No electro, no metro, a little retro, ahh, perfecto
Lyric Meaning
On previous albums, namely Graduation, Kanye's relied more heavily on an electronic sound for his beats. On "The Joy", Kanye and Pete Rock throw out this electronic sound, in favor of the soul samples he became famous for on his debut The College Dropout.
Kanye has a similar moment on Yeezus as well, where he spends 9 of the 10 tracks creating loud and daring electronic beats, then makes the last song a retro throwback to his soul days.

Disloyal Opposition
Anarchists are finally organized—between two covers.
Jul 26, 2010, Vol. 15, No. 42 • By HARVEY KLEHR
Even though only one of the plotters convicted for killing Tsar Alexander II was Jewish, anti-Semitism was used as a pretext for the first widespread pogroms in Russia, beginning in 1881. Although Butterworth says little about its anti-Semitism, the People's Will, whose campaign of terror sparked the repression, accepted peasant anti-Semitism as a mark of growing political consciousness. One of his main characters, the Marquis Henri Rochefort, a Communard who captured worldwide attention with his spectacular escape from a Pacific penal colony and remained a stalwart of the anarchist cause for decades, was an inveterate anti-Semite who inveighed against Jewish bankers and Alfred Dreyfus. Butterworth even suggests, without hard evidence, that Rochefort might have collaborated with Rachkovsky to produce the most infamous and influential work of European anti-Semitism, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
Unlike the Marxists, the anarchists could rarely agree on anything but their enemies. That left them prey to a wide variety of fanatics and schemers. While serious, if flawed, political thinkers like Prince Kropotkin, the famous Russian geographer, or William Morris, the British poet and artist who longed for a feudal-like community, grappled with issues of federalism and centralization, others praised assassins as martyrs "consecrated to death" or, like one anarchist thinker, were haunted by the injustice of their enjoying more than their share of sunlight. Many of the debates in which anarchists engaged—whether seizing the property of others was restitution or theft, whether killing innocent people was "propaganda by the deed" or murder—surely must have convinced most rational people that their movement was filled with crackpots.
Harvey Klehr is the Andrew W. Mellon professor of politics and history at Emory and the author, with John Earl Haynes, of Spies: The Rise and Fall of the KGB in America.

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
A look at Switzerland's entrenched gun culture
Shafik Mandhai | 07 Jul 2014 12:12 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Iraq, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
Muslim scholars and movements from across the Sunni Islamic spectrum have rejected the caliphate declared by the Islamic State group, with the fighters receiving scathing criticism from both mainstream religious leaders, and those associated with their former allies, al-Qaeda.
Assem Barqawi, also known as Abu Mohamed al-Maqdesi, who was released from a Jordanian prison in June after serving a sentence for recruiting volunteers to fight in Afghanistan, called fighters loyal to the Islamic State group's leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, "deviant".
Maqdesi, a supporter of the al-Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front, hit out at the Islamic State group for its brutal methods. "Is this caliphate a sanctuary for the vulnerable and a refuge for all Muslims, or a sword hanging over those Muslims who disagree with them," Maqdesi said.
Live Box 201461213304888167
In rejecting the self-proclaimed caliphate, Maqdesi, a Salafi, has found himself on the same side as Sufi leaders, such as the Syrian Muhammad al-Yacoubi.
In a post on his Twitter account, the Syrian exile similarly described the followers of the group, formerly known as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), as "deviators".
"[The] Khilafah state (ISIL) declared is illegitimate," Yacoubi said. Adding that supporting it is "haram", or forbidden.
The view was echoed by Qatar-based Egyptian religious leader, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, who said the declaration was "void" according to Islamic law.
"A group simply announcing a caliphate, is not enough to establish a caliphate," Qaradawi said in an open letter published on the website for the International Union of Muslim Scholars, which he heads.
There was similar admonishment from the pan-Islamic political party Hizb ut-Tahrir, which believes it is a religious obligation for Muslims to work towards establishing a caliphate.
"The issue of the Khilafah is too great for its image to be distorted or for its reality to be changed merely by an announcement here or an announcement there," the group said in a statement on its website.
Speaking during Friday prayers, Rachid Ghannouchi, the founder of the Ennahda Party, Tunisia's main Islamist party, added to the chorus of criticism, calling the declaration of a caliphate by followers of Baghdadi a "reckless" act, which gave a "deceptive message".
"Nations do not arise in this ridiculous way," he told his followers.
RELATED: Opinion - Baghdadi's misconstrued caliphate
Farid Senzai, a professor of Middle East politics at Santa Clara University, told Al Jazeera many Muslim groups felt the Islamic State group was hurting their cause.
"The Baghdadi caliphate is rejected by most mainstream Islamists because they feel it damages their cause to establish an Islamic system through peaceful means," Senzai said.
He added the fighters were further discredited by their "harsh implementation" of Islamic law.
According to Senzai, that rejection was shared among ordinary believers.
"Many Muslims would support a caliphate as an idea but not support ISIL because of its violent methodology," he said.
Despite its sizeable list of critics, the disapproval is unlikely to have a big effect on Baghdadi's followers.
"They do not care about traditional and mainstream scholars, they have their own interpretation which they continue to insist gives them legitimacy," Senzai said.

Hi all,
Can someone recommend a plugin that would save particular blog pages in static format, complete with links (html, I suppose), that I could then save elsewhere separate from the blog?
I'm using a blog for a course I teach every year. Students post their projects to a subnav menu. I'd like to save a copy of those pages in html or maybe pdf format to save the look, then delete them off the blog for the next class. Right now, I have five screens of "pages" that are very cumbersome to wade through...I need to get them off.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've been searching the forums, and not finding anything, but perhaps I'm not searching the right terms? "save pages archive"?

i prefer msn but i'm rarely online as it is!
Are you a fan?:Fan of:

well... thats my opinion neways, ur all entitles all ur own crappy opinions aswell :P
for the record, WLM was known as MSN 8 for a while aswell as it is apart of the MSN network! it works with yahoo aswell...

Even heroes know when to be scared!
I have all 3, AIM, Yahoo and MSN..but I like MSN alot better than the other two. That's the one I use the most.

I have all four. All compiled neatly on Trillian, but I also have them installer regularly for those times it becomes the worst pain in my life. I'm never on either, unless I'm bothered enough by someone to get on. Go figure.

ya I was gonna say, I leave offline messages all the time to my friends. And they do too me. But I have MSN live messenger so maybe it's a new feature they put in.
Anyway, I like MSN, although it sometimes goes down and that really bugs me I still like the style f it better. Plus I must say I have my own collection of smiles.
Not sure about the MSN Live Messenger, since I'm using Trillian and I've not tried it yet, but I know about the MSN Messenger. And that one couldn't use offline messages.
My favorite messenger is MSN. I'm always on it and rarely off of it, so if you wanted to get in contact with me. That is the best way. I do get on my AIM too. But once every couple days. I just like the customizable options with MSN Messenger. The display pictures are fun, you can make backgrounds, and it's easy to do group discussions, even though they do get a little hectic.
Hectic is right. Sometimes though I can't stand the stupid noise that goes off to let you know someone said something. When you have like 5 conversations going on and they woult shut up it's like "Ahhhh!" >.<

I have no preference... none of the different clients have any unique features that I really care about. I really just use instant messengers to chat and share files. Most of the other stuff feels like vanity stuff.
I use AIM the most, since that's what most of my friends use, and I use MSN to talk to... one person. I don't use ICQ or YIM since I don't have anyone to talk to on those clients... and I used to use Xfire, but I don't do much PC gaming anymore (though I hope that will change), so I haven't much use for that, either.
On my old PC, I used Trillian. On my Mac, I usually use either iChat or Adium. Adium has support for multiple clients and accounts; meanwhile, iChat can actually perform file transfers.

Instant Messengers suck. I hate them all with a passion. Go into a public aim chat room and notice how they all seem to be retarded.
AIM especially is a breeding ground for retards.
Why does everyone love MSN Messenger? Yahoo has been using the offline messages for a LONG time, has built-in internet radio, and other really neat things. Yahoo! is my favorite, of all of the messengers. No one I know touches it with a 10 mile stick though. =/
XFire comes afterwards. Gamer required.
