Mega Man) are long gone. Tomonobu Itagaki (Ninja Gaiden) is no longer with Koei Tecmo. Castlevania chief Koji Igarashi left Konami last year.
Kojima was the one major holdout, probably because of how Kojima Productions was set up. The games he created there were blockbusters, but they also were (not to understate the case) batshit crazy; Metal Gear was synonymous with elaborate, tangled storylines that took dozens of hours of elaborately produced cinematic scenes to unfold, and even then you weren't quite sure just what had happened.

Cyclist Luke Rowe 'gutted' by Tour of Flanders disqualification
Welsh cyclist Luke Rowe says his controversial disqualification from the Tour of Flanders will "fuel" him for his forthcoming races in Paris-Roubaix and at the Commonwealth Games.
The Team Sky rider has only just returned after seven months out with a broken leg.
He was disqualified by the race jury in Belgium on Sunday after riding onto a bike path amongst spectators.
"Of course I'm gutted," said the 28-year-old.
"There was a bit of flick in the line and I got forced onto the bike path.
"I was on the bike path for about 100 metres and it was a case of end up on the bike path or hit a bit of road furniture and crash and I got forced onto the bike path.
"It's not an option I wanted to take. That led to me getting disqualified from the race."
From France to the Gold Coast
Rowe will now compete in the one day Paris-Roubaix road race on 8 April before representing Wales at the Commonwealth Games on Australia's Gold Coast.
And he is determined to put the controversy and his injury problems behind him.
"Yeah I guess it fuels the fire a little bit," he added.
"In a normal year I'd have done quite a few more classics in the build-up, but this year with only riding the last few classics there's only so many opportunities, so you've got to grab them with both hands.
"In the last few years I've had a bit of bad luck in these races. A couple of years ago I crashed and broke some ribs and last year in Flanders I crashed pretty hard.
"I just want a clean run, no punctures, sometimes these things go your way sometimes they don't."
Rowe admits he's eagerly anticipating the opportunity to race for Wales down under after finishing sixth in the road race in Glasgow 2014, won by compatriot Geraint Thomas.
He is in the squad for the road race events and is keen to repay the support shown to him by Team Wales during his recovery from injury.
Much of Rowe's recovery was spent at Sport Wales National Centre in Cardiff.
"I've met a lot of the other athletes, the staff and worked closely with them and they've really helped me with the rehab… so I kind of feel like I'm a bit more integrated in the team.
"I think that will make it a bit more special.
"I remember that when you go into Sport Wales there's a sign, a ticker with a countdown to the Commonwealth Games, and I remember going in and every time I looked it was counting down.
"I always kind of had one eye on it and you know as the weeks went down the days were decreasing and decreasing, suddenly I started really taking steps forward and that's when I realised I could actually make it.
"I think that's something I'll always remember about those days… I would always look at that sign, register it and see how many days there were to go."

Bachtobji underlines in Berlin Tunisia's success in promoting transparency, good governance and improving investment climate
Summit, in which he highlighted Tunisia's successes in strengthening security and promoting transparency, good governance and the investment climate.
Bachtobji, instructed by the President of the Republic to lead the Tunisian delegation to the Summit, said that Tunisia has made progress for the second year in a row in the Doing Business report published by the World Bank, commending the long-standing friendship between Tunisia and Germany "which has reached the level of strategic partnership".
In this context, he welcomed the support and funding mechanisms put in place by the German government to encourage investment and partnerships with African countries, considering that Tunisia's participation since 2017 in the German initiative "Charter with Africa" confirmed the promising opportunities of the African continent for cooperation and investment, as well as the common aspiration to work harder to boost private investment in Africa in a mutually beneficial partnership.
The Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs also expressed Tunisia's determination to pursue the reforms necessary to achieve the hoped for economic transition in response to the current economic and social challenges and the employment and development aspirations of its youth.
"Tunisia continues to consolidate the democratic transition by enshrining the principles of the rule of law, institutions and alternation in power by holding fair and transparent legislative and presidential elections," he said.
The 3rd session of the "G20 Compact with Africa" Summit is organised under the auspices of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, in the presence of several African Heads of State and Government who are partners in this charter, including Morocco, Egypt, Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, Rwanda, Senegal and Togo.
The initiative, launched by the German G20 presidency in 2017, aims to encourage private investment, promote development and create jobs in African countries.

All machines need regular attention and overhauling them at set intervals not only enhances their longevity but also a direct impact on the longevity of the overall functioning. Users must, however, remember that cold room maintenance is not simple. It needs to be precise, within the time scheduled and extremely focused.
Especially in a tropical country like Malaysia, high humidity with warm temperature will cause the storage food rotten very fast if our cold room is malfunctioning.
As a cold room maintenance firm, we do understand the user's limitation, especially if they deal with easily perishable goods like fruits and vegetables and essential items like medicines. The primary approach has to be timely service with unmatched perfection and a direct assessment of the overall maintenance profile of a cold room.
The Standard Operating Procedure
Being consistent amongst the market leaders in cold room maintenance, the onus is directly on us to ensure that we set certain specific benchmarks in terms of creating a holistic maintenance timetable for cold rooms.
Check Refrigerant Levels: This is one of the primary determinants of cold room efficiency. Monitor the temperature of the cold room and make sure that the refrigerant is nowhere below the desired level for optimum functioning.
Check Refrigeration: Regular check up of any monitorable like potential oil leakage, Freon levels in each system, ice formation in the evaporator and pressure levels are all very important.
Improving Efficiency: Regular maintenance can help achieve this by ensuring that the condenser coil fins are clean, reverse blowing is working at optimum levels and overall functioning at optimum levels.
Cleaning Defrost Valves: It is absolutely important to pay attention to the defrosting valve and keeping it clean under all circumstances. It is the only way that efficiency levels can be improved simultaneously.
Perform Mock Test: Given our wide experience in trouble shooting and knowing how reliable and electric circuit is, it becomes absolutely necessary to ensure that regular tests and drills are conducted in a way that no problem goes undetected for too long and as common wisdom goes, the sooner you identify a problem, the faster we get the problem solved and lesser the money loss.
Check Cold Room Doors: Often you must have noticed that despite the vital statistics being proper, the cold room might not be functioning at desired levels. The problem might be with the door. There is a chance that for whatever reason if it does not close properly, it could interfere with the cooling. Therefore, this too is part of the regular check-up schedule.
Pump Maintenance: Cold room includes both warm double and cold pumps. They help remove the unnecessary heat and let the cold room remain at the desired temperature. The pressure and the temperature settings are primary requisites for their proper functioning.
Why do you need To Get In Touch With Us?

A U.S. government lawyer has conceded that tens of thousands of long-missing emails belonging to former IRS official Lois Lerner, messages the Obama administration had claimed were lost in a 2011 computer crash, were safely backed up along with the computer records of every other federal employee.
Despite IRS officials' sworn testimony and affidavits to the contrary, a DOJ attorney has learned there is a backup system where Lois Lerner's emails are stored and in tact.
The documents are key to a congressional investigation into a political targeting scheme Lerner allegedly masterminded, which involved singling out conservative nonprofits for especially intrusive scrutiny – based on words in their names like 'tea party' or 'patriots' – when they applied for tax-exempt charitable status.
Judicial Watch's Tom Fitton explained on Fox News this afternoon:
A Department of Justice attorney told a Judicial Watch attorney on Friday that it turns out the federal government backs up all computer records in case something terrible happens in Washington and there's a catastrophe, so the government can continue operating. And they say it would be too hard to go get Lois Lerner's emails from that backup system.
So everything we've been hearing about scratched hard drives…it's all been a pack of malarkey. They could get these records, but they don't want to.
And there's no such thing as Lois Lerner's missing emails. It's all been a big lie. They've been lying to the courts, to the American people, to Congress. It's outrageous.
Mr. Fitton goes on to say, "The Obama administration needs to get on the ball and start retrieving them [the emails], as opposed to stonewalling and continuing to obstruct justice."
Judicial Watch will be asking the Court for relief on this issue, likely in the form of a court order to produce the emails from the backup system.

Whether you love him or hate him, the reality is that Glenn Beck does his homework. And the homework he has done on George Soros is truly frightening. To see the documented participation this "Sith lord" has had in the destruction of four (4)[...yes, that's right, 4!!!] world currencies, is a harbinger of what's coming for the U.S. dollar.
Dismiss this research as conspiracy theory at your own peril...you have been warned and I only reiterate to "do your own research...know why you believe what you believe" not because someone else tells you so.
I didn't fully understand why Glenn was using a Star Wars reference when talking about George Soros, but then I did a little research on my own. Turns out that "Sith Lord" was a title that was conferred on a powerful master of Sith knowledge. Before Darth Bane established the Rule of Two, The Brotherhood of Darkness made all force-sensitive members Sith after training them, to make the members believe themselves to be equal. (hhmmm...everyone equal, redistribution of wealth...heard that before) This strategy was created to prevent the Sith from killing each other, which is the natural order of the dark side of the force, thus violating the natural order. Bane saw this and cleansed the order by killing all of the order and created the Rule of Two; two Sith, one master to embody the power and one to crave it.
If you understand that the current path we're on all starts with George Soros. Once you know George Soros, you really don't need to go much further and the Star Wars analogy to the Sith Order makes total sense. George Soros is the guy who started Center For American Progress. Center For American Progress is the group funded by George Soros that selected John Podesta, and John Podesta selected the Obama Administration and the current White House team. This is where Van Jones went back, to the Center For American Progress. Just do a little reading on the research Glenn has put together on George Soros and his investment in Petrobras.

To be fair, you also need to read the left perspective and how they respond to Glenn Beck. Read this story called "Progressive Hunter" to understand more about the opposition to Glenn Beck.
In an incredibly insightful piece laid out below, Ton Coumans lays a well constructed argument that supports the possibility of the coming destruction of the dollar. Instead of denying that this could even be a possibility, that just gives power to those who don't want you asking the right questions or being prepared for what they've already put in motion. The right questions are more like, "what does someone like George Soros have to gain by the destruction of the dollar?" or "what is it that the Obama Administration really believes they are accomplishing?" When you start thinking like the people in power (who could care less about the Constitution and America), then you reframe the questions and the answers (previously unthinkable to you and I) beging to make sense.
Author Dinesh D'Souza has a new book out entitled The Roots of Obama's Rage. In brief, the book is about Barack Obama's youth and formative experiences that ideologically made him the man he is today. Obama has been the most successful Leftist since President Lyndon Johnson, and maybe FDR, in pushing a radical agenda of socialist encroachment on the American way of life. Instead of denying the reality of what is happening all around us, if you start to ask the question, "what does he believe he's accomplishing with all this?" then you start to get to a frame of reference where from Obama's perspective everything has a purpose. Obama definitely rejects the American dream and the American way of life, but that statement doesn't make sense to Patriotic Americans unless you try and understand why that is the case. Obama has done little or nothing to advance a color-blind society, but rather seems obsessed on some level with skin color and is fanning the flames of racism instead of contributing to solutions. If you understand WHY Obama needs this controversy to continue, then you begin to understand why all these pieces are starting to make sense - only from his perspective.
1914 All Over Again?
By Ton Coumans
I am not one for art, statues or monuments. Most of these objects fail to touch me but every now and then I bump into something that sticks in my mind. Last summer I was drawn to the monument in the picture below, which stands on a square in Nevers - a beautiful city on the river Loire in France. I spent quite a long time studying it and I eventually took some pictures that, for some reason, I regularly review at home.
You will have recognized that this is a monument commemorating the tribulations of the First World War. There is a lot of symbolism in the statue but it is the French soldier's sorrowful stare that won't let me go. What trauma has he lived through? France eventually battled its way to an armistice (not victory) in 1918 after having incurred 1.7 million dead (one in 28 of the population) and over 4 million wounded. Everyone will see something different, but for me this monument is whispering; my God, what have we done?
The uncanny thing is that before the outbreak of World War I, most Europeans expected the future to provide an endless stream of good fortunes, to the point of being bored by the prospect. In fact many soldiers such as the one represented by the statue, just four years earlier, were swept up by the bizarre spirit of 1914 that took hold of the peoples of Europe.
The "Spirit of 1914" which seems to have infected the passions of most of the European populations is described as a reckless urge for adventurism under the flag of nationalism. Young men in all countries volunteered to leave their prosperous lives behind and take up a fight with their European neighbors. It is difficult to comprehend the spirit of 1914. All those men lusting for adventure and the glory of battle and no one was sensing danger.
There were only a handful of people, too few to sway the opinion, that realized what lay ahead. A useless and long-forgotten quote by one of them reads: "If the scientific nations of Europe were to wage war on one another they would be thoroughly sick of it before it was finished". That quote is by Sir Winston Churchill who at the time was 37 years old and First Lord of the Admiralty. He had seen the power of artillery and machine guns in the Sudan and the Boer War and repeatedly warned against armed conflict in Europe, to no avail.
Europe had been at peace for 40 years and the millions of men that charged off to battle had no way of being able to imagine what war would be like, until they found themselves mugged by reality and stuck in the horrors of trench warfare "In Flanders Fields". That was obviously not where they had wanted the free market to take them, as Bill Bonner might assess. Nemesis, the Goddess of divine retribution, had finally found a way to sink her teeth into Europe, having waited patiently in the background during the 40 years of the Belle Epoch.
The question now is, do we stand at a similar point in history where we expect the future to provide expanding, effortless wealth, and have we been swept up by the spirit of 2006; flipping houses and living high on mortgage equity withdraws and debt? Does Nemesis have a special surprise for us and what could that be? We are in a global de- leveraging process, which is painful, but is it, in itself, truly destructive? I contend that if we are to "fall deep" there will need to be some kind of major breakdown of cooperation or even "conflict amongst peoples" resulting in a major lose-lose event that sinks the physical economy. What could that be?
In the run up to WWI, an influential book was written by General Von Bernhardi titled Germany and the next War. The book manifests Germany's frustration and militancy. Von Bernhardi proclaims that, with her scientific and intellectual achievements, Germany should have a more prominent role in world affairs, more colonial trophies with access to petroleum reserves. Germany's GDP had passed that of Great Britain and France and they now wanted more respect. France and Great Britain were maneuvering as best they could to keep Germany (a perceived threat) out of the game. Bernhardi's book also argues that war was not only a justifiable means to achieve that goal but even an obligation of Germany's leadership.
And now in 2009 we witness the wide distribution of a book titled Unhappy China, which expresses China's frustrations with their current position. The similarity in tone is uncanny. China is on its way to become the second economy of the world, yet China is not "embraced" as a member of the G8 and has almost no influence in the IMF and World Bank. China is frustrated with the West's meddling in internal affairs and with the humiliation endured by the Olympic torch run that was, in their perception, disgraced by demonstrations.
All the maneuvering by the West now is to keep China out of the game and treat them as a potential threat. Does this have automatic conflict baked into it? All out "kinetic" war does not seem realistic and more something of the past century. We have since organized the UN Security Counsel to regulate conflicts involving the use of force. But do we have adequate global institutions for monetary policy? I judge that today every government and their symbiotic Central Bank feels they have the right and obligation to use monetary policy to the advantage of their own short-sighted wealth preservation and power games. Could the conflict of the twenty-first century revolve around currency wars? Should we rephrase Churchill's warning to state, "If the financially developed nations of the world were to wage a war of competitive currency devaluation on one another, they would be thoroughly sick of it before it was finished". Could competitive currency devaluation be the bear market surprise mechanism that pits countries and peoples against one another?
The First World War is remembered for the senseless slaughter of trench warfare. Will this period be remembered for disruptive impoverishment of currency warfare? It does seem to have the potential to breed distrust and breakdown cooperation between the nations. It also has a runaway nature since it invites tit for tat exchanges. It is inherently instable because the currency that moves first and fast could have the advantage. But does it have the destructive power to sink our global physical economy? Let's hope that some years from now we will not find ourselves sorrowfully staring at the horizon and whispering; my God, what have we done.

La Mancha is the largest wine region in Spain, producing around 100 million liters of wine each year.
The vineyards are located on a plateau in 500 to 700 m altitude. The climate is continental, very cold in winter, hot and dry in summer. Thanks to these climatic conditions, fungal diseases of the vine rarely occur. Organic winegrowing can be run with less risk here than in wine growing regions with more humidity.
The often very large contiguous and flat vineyards can mostly be processed inexpensively with machines.
For this reason, our organic wines from La Mancha have a very good price / quality ratio.
Mundo de Yuntero, Bodegas Yuntero, pure organic red wine, from € 4,50Product no.: 2050
This organic wine is not a grand cru, but honest, tasty and pure. Order it as your "house wine".

Joe's Pub
One of our key partnerships that we have cultivated is with the historic Joe's Pub. MTF programs a series of monthly concerts that provide a platform for our artists in a world renowned venue. This year, we programmed Cheeyang Ng, who showcased his work with an all Asian crew of cast and musicians from at least 5 distinct asian cultures – dismantling, through story in song, the harmful idea of the asian monolith. Diana Oh, who was able to workshop material for her latest work, Clairvoyance, that went on to premiere at ART in Boston. The Lobbyists premiered material from their latest work, The Golden Spike, which was just selected by Rhinebeck Writers Retreat. Most recently we produced (IN)Visibility, a concert celebrating Transgender Visibility Day featuring all transgender actors and musicians performing work by transgender composers, including Éamon Boylan, Graham KG Garlinton, Orion S. Johnstone, Mika Kaufman, Dana Aliya Levinson, and Will Shishmanian. Our Joe's Pub series has afforded us the ability to give countless artists who are creating radical, inclusive, intentional new work the platform for their professional NYC debuts and help them to gain to visibility in the field.
