Modern age is the age of science and technology. The world of today is very dynamic. The life of man in the primitive age was altogether different from his life in this sputnik age.
There have been tremendous changes in the life style of human beings which may be attributed to the contribution of science and technology, science has extended the frontiers of our knowledge in various ways and directions. Science is considered to be a blessing to mankind. Nothing better has happened than the advent of science in man's life. The contribution of science and technology has been experienced in almost all the spheres of human life including education. Before understanding the meaning of educational technology it is essential to know the meaning of technology. The word 'technology' has been taken from the Greek word (techniques) which means an art and which is related with skill and dexterity. The term 'technology' implies the application of science to art. The concept of technology has developed during the last few years. It is a new area in the discipline of education. Educational technology is comprised of two words education and technology. When we apply the science of learning and communication to teaching we evolve a technology. There are three major factors that emphasize the linking of education with technology.
(i) Explosion of population.
(ii) Explosion of new knowledge.
(iii) Explosion of scientific and technological development.
Educational Technology is concerned with the development, application, and evaluation of system, techniques and aids to improve the process of human learning.
It could be conceived as a science of techniques, methods and media by which educational goals could be realised.
Generally the term "Technology" denotes the systematic application of the knowledge of science to practical tasks in industry. Hence, "Educational Technology" may be roughly defined as the systematic application of the knowledge of sciences to practical tasks in Education.
It is not primarily concerned with the task of prescribing the goal although it does help in specifying the goals and translating them in behavioral terms.
It is a communication process resulting from the adaptation of the scientific method to the behavioral science of teaching/learning. Educational Technology widely accepted as the application of system approach in the systematic design of a learning system to bring about improvement in teaching-learning evaluation process.
It is not an end in itself but a means to accomplish some educational and instructional objectives already determined and clearly defined. It tries to make the whole teaching-learning process more and more meaningful for both the teachers and the learners.
It modifies teacher's method of teaching and learner's behaviour for their own betterment and for the betterment of the mankind. It is not the same thing as...

Hey All,
As the Winter season draws to an end and the back Country season opens up, its a good time to reflect on what has happened and to also look forward with anticipation, of whats to come.
We certainly didn't get the massive runs that some anticipated, to make up for the (sometimes) total emptiness the rivers have provided us with, over Winter. For me the 2014 season will be remembered for a lack of trout. Condition wise they were ok, nothing flash, just ok. I picked up some beauties and have seen plenty of anglers with great conditioned trout, at times. However at other times the trout were below average on the condition factor as well. I think overall the trout in the lake are finding sufficient food. I will mark 2014 down in my memory banks as in three years time we might suffer the same issue with numbers and identifying a pattern like that is important. We probably still have a few runs left in us for this season and so watch the rain gauges and hit the rivers at the correct time, to maximize your chances.
The boaties are having a blast on the lake when they can get out. I have had several reports over the last month of really good conditioned trout being caught and plenty of them to boot. That is promising for the fishery as a whole.
I am pleased to see that the trout I am pulling from the back country rivers are in very good condition for this time of year. Sometimes, when they have had a hard Winter, the condition is below par at this time of year. The fact we had a mild Winter rain wise, has meant the trout have not been beaten around and the extra food they have managed to eat has kept them in fairly good nick. If you catch a fish now that is 4 pound you can guarantee it will be six by the end of summer, if we get the hatches. On a warm day with little wind I am seeing trout take off the surface and they are certainly rising off the bottom to take mid water. It wont be long before they are slurping bugs off the surface. Both the Winged Reaper and Blue Raptor under a Black Bodied Reaper has taken trout in all the rivers I have looked at so far. I am leaning more and more on the Raptor especially as the day warms up and more bugs appear. I may as well give this old boy a plug. I fished with Brett Cameron from CPF Flyfishing the other day. We have both fished the river we chose, for many years, but never together. It was a great day, full of laughs and great trout like the one Brett is holding. I fully recommend Brett as a guide, he will look after you well.
Some of the rivers like the Whakapapa have been smashed by anglers, with up to 6 cars in the parks at all access points. this sort of pressure certainly puts the trout down. At the moment I am fishing smaller streams where casting is not an issue and water levels are not being a problem. You would not believe the size of some of these fish taken in small streams. I am really looking forward to a good season this year and will hopefully be able to give you plenty to read about and look at.

(Updates with official closing numbers, comments, details)
TORONTO, Dec 13 (Reuters) - The Toronto Stock Exchange's main index ended lower on Thursday as weak gold and base metals issues kept the market from keeping pace with late-rallying U.S. stocks.
Stocks fell early as investors took a cautious view of a plan by central banks to inject liquidity into global money markets.
But the early losses, led by financials, were partly recouped late in the session, leaving resource-related issues to hold the broader index back.
"With oil being down and gold being down quite a bit, we didn't really have much of a chance to participate in that rally," said John Kinsey, portfolio manager at Caldwell Securities.
The S&P/TSX composite index fell 62.13 points, or 0.45 percent, to close at 13,747.25.
Seven of the ten TSX subgroups finished lower, led by a 2.8 percent drop among materials issues, which include gold and base metals miners.
Barrick Gold (ABX.TO), the world's No. 1 gold miner, fell C$1.54, or 3.8 percent, to C$38.85, yanked down by gold prices that fell to around $791 an ounce from $814.
Thompson Creek Metals TCM.TO was the mining sector's biggest decliner, falling C$1.87, or 9.9 percent, to C$17.08, after the molybdenum producer cut its production outlook for the second time in two months.
Also taking heavy losses was printer Quebecor World IQW.TO, after the company said shareholders of Dutch group Roto Smeets de Boer RSDB.AS had rejected the $341 million purchase of Quebecor's European business.
The stock dropped 38 Canadian cents, or 16.8 percent, to C$1.88.
Investors appeared to have difficulty making up their minds on a plan, announced on Wednesday, that would see central banks in North America and Europe pump more money into struggling credit markets to ease a lending crisis sparked by the U.S. subprime mortgage meltdown.
Kinsey said the large intraday swings that have been common in recent weeks would not likely end any time soon.
"It will go up, it will go down, but nobody can make up their mind," he said. "This credit thing won't go away, and we're just going to have to live with it for a while."

Nearly anyone who has checked luggage for a flight has found that slip of paper in their suitcase.
It's a message from the Transportation Security Administration saying someone had opened the bag as part of a security check.
For New York Giants defensive lineman, A.J. Francis, the message appeared in his suitcase he opened after he arrived home after attending a celebration of life for his mother, who died in June.
One problem: the urn carrying his mom's remains wasn't closed and her ashes were spilled in the suitcase.

Francis unloaded on TSA on Twitter. On Monday, he tweeted a photo of the suitcase and wrote: "Hey you ... at @TSA next time you ... feel the need to go thru my mother's ashes for no reason, make sure you close it back so her remains aren't spilled on all my clothes ... the least you pieces of garbage can do is your ... job"
Quick note: the ellipses are used in places where Francis had curse words. Normally, I would embed the tweet here, but for that reason I can't. Here is a link to it.
AskTSA responded: "We're very sorry to hear about this. We understand the emotional stress travelers are under when transporting the remains of a loved one. Our policies and procedures focus on ensuring that all passengers are treated with dignity, respect and courtesy.
"Our officers are trained to handle your carry-on and checked property with care. Out of respect for the deceased, under no circumstances should the container be opened. Please accept our apologies and our condolences."
Francis, uh, rejected the apology.
He later tweeted: "The craziest part of this ... is that I dont even care that they checked it... they were just being cautious, & I can understand that. But to not ensure that it won't spill back into my bag after you put it back in is the most asinine & irresponsible (thing) I have ever seen."
TSA responded to that tweet with this message: "We want to look further into this. Please let us know which airport you traveled through, as well as the airline and flight information."
On Tuesday, TSA spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein told the Washington Post that video footage of the inspection showed that agents were unaware that the container had cremated remains. Oh, and they weren't responsible for the spill either.
"Video review of the screening of Mr. Francis' checked bag at Los Angeles International Airport shows that it alarmed for an unidentified object," Farbstein told The Post. "A TSA officer discovered the unidentified object was an opened, unmarked ceramic container, wrapped in tin foil inside a small bag. Upon further inspection of the checked bag, the container was loosely packaged, unmarked and the contents unknown to the TSA officer.
"The TSA officer completed screening of the checked bag, clearing it to continue to its destination. The container was carefully repacked and placed in the bag."
Francis, who played for Washington a year ago, wasn't buying it.
On Tuesday, he tweeted the photo again and wrote: " 'Carefully repackaged' but there were no remains in the suitcase when I opened it on camera at my Bag check... then I open it at home, open my suitcase and take this picture. I'm over this."

September 22, 2014
I made it.
I'm not gonna lie, it's depressing. Holy cow is it depressing.
But I look back, which was the point of another blog I started and won't link to, and I realize I have nothing to be depressed about. My 20s were fun, and I'm glad I got them over with. My 20s made me learn things about myself, and made me face myself. I'm not perfect, and I'm done aiming for that. I'm me, and I want to find something that makes me happy. I want to find someone that makes me happy. I want to be somewhere that makes me happy. And, hopefully, I'll make those things/person(s) happy as well. That doesn't mean bigamy, that means supervisors.
I'm clueless on what I was doing when I turned 20. Probably drinking, and looking for ways to drink. While I still have yet to find ways to meet people I'm interested in, I'm done doing it through the drinking route. Drinking is just headaches and a waste of money. Drinking goes in me and in the toilet, one way or another.
At 20, sure, I would have been disappointed where I am at 30. I would have liked to know what I know now back then, but would I be the same person? The heartbreak, the disappointment, the hours earning peanuts doing what I don't like? The only way to truly learn that is to experience it. Knowing it at 20 may have meant something, but I probably would have brushed it off. Like I still do with others' advice at 30.
However, what would the 20 year old me think about playing Roy Orbison songs on the ukulele? What would the 20 year old me think about having my own place? What would the 20 year old me think about giving up drinking?
What would the 20 year old me think about my confidence? What would the 20 year old me think about New Age music? What would the 20 year old me think about staying in on Friday night?
I once wanted to make a blog called 'staying in on Friday night' but it was about music.
You see, the 30 year old me has gone through stuff that the 20 year old me would never survive. But in turn, I'm happy with who I am. I've learned from the experiences. I've gained confidence in my abilities and what I have to offer. The 20 year old me was convinced the future was brighter, but that was because I was imaging myself making movies and falling in love. The 30 year old me knows the future is brighter, because I've overcome obstacles. I will be able to in the future as well. It won't be easy, but this ukulele playing, movie buff, outdoorsy nerd will be there too. Stressful day? Fresh air and a walk will make me feel better. Busy week? Watch an old favorite film Saturday night. Need to vent? Pick up the uke and rhyme "boss" with…"DOS"?
I've become more realistic. Which is a bit of a letdown. Dream jobs are just that, because you don't work to have a dream. Though, sometimes you need to exercise your memory to remember them. I would still love to make a movie with friends, and my creativity is through the roof; relatively speaking. The ceiling in my apartment is kinda low afterall…
But this is what I do now. I reflect with a smile. I look forward, knowing it won't be easy, but also knowing it will be worth it.
My latest favorite movie is Begin Again. And there's a wonderful line where Mark Ruffalo explains that life is a string and pearls, but the pearls get fewer and fewer as you get older.
This entire weekend was a pearl. I'll wait for the next one, when it comes.
Toast & Tea
May 27, 2012
Wow, I never realized how much that sounds like (or at least rhymes with) the 'new' Death Cab album…
Well, I made it. Practically three years in the making, since I had it that one fateful morning at my parents' house.
I have that job. Well, kinda. I have my apartment. I have some weekends off, but definitely have Sundays off.
However, there are new stipulations. Such as an oven that I should clean, and a smoke detector that is very sensetive.
But I had it. Toast and tea, the way life should be.
May 18, 2012
May has always been an interesting month for me. For starters, it's my mother's name. Um, pretend I didn't write that…
For most students, May is one month before summer break which also means finals or regents testing depending on your state. As a college student, May means finals – and graduation. In fact, five years ago to the date I graduated from college!
While I can't say what has happened to me every May since college – like I think I can with November cause of pretty girls – May has definitely been up with Novemeber as a meaningful month in my life.
As I said, I graduated college in May. Last year, I swore I was in love with someone (which reminds me – what a terrible idea that was!). But what that really meant to me in the long run is that I can love. Usually I'm as exciting as a blank book cover. Only when I'm falling and my innards are flapping was my life exciting. But having the ability to love is something I never saw in myself – until last year.
This May, I am continuing on with my never ending growing, never ending learning, and never ending changing. I got a Full Time spot at a bank. Which on the surface isn't much – I didn't go to school for accounting or anything. BUT, it also means that I can finally leave my high school job. Which definitely was the most exciting thing as of late.
And I can look at this two ways. There goes a good chunk of my life that made me who I am – good, bad and indifferent. Or, I can look at it as a chance to look towards the future. The moment I left I should've done this, I could've done that.
But also, the moment I left, I was ready to start the next chapter of my life. There will be challanges, and there will be problems to face. But I can finally wake up in my apartment on a Sunday, drink tea and eat toast. Cause that was what I've been wanting to do for a long, long time.
The question isn't if the reward of toast is worth the challanges. It is if I'm up for the challanges. And the answer had better be yes – cause if I'm not, I'm losing this apartment, that toast, and that tea.

Do You Believe in Rapture Babe?
May 19, 2011
So, the Rapture is supposed to happen in two days or something? Oh well, I can accept being wrong. It has happened before. Maybe I can accept my fate.
Moving on, I'm back to this blog! I doubt that I'll keep it going. I like where I left it off, a little circle of "No Pun Intended" ending both the first and (previously) last entry. If I do it again will it be intentional and lose its magic? Or will it even matter? If the Rapture is the 21st, it won't!
But I came a nice full circle today. Hopes and daydreams clouded my mind, only to not come true. Plans came up to ruin future daydreams – you know, as if the current ones are happening… Work was pretty dull. Maybe the world ending isn't that bad.
But in the down time at my job, a joke is made, and I smile. Everyone smiles. In my down time, I write a basic outline for a story. Just like I did last Saturday, except that was a song. Oh, and the story was on a caffeine rush, ALTHOUGH the idea was in my head for a while (the song wasn't on a rush either). And it hits me. No, not a buncha kids throwing rocks but a realization. HANK IS CREATIVE. I haven't lost it. And despite my daydreams not coming true but still clouding my mind, I can still write. I can still imagine. How many 26 year olds still do that?
So, no, things aren't how I want them to be. But perhaps things are how I need them to be. And let's face it, I may have two jobs that drag me down, but I have time to myself to go to Panera and throw away my paycheck. I got an apple this time though!
So is the Rapture supposed to come soon? I doubt I can talk God out of doing it(you know, if He's up there), but that's besides the point. I am alive. I can do things I want. Let me enjoy the moment – cause one day I won't be here, or this won't be here.
2001: A Takk… Odessey
December 1, 2010
I found the synch I've been looking for ever since I watched 2001.
I'm also drunk right now, so maybe the synch isn't actually there. Orange soda and rum – yum!!!
Happy December!!!
Giving thanks?
November 24, 2010
I'll take it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOgpT5rEKIU
So, here we are again, this time of year. The Holidays. Thanksgiving is tomorrow, Christmas in just over a month away, and New Years will be here a week later. We only have maybe, 5 full weeks left of this year!
But time is a personal matter. What you do with it is up to you. You can be selfish, and realize that 5 weeks isn't much time to get a lot done. Or you can realize that 5 weeks is a good amount of time to change, even if it is only for the holidays. It really bugs me, that we have friends and family over only for the holidays, and not any other days. The same with gifts and things – I realize if we gave someone a $1 gift each day we'd have to shill out $365 on one person each year. But is that really a lot? Okay, it is, cause I don't even think my totals for Christmas gifts is even near $365.
But I need to realize, and probably some of you do too, that my friends are my true gifts. My family is, although I like the one saying, you can pick your friends but you can't pick your family. And I should realize that I have a lot that my friends like. That may sound selfish, and it is a selfish point of view, but that isn't what I mean. It's that I should enjoy what I have as much as my friends do, as they should do with themselves. I realize that my friends don't vent to me their personal problems, and vise-versa (mostly), and those problems can bog down the things I have that I'm good at. But I'm happy with who I am, and what I have. Both possession wise and mutual wise.
So don't worry about getting that one last thing you want right now. It's time to reflect on the year it's been, and good times shared this past year. And remind them too, when you see them over the holidays.

I need to clean my windows. I just looked at the sliding door to our backyard and realized that it is desperately calling for help. There are finger prints, snot smears and slobber marks on that poor sliding door.
It never ends does it? The brain of a mommy is constantly thinking and remembering all the things that need to get done. And at the worst times too. I'm just trying to get out a nice little blog post and enjoy my coffee but all I can think about is that darn door. Seriously why am I not Mary Poppins? Why can't I just snap and get things done? Life would be soooo much easier. I could just snap, clean the wind, and get back to my blogging. But alas I can not. So I'll be right back. Hold on.
Ok I'm back and the window is no longer bothering me. At this point I'm sure that you're convinced I've been breathing in too many windex fumes. It's possible. Or I'm just exhausted. A good exhaustion though. This weekend was full of adventures and surprises that kept the Starbuck family on their toes.
Saturday we drove to Phoenix for a bridal shower. I was honored to be hosting this party for one of my best friends. Krista and I met in college and have been friends ever since.
The shower went really well! I'll have more pictures and details later this week. It was so much fun to put together.
While I was at the shower my husband and the boys were picking up my brother from the airport. If you haven't read his post on his trip to Calcutta you need to do that! So proud of my little bro.
Then we all met up for the Saturday night vigil Mass at St. Theresa's. This was the parish where I made my first communion. So it was really special getting to attend Mass there on the feast of Corpus Christi. After Mass, Thomas and I caught up with Fr. Chuck who has been at that parish for 23 years. He totally remembered us! It was great getting to chat with him for a little. Then I obviously had to recreate my First Communion picture haha.
WIWS with Fine Linen and Purple <3
Shoes//H&M, Skirt//Gypse Threads, Pineapple Tank//Old Navy, Sweater//Old, Necklace// Bohme
Peter came up next to me and tried to imitate my First Communion picture too haha.
Then after Mass I met back up with the bride for her bachelorette party.
While I was at the bachelorette party, Andrew and my brother took the boys out for pizza at a place called Hob Nobs.
They both could not stop talking about this orange blossom beer that they had. Andrew and Thomas highly recommend it if you're ever in Phoenix.
Then on Sunday we returned to Tucson and enjoyed steaks and swimming at my parents house.
And now we are recovering from all the fun. That means lots of coffee, several episodes of Veggie Tales and naps.

Old family vacation photos may seem boring to some, but I find them to be interesting clues to a family's location, leisure activities, and socio-economic status. Many families, including my own, worked long, hard hours with little time to spare for lengthy, expensive trips far away from home. While tracing one branch of my family's movements in the first half of the 20th century, I began to take a closer look at the dates and locations on the backs of the pictures for clues. Of course, several photos had nothing, but many had a stamp from the developer or a handwritten notation.
In my grandmother's things was a series of photos taken at Indian Springs State Park in Flovilla, GA. The series features grainy shots of my grandmother with her daughter, grandchildren, and a niece. The pictures of the relatives are not that spectacular; their faces are barely recognizable. If it weren't for the comments on the back, it would be hard to tell who's who. What is interesting to me is that the July 1949 date corresponds with oral stories of the family being in the Atlanta area at the time. A short trip with "the kids" to the cool spring waters of a nearby state park makes sense because it puts the family in that area in time, doing a low-budget but enjoyable activity.
My favorite snapshot is the old mill, taken in July 1949:
I love the quirky messages on the backs of old photos. Here is the back of the photo above, in what appears to be my grandmother's handwriting:
Not only do I have another clue about the family's location in 1949, I also hear my grandmother's voice in the tongue-in-cheek comment about the water wheel not turning. Sometimes it's good to just enjoy the hunt for clues and the surprises that come along. The genealogical proof standards and citation-writing can wait for another day.

Don't tell Bostonians that Boston may be ousted by New York City again. The Boston Herald reports that Boston's very own infamous criminal Charles Ponzi could have his famed "Ponzi scheme" phrase replaced by a new king of fraud: New York's very own Bernie Madoff.
While Charles Ponzi's scheme was the very first of its kind in the 1920s, Irving Picard told Fraud Magazine that Bernie Madoff's fraud will overshadow this type of fraud and eventually replace the term "Ponzi scheme."

Nathan Lyon has been recalled by Australia for next month's one-day series against England.
Lyon won the last of his 14 white-ball caps nearly two years ago but returns to favour following the 4-1 thrashing by England in January. There were calls for the 30-year-old's return during that series on the back of his strong performances in The Ashes.
He last played for Australia in a one-day international against Sri Lanka in Colombo in 2016 but returns to a 15-man squad, that will be led by Tim Paine in the absence of Steve Smith and David Warner, at an opportune time.
"Nathan is our number one off-spinner and has excelled with the red ball. However, he is not new to white ball cricket and deserves his chance to push for World Cup selection," said Australia's chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns.
"England potentially have a number of left-handers in their side and we look forward to seeing what he can produce with the white-ball in English conditions."
Two other members of last winter's Ashes attack, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, remain on the sidelines due to injury.
Australia physio David Beakley said: "Mitchell is going to undertake a prolonged rehabilitation period for his tibial bone stress injury and we are aiming for a return to play for the Pakistan Test Series in the UAE.
"Pat is still recovering from a lumbar bone stress injury. The good news is that it has not progressed to a fracture but he still requires a period of rehabilitation with an aim for him to return to play for the Pakistan Test series along with Starc."
Australia are 2.75 to win the 2019 Ashes series outright while England can be backed at 1.80.

Working capital management practices and profitability of AIM listed SMEs
Afrifa, G. (2015) Working capital management practices and profitability of AIM listed SMEs. Journal of Enterprising Culture, 23 (1). pp. 1-23. ISSN 0218-4958.

This paper reports the results of an investigation of the effect of Working Capital Management (WCM) practices on profitability of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM), from the perspective of financial directors. Specifically, I look at their WCM target level practices, WCM alteration frequency and WCM strategy practices. The analyses are based on questionnaire distributed to 248 AIM listed SMEs. The paper employs OLS regression on responses from 72 managers of AIM listed SMEs. The results show that the WCM practices of AIM listed SMEs managers have an effect on profitability. However, the results show that given the limited resources of SMEs, the main focus of managers should be on the setting of specific target level for WCM so as to increase profitability.

CINCINNATI (MarketWatch) - With Monday's gains, the Dow industrials have rallied within 20 points of the 12,000 level.
Still, the more significant technical story has little to do with large, headline-grabbing numbers.
In a nutshell, recent strength has come on strong volume and bullish internals, with the small- and mid-cap benchmarks - which have lagged horribly since mid-August - finally coming to life.

The Ministry of Justice has published Friday evening on the institution site, after the HG. 410 from 9 June 2017, relating to the declassification of SIPA archive appeared in the Official Monitor, two reports and an annex for one of them. Specifically, Minister Tudorel Toader has declassified and made public the 096 Report regarding the activity of the Commission made by OMJ no. 1.348/C from 31 may 2007, modified by OMJ no. 1489/C from 11.06.2007, which appeared exclusively in the Evenimentul zilei, but also the 0097 Report regarding the Commission's activity made by OMJ 2418/C on 24 September 2007, and also the minute 087 from 10.04.2008 at the headquarters of the National Administration of Penitentiaries.
Pruna was playing classification
The first thing that needs to be explained is that the Commission's Chiuariu-Predoiu Report from 2008 was at the level of secret service until 2016, when it was passed in a higher class, being stamped with SECRET.
The Minister of Justice at that time was Raluca Pruna, Monica Macovei's former collaborator, who is suspect in this document. This gesture of Raluca Pruna raises big question marks regarding the compliance with legislation on the classification and preservation of the documents with secret character. Why did the Minister Raluca Pruna felt the need to "bury" even deeper a report which highlighted some possible offences? Declassification of the three documents by the current Minister of Justice Tudorel Toader is the consequence of shocking disclosures made in Evenimentul zilei, by journalist Dan Andronic regarding the SIPA archive. The importance of the facts recorded exclusively by EVZ has been confirmed also by the DIICOT, which has opened an investigation "in rem".
She proposed a HG, and then forgot
As I said, the 096 report's declassification from 2008 highlights yet another shocking information: in 2016, Raluca Prună, former Minister of Justice in the Cioloș Government tried to save her friend Monica Macovei!
In the summer of 2016, Minister Raluca Pruna announced that it takes a regulatory action of major importance for the abolition of SIPA archive. The GD project, she said, responded to the needs mentioned by creating a Commission which, with Celerity, was supposed to inventory the documents from the archive of the DGPA and transmit them according to their specificity, to the competent institutions.
In 27.07.2016, appear in the press the first references to the project thought by Raluca Pruna and her team regarding the SIPA archive. In fact, this was just another way to wander into the SIPA archive, the place where were stored over 5.000 archive units on career and life of hundreds of magistrates, politicians, journalists.
Here's the enlightening fragment from the Government Decision project, which Minister Raluca Pruna wanted to pass in July-August 2016.
"At the Ministry of Justice level was considered necessary to issue a new normative act with the same value, which constitutes the basis for unsealing the archives of the former DGPA, its inventory, accessing documents of interest for litigants and distributing documents, i.e. the documents handover to the competent authorities" reads the draft.
Only instead of proceeding according to the law, Raluca Prună, after seeing the serious facts that Monica Macovei is accused of in the Commission report 096 Chiuariu-Predoiu, she made secret for the second time the document on which former Minister Catalin Predoiu wrote "Secret Service".
Serious mistakes of Minister Pruna
Raluca Prună left the GD project, waved to the press on 27.07.2016, and 18.08.2016 (after 3 weeks) passed the report signed by former Minister Catalin Predoiu at an upper-class grading, applying on the first page of the document the stamp SECRET. In her rush to bury the Report that accuses Macovei, Raluca Prună made several mistakes:
- She only put the stamp SECRET on the document's first page
- Has not given a new number in 18.08.2016, when she secreted again the 096 Report, although the legislation in this respect is crystal clear.
- She didn't noticed the authorized institutions when she took note of the Commission Report of 2008, classified at that time just as the secret service, although it was about very serious Security Incidents and possible offences concerning the national safety law.
- She violated the law because she has not made the classification by a GD.
Will Tudorel Toader notify the Prosecutor?
The current declassification of Minister Tudorel Toader is of major importance, because it shows that the former Minister Raluca Pruna attempted to cover up what did during the period 2005-2006, Minister Monica Macovei, Judge Cristi Danileț, journalist Dan Tapalaga and the rest of their team, who had access and handled top secret documents from the archive of SIPA.
The question now asked is what will further do Minister Tudorel Toader? Will he seize the Prosecutor in case of security incidents related to SIPA archive?
Minister Monica Macovei and Dan Tapalagă. The object of the visit was that of verifying the entry and exit of secret documents of SIPA from the last quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of the following year. Were present at this activity the current head of SIPA Col. Marius Stoian (Ovidiu Ioan Stoian-head of SIPA at the time) and two officers or non-commissioned officers who were responsible for the archive. The Minister and the attendant were requested access documents to classified data (ORNISS certificates), Monica Macovei replied that her being a Minister does not need this, and Dan Tapalagă has not given any reply.
The Minister and her companion stood in the archive until 02.00 at night.
It has not been requested from the SIPA any kind of classified document. They, however, took the input-output register for secret and top secret documents, which means reported person names, very succinctly content, where originated and where it occurred (what beneficiaries have been). At departure (the two) have taken this input-output register that was returned to SIPA after Prosecutor Dobocan took over as director of the service. (...)
Dan Tapalagă acknowledges that he entered illegally in the SIPA ArchiveCitește mai departe ...

A Post By: Michael Gallo
Tomorrow is one of the greatest days of the entire year (behind Arbor day, and North Korean Glorious Super Deluxe Independence From the Horrors of Capitalism Day)! It's the start of the NCAA basketball tournament. Men and women everywhere will ignore basic responsibilities like work and hygiene so they can watch amateur basketball programs fight for eternal glory (or the chance to get blown out in the next round). Who will be the this year's Cinderella? Who will be this year's VCU? There are a lot of questions to answer when you're filling out your bracket. Luckily for you, the Barnyard Lampoon is generous enough to share with you how to best fill out your bracket. Follow our advice, and we GUARANTEE you will win your office pool. In fact, I bet you $60, right now, no questions asked. Fuck! Remember what the counselor said Mike!
After a quick call to 1-800-Betsoff, I'm back. Here are the things you have to remember.
1. If the number next to the school's name is lower than the other school's, they're going to win. Without a doubt. "Upsets" are typically reserved for regular season play. Don't believe me? Look up the last time a 16 seed beat a 1 seed. I'll save you some trouble. It was fucking never. It's never happened. The first round looks like a prison riot in an Alaskan penitentiary, where it's daylight 22 hours out of the day giving you ample time to 'shank' someone in the yard.
-Don't be "that guy" that has Norfolk going the distance. You'll lose the office pool and everyone will think you're an asshole. Now, that being said…
2. This is all fucking luck. Complete luck. There's nothing else to it. A 13 seed could easily upset a 5 seed. Wait…no, a 13 could upset a…carry the two, divide by one…a 4 seed? Fuck, I don't know. Math sucks. In the tournament of life, math is a 16 seed. Who needs it?
3. Ride luck hard. Luck can be a fickle bitch, but sometimes she gives you the hot hand. Trust me, if you bet on these brackets like I do (millions of dollars through the Las Vegas black market gambling scene) then you need a hot hand. My first suggestion is throw out any organized religion you may believe in, and accept pagan gods. That way you can sacrifice a goat on the threshold of your home and get IMMEDIATE results from your new sun god.
4. All right, that just got pretty heavy. I just told you to reject your God. Who am I, Obama?! Haha, but seriously…am I Obama? No, but I'm FUCKING serious…are YOU Obama?! Aren't we all god damn Barack FUCKING Obama?! I don't need your condoms you Muslim, cigarette smoking, Kenyan!!
Whoa. Whoa. I'd like to apologize for what you just read. I said some things, I'm sure you said some things…let's just move past it.
5. Back to the action!
Barnyard Reader: Michael Gallo, how do I select which team is going to win? An upset can occur in almost EVERY match up.
I'm glad you asked. I have a tried and true method for selecting my bracket. It's never failed me.
I time travel.
All right actually it's only failed. While my machine can successfully bend the parameters of space and time, I can't actually select a date. So I've never hit a year more recent than 1876. So essentially I can only travel into the past. Which doesn't help. And I typically get violently ill every time I time travel. Bunch of worm hole shit you guys wouldn't understand.
So when I get back to the present, I typically do one of two things…
Barnyard Disclaimer: The following options are incredibly sadistic, and highly inaccurate.
Option A: I adopt a Wheaten Terrier (which by the way, is the ugliest fucking dog in the world) and typically feed it very little for about 2 and half days. Next, I buy 68 pet store hamsters from Petsmart. Then, I painstakingly spray paint each tournament team name onto the back of each hamster. One hamster, per team. Get it? Next, I take the dog and my hamsters into the basement where my
Japanese Immigrant Fighting Ring exercise cage is located. I start the clock and dump the hamsters into the cage with the dog. Oh, important side note…wear a pancho. No, fuck that, wear two panchos. Cause shit's gonna get everywhere. The dog essentially tears through all 68 hamsters in around 4 minutes and 34 seconds (last year's time, an all time best). I take detailed notes, and record which teams hamster makes it to the end, and survives longer than the other hamster in his bracket. Next, I feed the dog. See, it's still humane. He's just having fun!
Option B: This option is a little less sadistic. With the money I made on last year's tournament, I pay off the governor to pardon 68 prisoners from Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary. Next, I take all 68 prisoners to the soccer field at Leavenworth High School. You see where this is going? Each prisoner gets a teams name spray painted onto his back…are you there yet? Then we give him an orange inside of a long tube sock. Still not there? Then I blow a whistle and watch the prisoners beat the living shit out of each other. Why would they fight like this? Because they don't know they're only fighting for a tournament. They think they're fighting for their freedom! Which is partly true. The last prisoner standing shows me which team will win the whole tourney and…he gets his freedom. It's a win-win.
So there you have it. Hopefully that helps you fill out the best bracket possible. If my dog and prisoner tests are correct…
Then Kentucky is going all the way. You heard it here first folks!

(If you can't stand the truth then don't read this!)
Well folks, we've had to put up with all Camoron's bluff and bluster regarding HIS negotiations with EU supremo's, HIS re-negotiations and even HIS re-re-ngotiations..... all of which have been totally and utterly fruitless: the EU juggernaut of self destruction is refusing to bend and will continue to non-bend. In short they are putting their might against the wants of our (supposed) Prime Minister and the will of our people! To them, we don't matter as a nation. To them, our finances & businesses do! All they want is our wealth, which of course they will keep on wasting until we are all in the same old "EU SS Titanic", doomed to sink just as surely as that super-liner of 1912 did.
Where to start with the plan to stop the self destruction of this once noble country?
Unemployment: (L) 10, 280....... Vacancies: 2,380
(N) 8,970 ...... Vacancies: 1,942
(D) 9,742 ..... Vacancies: 1,893
Now this seems to me that, as per usual, our dearly beloved Government is lying through its back passages to the people once again! Amazingly, in only three (3) Midlands cities we have 28,992 unemployed persons yet there are an incredibly huge amount of 6,215 vacancies! Wowee, that's it folks, economic crisis averted, we're saved! Now expand these figures nationwide!
"The closure of the plant follows chancellor George Osborne's visit to China last week. The steel industry has blamed the dumping of cheap steel from China partly for the near-halving of the price of steel in the past year."
They (Islam) have followed a very clever & duplicitous path for they have amassed hordes in each of the countries they have settled in, asking only for small changes, bit by bit, so as to allow them to reside 'as they would'. It has been a magnificent 'salami slicing' piece of work as they now have Sharia courts in most Western countries, violent activasts & hate preachers in all! The paris shootings should have alerted all that have eyes..... but no, we still have idiots in Westminster who believe that we should assist ISIS by allowing 20,000 migrants into this country 'on humanitarian grounds'! If a mere 2% are Islam fanatics then we have imported 400 complete fruitcakes that believe that if they wipe out 'infidels' (non Islam believers) they will be going to a place where 72 virgins await them! Now I would have thought that with their cult (not religion) believing that it was OK to 'take child brides' from the age of 6yrs upward it simply proved that Islam is nothing more than a satanic, paedophilic cult that has no place in our modernistic Western World-and there certainly won't be 72 virgins left! They have never been a democracy and never will be, especially when statements like this emanate from the lips of those who rule - Iyad Madani, secretary-general of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), has said that "freedom of the press and expression is an important issue as it expresses the heartbeat of citizens and their concerns, but such freedom of expression as a way to offend religions and their symbols, is totally unacceptable." (in other words, freedom of speech is bang ok UNLESS it offends any muslim!
We need a government that has balls (and I don't mean Ed Balls either!), a government that can simply say the the EU monsters in Brussels, "Sorry, but we are no longer interested in watching poverty loom large, we are no longer interested in Schengen which invites terrorism into our country, we are no longer interested in migrants as we haven't got any jobs for them,. We are no longer able to support incoming migrants and the twenty family members that will surely follow."All events related to Christmas and New Year celebrations are contrary to Islamic culture, which could damage aqidah (faith) of the Muslim community. There should be no activity at all."
We have a world renowned NHS which is crumbling at its very foundations because we are giving money away to God only knows how many countries (one of which simply refurbishes its palace!). We are full to bursting point with 65,000,000 people already ensconced on this tiny island. Our welfare system is facing financial ruin because so many people have the audacity to live beyond retirement age (was 65!) - the influx of migrants strains this already overstretched facet to bursting point. We no cannot afford to be giving away £60,000,000 per day to an undemocratic organisation that wouldn't know democracy if it jumped up and smacked them in the face. We certainly don't need to be 'ruled' by a bunch of power crazy lunatics who seem to want to destroy the very fabric of this country as they have a good number on the continent; ie Spain = bankrupt, Italy = bankrupt, Greece = penniless, Portugal = bankrupt, Britain = bankrupt (your gov't just hasn't told the people the truth yet!), Eire = bankrupt, Croatia = bankrupt before/when they entered the EU, France = teetering on the brink of bankruptcy and so on! The latest newspaper poll shows a staggering 91% wanting OUT/LEAVE, so what is the caMORON wasting more time doing?
- Remain 9% 2,450 votes
- Leave 91% 24,122 votes
Can 2016 be a new beginning? Can CaMORON and his Cabinet, Front bench, Back bench & acolytes see the light and get us out of this EU toilet, close the doors on this migration problem and the marauding hordes of women hating (except when they want sex) sub-humans? We don't need the EU to trade for they will trade with us anyway, in fact trade with the EU diminished by 18% last year!
Vote to leave the EU, it is a quagmire of lies & deceits that will, ultimately, totally & utterly bankrupt this country. THEY ONLY WANT GB FOR ITS WEALTH, they always have and nothing is ever going to change that!

I was thinking about my grandmother the other day. She became deaf as a young woman and I always remember her with her hearing aid. It was about the size of a Blackberry and twice as thick. She wore it in a little pocket fixed to a harness that went around her chest. When she didn't want to hear my grandfather talk any longer, she would turn off her hearing aid. This was quite the visual as the off/on switch was in the middle of the hearing aid and she turned it off with an elaborate twist of her hand. I always thought that was such a neat way of signaling, "I'm done with this conversation!"
This memory got me thinking about other memories of hearing loss – some good and others not so much. Just so you know, there will be no ugly list in this post. It just sounded good in the title.
Here are some benefits of hearing loss for me:
I have a mute button on my hearing aid. Before I received my cochlear implant, which unfortunately doesn't have a mute button, I could cut out irritating sounds such as dogs barking, the hammering of new roof shingles in the neighbourhood, and the irritating signal trucks make when they back up. It was lovely to be in my backyard and not hear these sounds. I would also use the mute button when on the subway. I never could understand the instructions over the loud speakers even with my hearing aids and the silence was heavenly!
Because those of us who are deaf lip read, we watch faces closely. We attend to others. This eye contact is a really great way to connect and we do it automatically because we need to see their faces in order to hear what they are saying. As a result people like talking with us.
I give workshops for a living and invariably there is at least one person in the group who wants to speak with me after the session because she either knows someone who is deaf or has some concerns about her own hearing. We all have frailties and life can be made easier when we are allowed to share those frailties with others.
However hearing loss can be a great challenge. In a nutshell, the biggest issue is that we can't hear! So we miss.
I remember when I was about 14 or 15 years old celebrating New Year's Eve with friends of my family. Just at midnight, everyone trouped outside. I went along, not knowing why we were doing this. While we were outside, I noticed that others were exclaiming about something but I couldn't understand them for the most part because it was dark. It wasn't until we were back inside and I asked my mother what that was all about that I found out the church bells were ringing in the New Year. I didn't hear them and missed the experience.
School was a challenge in many ways. Although I had a seat up front and could for the most part understand the teacher until he or she turned away to face the blackboard, I couldn't hear any of the students behind me. I disliked 'reading out loud' the most of all the work we did. I would watch to see when others turned the page so I could at least be in the general vicinity of the book and dreaded my name being called because I did not know where to start.
One of the things I really don't like about being deaf is missing the joke – especially the punch line. Have you ever noticed that when someone is telling a joke, he will lower his voice slightly just as he gets to the punch line? It is for effect and helps draw people in but it is frustrating for those of us who can't hear. And asking to repeat the joke really spoils the party. So I miss.
But back to the good.
My favorite memory of the advantages of being deaf has to be when I was about 7 or 8 years old, the youngest in a family of six. We had a television set that didn't always work and when the sound went, I was called on to lip read. People tended to speak directly to the camera in the early days of television so it was very easy for me to lip read. Talk about power! The red letter day for me was being able to stay up long past my bedtime, lip reading and watching I Love Lucy. What a treat!
Do you have experiences, good or bad, with hearing loss? I would love to hear your stories.

Gatecrash previews are in full swing! We've had some awesome spoilers so far, and have finally been reintroduced to the five remaining guilds. So you're probably either loving or hating this right now.
…why you'd be hating it, I have no idea. But it's the internet. I know your kind. If you haven't found something to like about one of the ten guilds by now…seriously? I think you're playing the wrong game.
We've seen help for control, aggro, midrange, and combo decks through Return to Ravnica, some sleeper hits (*coughPackRatcough*) to keep you guessing, and fancy new mechanics of for each of the guilds. The mechanics have certainly served to add not only interesting gameplay, but also a bit more character to the guilds, allowing for an even more personal touch to guild-alignment and deck-building.
So what's Gatecrash bringing to the table?
Evolve (Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, if that creature has greater power or toughness than this creature, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature.)
Simic's evolve was the first mechanic spoiled, and comes to us from the Great Designer Search 2, actually. Last time we were on Ravnica, Simic used graft – a similar but more confusing ability, I think – so they're sticking with the +1/+1 counters, which totally fits with the guild. Particularly in the case of Fathom Mage, we simultaneously see physical and mental growth, clearly indicative of blue and green.
With evolve, you have the chance to control the board early. To really take advantage of it, getting evolve creatures out early to generate those counters with other less-impressive drops will probably be key. (And remember that it's either power OR toughness that has to be greater than the evolve creature's – so use that to your advantage.) And timing, too. When you play your giant creatures is probably going to depend as much on what else you have in your hand as what your opponent has on the board. I'm gonna guess that the blue here is going to be playing with all those pesky counters (as we've seen on Simic Fluxmage), and irritating the hell out of me, I'm sure.
Overall, seems dangerous, but it's going to require some careful planning. Perfect fit for Simic.
Bloodrush – (Cost), Discard (card): Target attacking creature gets +X/+Y until end of turn. (Where X is card's power, Y is card's toughness. Paraphrasing, of course.)
I was a big fan of R/G early on in my Magic obsession, so I was pretty excited to see what they came up with for Gruul here, and bloodrush didn't disappoint. Different from Gruul's old bloodthirst in mechanics, but not in flavor, bloodrush is brutal. It's about beating your opponent down now now NOW, at the risk of losing something in the future – that sounds pretty red, right? The green of course comes into play when those sacrifices your crazy red side is making directly benefit your creatures, allowing you to stomp all over your opponents with glee. It's a little chaotic, but that's kind of Gruul's thing.
At instant speed and essentially uncounterable, bloodrush is going to let you keep things fast, which is probably ideal if you're going to be dumping creatures constantly. It seems Gruul will allow for some flexibility, letting you decide if you want to go straight for face-smashing, or sit back and get the board where you want it first. It's like green's sensibilities pulls back red's craziness just a bit. Regardless, the combat tricks are sure to frustrate blue – which makes me a happy girl. Lots of action, clear intentions to go for the win, and a love for gigantic creatures. I'll take it.
(Add to this new planeswalker Domri Rade's ultimate and suddenly Gruul's power makes me want to vomit a little.)
Battalion – Whenever (creature) and at least two other creatures attacks, (something crazy happens).
Ugh. This. This is going to be dangerous. W/R is one of those combos I don't play much, but once I do I remember exactly how insane it can be. Battalion feels like it's going to remind me of that more than I'd like it to. I'll take a stab in the dark and say Boros is going to do some token creation to boost this ability, or it'll at least exploit white's natural tendency to crank out soldiers like they're going out of style. (Because obviously what we need is more white soldier decks. Awesome.)
Similar to radiance in that it has that team-player-type feel to it, battalion forces you to depend on numbers if you want to be as powerful as possible. Of course you have to be smart about it; just because you have three creatures doesn't always mean you should attack. If you've only got some 1/1 soldiers, do you attack just to do the extra damage, risking losing all of them and the ability to have battalion trigger next turn? Or do you sit back and wait to have some big-hitters to lead the pack? (You know, like Gideon, Champion of Justice.) Playing against Boros is sure to keep you on your toes; red's penchant for haste is going to almost guarantee that battalion will always be a possibility. I'm interested to see what other boosts this mechanic's going to give.
(Also, if you were wondering if my hatred of angels has quelled at all, the answer is Aurelia, the Warleader. So no. Thank you for asking.)
Extort (Whenever you cast a spell, you may pay . If you do, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain that much life.)
Admittedly, I had to read this ability a few times before I really got it and then saw its potential. It's definitely playing off the flavor of W/B with it's focus on the benefitting the group. …ok, so "groupmind" isn't necessarily what pops into your head when you think black, but realistically, black's all about caring about yourself. And when you're part of Orzhov, that you suddenly becomes the group you're a part of. So you've got these two colors, all about religion and power and sacrifice (of yourself or others, incidentally), and it chooses to make others pay for what they themselves are doing. Fair, right? To Orzhov it is. Because if you're not with them, you're against them.
I had plans to make a W/B deck during the Innistrad block and never got around to it, but seeing Orzhov spoilers is definitely making me bump that up on my list. (Especially because the plan was to make it a deck where I sacrifice angels to demons, so fuck you, Aurelia. I like Deathpact Angel better anyway.) As it stands, extort looks to be most effective in multiplayer games, which is good for me as that's mainly what I play. That drain not only stacks for every permanent with extort (if you can pay the tax for each) but also sucks life from every opponent. Sounds fabulous.
Built for the long game, extort is kind of the unexpected favorite for me right now. I'm interested to see if we find this popping up on permanents other than creatures.
Cipher (Then you may exile this spell card encoded on a creature you control. Whenever that creature deals combat damage to a player, its controller may cast a copy of the encoded card without paying its mana cost.)
And finally, the most confusing freaking keyword that I can recall in recent memory, right at home in Dimir. Almost reminiscent of Orzhov's haunt, cipher lets you reuse spells and be all tricky-like, making it typically blue and kind of scary to me. The second a stupidly powerful mill spell that I'm SURE we'll see in this set gets encoded onto a flying creature and I'm stuck looking at my board full of rats that (as you can imagine) aren't the best at blocking flying, a tableflip might be involved. You've been warned.
You have to be kind of calculating and otherwise sneaky to make this as broken as it has the potential to be. Use your flying, unblockable, and intimidate creatures and you'll be able to create a really dynamic relationship between your offense and defense. (And you might want to think about buying up those Tormented Souls, Invisible Stalkers, and Geist of Saint Trafts.) But even if those plans don't work out, the benefit to cipher is that you still have a spell, even if you only get to use it once. So if you can build a powerful, effective deck that happens to have a lot of flying in it, adding some cards with cipher in can't hurt. Odds are they're gonna hit at some point and you'll get the option of a free spell if things work out.
Really, I like this. And it's a great fit for what's supposed to be the secretive guild that leaves no trace of their actions behind – the flavor is perfect.
Of course we're still in the very very early stages of spoilers, so we'll see how these pan out. I expected to want to play Dimir this time around, but I should have guessed that its naturally convoluted nature would leave me a little less intrigued – it's just not my play style. Orzhov stays my front-runner with Gruul a close second.

The American Civil Rights movement lasted from 1954 to 1968 – culminating with forced integration and never before seen welfare programs, along with the assassination of one of the Left's greatest martyrs, Martin Luther King Jr. While most of these new programs and legislative acts were proposed by-then President Kennedy he didn't live long enough to see most of his ideas put into law. With the Pioneer of the "New Frontier" having been killed, it was up to Lyndon Johnson and his "Great Society," which we live in today. To understand the problems, we face as white Americans and, especially Southerners, we need a brief lesson in true negro history to see how the downfall of the black community after the Civil Rights movement affects us today.
From the early colonial days to December 18, 1865, when the 13th Amendment of the Constitution was ratified, the negro race had always been under heavy intrusion from the ruling government. After this long period of living a heavily restricted life, the black family saw the biggest economic and social boom the world itself had ever seen. Blacks went from having a heavily controlled lifestyle from the ruling powers, to owning their own homes, building their own communities, having their own businesses and churches. Everything a people needs, the black man got it and lived a pretty good life until the start of the Civil Rights movement.
The negro community had less than 90 years to build a strong community and live a life largely free from government intrusion and made the best of those few years. So, what ended the boom of prosperity for the black community? Most folks will tell you it was (and still is) evil racists that keep the black man down. In fact, that's what our children get hammered into their heads for eight hours a day, five days a week at public school.
The reality of it is this: Second-Wave Feminism, lasting from about 1961 until the early 1980's, ushered into existence a new ongoing period of federal government intrusion into the black family unit – by not only co-opting the Civil Rights movement, but also riding on the coat tails of the movement for racial "equality."
One such radical feminist and journalist, (((Gloria Steinem))), wrote a piece titled 'After Black Power, Women's Liberation' – which makes sense seeing how great the modern black man treats women. But that's beside the point. In said article she doesn't speak much of the negro civil rights movement at all, what a surprise, right? Just a bunch of communist nonsense like this – "Discussions include the parallel myths about women and Negroes (that both have smaller brains than white men, childlike natures, natural "goodness," limited rationality, supportive roles to white men, etc.); the paternalistic family system as prototype for capitalistic society (see Marx and Engels); the conclusion that society can't be restructured until the relationship between the sexes is restructured." Not only was Steinem a vocal rider of the proverbial coat tails of civil rights activists, she was also arrested some years later (in 1984) for disorderly conduct while protesting against the just South African apartheid system.
(((Heather Booth))) (what a surprise another one) was also another large voice within the Civil Rights and feminist movement – her career in being a lefty egalitarian piece of garbage started while she was still in high school where she joined C.O.R.E (Congress of Racial Equality) to protest discrimination in the South, another Yankee sticking their nose in our business. In 1963, she continued this false crusade for equal rights and joined the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Booth soon started protesting school segregation within the city of Chicago, she also helped coordinate freedom school in Chicago's southside. Booth, now another head honcho for the Civil Rights and feminist movement, was recruited to volunteer for "Freedom Summer" – where Yankee filth dared to cross the Mason-Dixon line to get blacks registered to vote and to help create more freedom schools in Mississippi. As for her work in feminism, Booth arranged illegal abortions for women on campuses – this is where she started The Jane Collective.
Who knows how many deaths from complications of such illegal procedures occurred. The Jane Collective was disbanded after Rowe v. Wade. In 1969, Booth joined five other women and founded the Chicago Women's Liberation Union, an organization that preached radical feminism and engaged in communist propaganda and were affiliated with foreign communist parties and various radical Black Power groups.
Last, but certainly not least, and perhaps the most evil and vile woman on this list of radical feminists is (((Betty Goldstein))) – aka Betty Friedan. She was born in 1921 and at the tail end of First Wave feminism. As a young girl she was extremely active in Jewish Marxist circles and reconciled her radical communist ideas writing that, "passion against injustice…originated from my feelings of the injustice of anti-Semitism". In 1943, Betty started a one-year internship in psychology under (((Erik Salomonsen))) aka Erik Erikson (Isn't it strange that they usually change their name?). During this time though, Friedan became more politically active within Marxist groups with many of her cohorts under investigation by the FBI.
In 1963, she wrote The Feminine Mystique – the whole book is psychobabble on how the roles of women are equally important to men, thus meaning women are just as capable as men in any form of work or career path. This book is cited by historians to have conjured up the Second Wave feminist movement and inspiring all the activists mentioned above, as well as others. Friedan co-founded and become the first president of N.O.W (National Organization for Women) – Friedan was the biggest voice within the feminist movement and wrote articles and a few other books. She lobbied for feminist positions in front of Congress; she also helped organize The Women's Strike for Equality where she lead a group of some twenty thousand women demanding equal opportunities in education and the work place. Predictably, she also advocated for abortion and affordable child care centers.
She headed up another pro-abortion group under the name of the National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws, whose purpose was to end anti-abortion laws (Might as well make manslaughter and homicide legal while you're at it) The group was re-named the National Abortion Rights Action League after Rowe v. Wade. What is it with Jews and wanting to murder babies? She, as all the examples of extremely radical feminists, was vocal for the Civil Rights movement, affordable housing and other forms of welfare (really just wealth re-distribution from the white middle-class).
As you can see, there is no denying not only the feminist infiltration of the Civil Rights movement nor the Jewish influence in both movements.
Now that they have once again intruded into the black home through lies and Marxist propaganda, we see the full destruction of one community and now it seems we're next. The black man was only the test subject for their plans, the first thing that came from welfare programs was the removal of the black man (specifically, the father) from the black community. The men hold the community together and once all the black women discovered every aspect of their existence was subsidized, the black man was of no use to the black family.
In the past, the black man was the only option for the black woman. The man had to be in the family because that was realistically the only option until welfare came about at the end of the Civil Rights movement. As strong as the black community was throughout the 1920's into the 1950's – it came crumbling down.
However, the white man is the real goal. Once they fully control every aspect of the white community and drive out the white father from the home and community – it's over for not only our people, but every group of people on the planet. Once they get every woman on welfare and drive all the men from the home, they will have total control.
I want to live in a world where every free man can exercise his conscious. I want to live in a world where we can rid every people from this foreign (((group))). All I want is to live without the authoritarian ideas of the Jewish Marxists. While most will see this as an apologetic piece and that I'm a cuck for not being a crazed exterminationist, we must remember that these problems are not the fault of the black man. Yes, they have low agency and high time preference, but it wasn't whites who took advantage of that – it was (((them))) and they will do the same to us.
-By Eric Goldstein
Oh, I'm a good old Rebel, now that's just what I am; For this "Fair Land of Freedom" I do not give a damn! I'm glad I fit against it, I only wish we'd won, And I don't want no pardon for anything I done.

In today's world your home security is something you definitely don't want to overlook. With burglary and home invasions on the increase in many parts of the UK, you can never be too safe when it comes to choosing new Bespoke Timber Security windows.
So, it is welcome news that a specialist wooden window manufacturer has designed a range of casement and sliding sash windows that not only look beautiful, but also pass a list of stringent security testing.
Hampton Windows based in Northern Ireland but supplying to the UK and abroad have designed their bespoke wooden windows to meet the requirements of the Loss Prevention Standard 1175 SR2 rating making them one of the most (If not thee most) secure Timber Windows available on the market today.
The significance of Hampton Windows gaining the LPS1175 SR2 rating is that no other Timber window has gained this accreditation. The window market is littered with window manufacturers that have not gained this level of design and ingenuity in their windows.From Companies using space age materials to traditional timber and PVC window manufacturers. Hampton Windows accomplishment in obtaining LPS1175 is a true testament to the beautiful range of windows they have designed.
Hampton's innovative range of sliding sash windows has also been added to 'The Red Book'. The Red Book is issued by RICS as part of their commitment to promote and support high standards in valuation delivery worldwide. No other Timber Sliding Sash Window Manufacturer has ever been listed in the Red Book due to the high standards that must be met in order to have your company listed.
Mervyn Montgomery, Managing Director at Hampton Windows said, "With the ever-present level of crime against domestic properties and increasing sophistication and aggression of intruders it is more important than ever to make certain your home is secure. Making sure your new timber security sash windows will provide the required level of protection should be key in who you choose to design and manufacture them.
At Hampton's we believe that just because it's becoming more and more necessary to install the most secure windows possible to protect yourself and your loved ones, you shouldn't have to settle for an unattractive looking window."
Hamptons have an extensive 35-year experience of designing the most secure timber products available. They can advise you on the best level of security to protect your home against the danger posed by modern criminals.

As a city of almost nine million people, it's no wonder that London is full of a rich and diverse range of housing designs. From beautiful several-storey
town houses steeped in history to garden apartments with a modern twist, the many varieties on offer are revealed with just a short walk down any London
There's also a wide range of conservatory types available to complement these different home types, too. From traditional orangeries to conservatories which can substantially expand the size of a ground floor flat, there's a lot to choose from.
Thanks to our 35 years' worth of experience, we're able to offer all these styles of conservatory and many more. And with our local conservatory and orangery design experts ready to help you from the design and idea conception stage right through to the nitty-gritty aspects of your conservatory's construction, we're an ideal team to help you through.
Working around you
We know that every conservatory and orangery is different.
Garden spaces in London are often small for example, and as a result a standard conservatory or orangery may not fit. That's why we offer small bespoke conservatories that slot snugly into your space without having to take up all of your garden or pose too much of a challenge when it comes to installation.
You don't have to live in a large house to benefit from the relaxing nature of a conservatory either, and we offer a range of wooden conservatories London property owners love. If your home is a ground floor apartment with an adjoining garden, we have plenty of designs to suit you. We're also able to provide contemporary conservatories and orangeries which suit more modern homes, too, by making the most of the chic aesthetic which modern timber design can offer. What's more, our solar control glass is perfect for giving your new extension that cool, contemporary feel.
We've also got plenty of experience helping commercial establishments such as restaurants and hotels develop larger scale conservatories and orangeries designed to provide light, airy, stylish space in which to accommodate their customers.
And if you're looking for a unique orangery or extension, we can help with our bespoke conservatory London service that will truly wow your visitors and give you a sanctuary in your home that is like no other. Our design experts are waiting to help you create the bespoke conservatory of your dreams, so get in touch today.
Historic homes
The conservatory has been truly popular in Britain since the Victorian era, which means it makes an ideal add-on for any home which reflects traditional architecture.
As conservation specialists, we know how to ensure your new conservatory is in-keeping with the rest of your home. Nineteenth-century houses often had large, curved bay windows to make the most of the view outside, and we can help you recreate this Victorian vibe. Georgian conservatories, meanwhile, tended to be less intricate and more flat-fronted in nature, and if you prefer this design then we can bring your dreams to life.
Town houses are a familiar sight across London, and many town house owners are choosing to extend their properties with a conservatory or orangery. All sorts of designs work well with these homes, and we can install your next hardwood conservatory London wide in a design to suit any taste.
In fact, the diversity of London's architecture makes it perfect for proactive conservatory design. By encouraging you to think outside of the box, you'll be able to get involved in the design process and help create something that is truly meaningful to you. Give us a call or email us today and we'll be glad to help you get started!
We beat off some fantastic competition in the Architectural Glasshouse Category to be crowned Winners at the Awards Ceremony in the Dorchester on Friday 22nd September.

The project selected is a beautiful hardwood Orangery with bi-folding doors and 3 roof lanterns. I'm sure you can agree that it is a marvellous extension to have on any property.
