A public meeting with Jean-Luc Mélenchon: For an alternative to austerity in Europe.
6 December 2012
See below for videos of Jean-Luc Mélenchon who presented a progressive alternative to the austerity policies which are being implemented across Europe and addressed the shortcomings of European integration. One of the most influential leaders of the 'Other Left' in Europe, he discussed the 'historic failure' of social democracy; its inability to shape a European Union based on solidarity and social justice. The introduction was followed by a question and answer session.
Chair: Prof Philippe Marlière (UCL)
Jean-Luc Mélenchon was a cabinet minister in Lionel Jospin's government (2000-02) as well as a member of the French Senate (1986-2009). He was a long-time executive member of the Socialist Party (1977-2008). He left the PS in 2008 and created the Left Party which is part of a wider electoral coalition, the Left Front. This umbrella organisation is similar to Syriza in Greece or Die Linke in Germany. In May 2012, Jean-Luc Mélenchon ran for the French presidency. In the first round of the election, he secured 11.1% of the share of the votes nationally (over 4 million votes). Since 2009, Mélenchon has been an MEP.

Day 16
... she realised she had to get over, many a storm, torrential downpours, huge straight roads but it has been fun....a jolly good thing we have a bigger car than a 'compact'. Tonight we found a travel lodge which was meant to be a cheapie for $32 which tripled to $92 as it was a weekend! We decided to stay two nights so we had time to spend in Savannah which is another 20 miles ...
Historical Savannah
... 11:00 and at 24 degrees, we walked downtown through square after square, there are 22. All relatively close together, they hold fountains, gazebos, statues and oak tree canopies. Azaleas paint Savannah pink, white and purple for a few weeks in early March. There are neighbourhoods that are haunting. Underneath some restaurants are tunnels leading to the Savannah River where the deeper you go, the creepier it gets where many a sailor met his fate ...
... we did only for about 20 minutes max before being beckoned inside. Andrew wasn't excited about being here but I said look on the bright side we can go back to the church after lunch. He took some photos outside the home, how lovely it looked inside. We had been told to go there by a lady in Tallahassee Florida when we did some washing. We TripAdvisor the place and I knew it was a place to go. It was listed as the third best place out of 2500 restaurants in Savannah. ...
Night 2: Screaming and coughing
Night 2: Screaming and coughing I went to bed with shivers and was a bit delirious. Makes sense when you drive 993 miles over the Appalachians with a screaming, teething baby for half those miles. And throw in a nasty cold to top it off. At least the weather was good: clear and in the 50's. The dark winter morning was spent alone, just me and my podcasts. I cut through Indiana and decided to go the Cincinnati route to Florida, ...
... Becca's favorite back alley we crossed through Forsyth Park and stopped at the local American Legion to grab a drink and dinner. We ordered our beers from a familiar looking American Legion/VFW bar and walked down the hall to Betty Bombers All-American Eatery. The eatery was an updated old-school diner decked out with old Coke and military memorabilia. Kaitlyn and I split the hot pastrami and fries. The pastrami was piled high and had a great peppery ...

Buttermilk is a magical ingredient. It transforms meats into melt-in-your-mouth masterpieces and baked goods into springy, moist confections. It gives tang and texture to dressings, ice creams, and custards. And, of course, it's the not-so-secret ingredient in fluffy pancakes. Behold, the beauty of buttermilk!

MELISSA BLOCK, host:
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Melissa Block.
ROBERT SIEGEL, host:
And I'm Robert Siegel.
The surge of troops to Afghanistan has begun. Early this morning at Camp Lejuene, North Carolina, Marines from the 1st Battalion 6th Regiment said goodbye to their families and headed off. These Marines are the first wave of the additional 30,000 troops President Obama has ordered to Afghanistan.
Catherine Welch of member station WHQR was at Camp Lejuene as they shipped out.
CATHERINE WELCH: Outside the battalion's barracks, couples hug each other tightly, mothers and sons hold hands, clusters of Marines smoke and make small talk. Away from the crowd, Lance Corporal Nicholas Bouchard, drapes each arm around his parents, Debbie and Jeff, who are reluctant to let their son go.
Mr. DEBBIE BOUCHARD: It is. It's hard.
Ms. JEFF BOUCHARD: It's tough, it's tough. But we knew - we knew that it was coming, although we were hoping that it was to be after Christmas. But we know - we know the deal. He's got to do what he's got to do.
WELCH: The Bouchards folded Christmas into their Thanksgiving celebration back home in Newnan, Georgia. They put up a tree and gave their son his presents.
Lance Corporal NICHOLAS BOUCHARD (1st Battalion 6th Regiment): I ended up getting a new laptop which I'm not bringing with.
(Soundbite of laughter)
Lance Cpl. BOUCHARD: A portable iPod charger, which I will be bringing with, and money and gift cards that I've used.
(Soundbite of laughter)
WELCH: Fifteen hundreds Marines will leave Camp Lejuene before Christmas. Because this deployment came so closely after Thanksgiving break, many of the Marines leaving this morning don't have family to hug goodbye. That's not the case for Lance Corporal Clayton Blunt. His parents have brought his girlfriend along as their Christmas present for him. Blunt fidgets with a silver ring on his finger, one of the keepsakes he is taking.
Lance Corporal CLAYTON BLUNT (Squad Leader, Alpha Company): And I carry a notebook she and I share that we both write in. Every time we get to see each other, we write a little bit in there.
WELCH: Blunt is a squad leader for Alpha Company. This is his second deployment to Afghanistan, and having a sense of the country gives him peace of mind. Although this time the weather will be different.
Lance Cpl. BLUNT: It's going to be cold. It's already snowing there, so we've been outfitted with all this cold-weather gear.
WELCH: Like Blunt, half of this Camp Lejuene battalion has already been to Afghanistan. Major Heath Henderson says that experience will give them the edge.
Major HEATH HENDERSON (1st Battalion 6th Regiment): That we accomplish our mission and whichever part of Afghanistan we go to is better off from us having been there.
(Soundbite of engine)
WELCH: It's a few minutes past midnight when a line of charter buses rolls in. This unit heads to Afghanistan after watching other Marine battalions return home with mounting casualties. Lance Corporal Bouchard has faith that his training will keep him alive. He hugs his mom and then his dad and then he boards the bus.
Ms. BOUCHARD: He's smart. He's learned all he can learn, and he'll put that to use now. And he'll go over there and do what he's been assigned to do and he'll come home to us safe and sound.
WELCH: Until then, their plan is to follow the progress of the surge. As the buses round the corner, the Bouchard's grab a hold of each other and quietly walk back to their car.

I stayed four nights for my foliage trip and was very pleased. The room was clean and well service each day, the place and surroundings are quiet, the owners friendly and helpful. It's close to downtown and, if you don't want to have to go too far for breakfast (or that early morning cup of coffee), both McDonald's and Howard Johnson's -- one of only two HoJo restaurants left in the USA -- are within walking distance. If you enjoy a nice country walk, the Peninsula Trails are right up a drive next to HoJo, and for a change of pace from Lake Placid, you're right on the road to Saranac Lake without having to go through downtown LP. As someone who doesn't like to gorge myself at dinner, I also appreciate having a refrigerator in the room so I can save my leftovers.

The broadcast series Viewtiful Joe (2004) follows the popular videogame from Capcom (2003). Joe is a slacker-dude, totally hooked on the anime hero Captain Blue. He drags his long-suffering girlfriend Sylvia to a "Captain Blue" feature, but they find the ending has changed. A new gang of villains, the Jadow, cleans the Captain's clock and grabs Sylvia into the film. When Joe follows, Captain Blue gives him a V-watch that enables him to transform into a super-hero version of himself. He's off to rescue Sylvia! Filmmakers have been dumping heroes into onscreen worlds since Buster Keaton's brilliant Sherlock, Jr. (1924); Viewtiful Joe may not add much to the premise, but it's a lot of fun. With his spiky hair, backwards baseball cap, cargo shorts, large head, and small body, Joe looks like a cross between an anime hero and a character from American underground comix. Viewtiful Joe pokes fun at the clichés of superhero series, although at times it sounds like a Gekigangar III story read by Bill and Ted. (Unrated, suitable for ages 10 and older: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon
Director: Takaaki Ishiyama (Dominion Tank Police)
Character Design: Yukiko Oohashi (Magicuser's Club, Oruchuban Ebichu TV)

The 10 million-plus refugees from the fighting throughout the Middle East call for a major American humanitarian response. And now.
That might not be the politically correct thing to be saying during a presidential campaign that seems full of divisive rhetoric about immigrants. But the atrocities uncovered last week in the back of a truck in Austria and the picture of Aylan Kurdi, the Syrian child who washed ashore on a Turkish beach, are chilling signs of what lies ahead the more the West and the rest of the world dither about this humanitarian crisis.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Mother's Day Brunch
Fab Finding Follow-Up: Mother's Day Brunch
Last Sunday, mom and I spent some good old quality time together. We enjoyed a nice outdoor brunch and I wanted my look to get her motherly stamp of approval. I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!
I started you off with a pair of Chloe Filao Sunglasses ($330) because I love the purple and black combo and they'd keep the sun out of my eyes while I enjoyed brunch with mommie. Let's see what you all came up with!
Look #1, created by daddio49 had me all ruffled up, but in a good way. The contrast between the bright blue dress and neutral pink shoes is Fab and mommie approved.
To see the rest,
Look #2, created by northbound711 is retro casual. The combination of the white jeans and graphic top evokes an uptown-hippie vibe.
Look #3, created by kendallina is girly cute. I love the jeweled sandals!

It might be another month before the holiday season kicks into full gear, but [artist id="976″]Mariah Carey[/artist] is already in the mood to help out the less fortunate. On Monday, the songstress visited Baker High School in Baker, Florida, to announce the latest person receiving a revamped home from "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition."
Dressed in a black ensemble and accompanied by the "Extreme Makeover"
team, the singer was all smiles as she surprised cheerleading coach Finis Gaston with the news that he would be the recipient of the ABC show's generosity.
The pop diva tweeted, "So amazing down here@ Baker HS w/Extreme Home makeover! Loving Ty, Micheal, Tracy, Johnny-all the kids@the school+the Gaston family!"
Heritage Homes of Mobile, Alabama, is expected to complete the new house while Gaston and his nieces and nephews head on a vacation to Disney World. The show airs December 12.
Carey has been out of the public eye as pregnancy rumors have swirled around her. But that all may change with the November 2 release of her holiday album Merry Christmas II You. The first single from that record, "Oh Santa!," was released to iTunes last Tuesday.
What do you think of Mariah's return to the spotlight? Sound off below!

A more liberal and competitive radio market in KSA offers a wide range of opportunities for marketers.
April 18, 2010 3:15 by Rania Habib
A very positive Fakhoury says that Mindshare is "very excited" by the opportunities that the licensing scheme will bring forth. "We're really looking forward to this, and we believe in the process that's been put out," he says. "Consumers will definitely gain from it, brands will gain from it, and the media will gain from it; it's a win-win situation for everybody."
Action stations: How the Saudi private radio license scheme works in practice
According to the Ministry of Culture & Information in Saudi Arabia, all license holders must cover the entire country, broadcasting out of no less than 15 cities and a maximum of 30. "This will not be easy, unless companies enjoy great human and technical resources, and are deemed as fully equipped with technical cadres and radio programs, to succeed in attracting different categories of listeners from around the country," says Dr. Riad Ben Kamal Najem, assisting undersecretary for Engineering Affairs at the Ministry.
"Companies should also establish upon implementation a Saudi company, with a 100 percent Saudi capital, headquartered in the KSA, and responsible for operating the network," he adds. "One party cannot acquire more than one permit for the time being."
Mazen Fakhoury, managing director of Mindshare in Saudi Arabia, is very optimistic about the changes happening on the Saudi radio scene, and says that the way the process has unfolded is highly credible.
"I have no doubt in my mind that the Saudi market, when it comes to competitive frameworks, is the best in the Middle East," says Fakhoury. "From a legal perspective and from the demands they are making, it's the most credible framework I have ever seen in the region."
Fakhoury says that the Ministry of Culture & Information has ensured that the tender documents make for a level playing field, where all of those who bid and are awarded licenses will be able to compete with each other. "Rotana will of course have some sort of advantage in terms of content, as they own a lot of the rights to Arabic songs," he says. "But as far as the spirit I've seen from the tender documents; I would have to say kudos to the ministry for creating a leveled playing field where all stations will have to come up with innovations."
Value added
Nasr El Beik, general manager of Ghayat Al Ibdaa Innovation Holding, says that acquiring a radio broadcasting authorization has been part of company concerns and priorities for a while.

"I think we're all entitled to some level of privacy," Condit said Monday in a Washington D.C. courtroom at the trial of Ingmar Guandique, 29, who is charged with murder, kidnapping and attempted sexual assault.
Condit, 62, whose political career was destroyed by the sensational 2001 case, said he and Levy, 24, were on good terms at the time she went missing. Just the week before her disappearance, he helped her make career contacts.

REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio (AP) — Ohio officials are clearing the way for the return of five surviving exotic animals to a woman whose husband released dozens of wild creatures last fall and then committed suicide.
The Ohio Department of Agriculture announced the decision Monday at an agency hearing in which the state was to defend its authority to quarantine the animals — two leopards, two primates and a bear — on suspicion of infectious diseases.
A spokeswoman for the agency said the state had exhausted its authority in the case and that the state's agriculture director would lift the quarantine order that was placed on the animals in October. Medical results released last week showed all five animals are free of the dangerously contagious or infectious diseases for which they were tested.
That means the animals can be returned to Marian Thompson of Zanesville, though it's unclear when that might happen. Logistics for retrieving the animals will have to be worked out between Mrs. Thompson and the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, which has been holding the five creatures, said agriculture spokesman Erica Pitchford.
Once the animals are returned to Mrs. Thompson, nothing in Ohio law allows state officials to check in on their well-being or requires improvements to conditions in which they are kept, Ms. Pitchford said.
"That authority lies solely with the local humane society and county prosecutor," she said. The humane society could intervene with help from the county prosecutor if there was an investigation into animal cruelty.
Zoo spokeswoman Patty Peters said the facility must follow certain protocols to prepare for the animals to be handed back to Mrs. Thompson. For instance, she said, the animals must be sedated for the transfer, but they cannot eat or drink for 24 hours before being given the sedative.
Ms. Peters said the animals had been fed on Monday, and the earliest they could be moved would be Wednesday. She said other details were being worked out, but she didn't yet have additional information.
Mrs. Thompson is the widow of Terry Thompson, who released 56 animals — including black bears, mountain lions and Bengal tigers — from his eastern Ohio farm Oct. 18 before he committed suicide. Authorities killed 48 of the animals as a public safety measure.
Three leopards, two primates and a bear survived and were taken to the Columbus Zoo. One leopard had to be euthanized at the zoo in January, and the other animals have been there since.
Mrs. Thompson's attorney, Robert McClelland, said his client has adequate cages for the surviving animals, according to a letter obtained last week by the Associated Press through a public records request. The state's agriculture director told Mr. McClelland earlier this month that the Agriculture Department required proof of the arrangements Mrs. Thompson has made for the animals' confinement and care.
Mr. McClelland and Mrs. Thompson declined to answer reporters' question about the animals' return as they left Monday's hearing at the department's headquarters in Reynoldsburg, just outside Columbus.
State officials issued a quarantine order because they said they were concerned about reports that the animals lived in unsanitary conditions where they could be exposed to disease. The order prevented the Columbus Zoo from releasing the animals until it's clear they're free of dangerous diseases.
Tom Stalf, the Columbus Zoo's chief operating officer, said in a sworn statement released Friday by the Agriculture Department that he was at the Thompsons' property the day the animals were released, where he observed that two primates were held in separate, small bird cages. A brown bear was also kept in a cage that wasn't fit for its size, he said.
"The bear was very aggressive and was biting at the wire cage," Mr. Stalf said in the affidavit, which is dated April 24.
Mr. Thompson's suicide, the animals' release and their killings led lawmakers to re-examine the state's restrictions on exotic pets, which are considered some of the nation's weakest. The state Senate recently passed a bill that would ban new ownership of monkeys, lions and other exotic animals. It now goes to the House for consideration.
Gov. John Kasich, the Columbus Zoo and the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation support the measure, which would allow current owners to keep their animals by obtaining a new state-issued permit by 2014 and meeting other strict conditions. Facilities accredited by some national zoo groups would be exempt from the bill, along with sanctuaries and research institutions.

They are not as plentiful this year and they took a long while to arrive (suspect the long cold spring / early summer was to blame) but they are here now and enjoying a bumper feast of aphids on the roses etc.

Opinion: Bring Back the Line Item Veto!
Most states give their governors the power that President Clinton had from 1996 through 1998, where he could personally pick out certain parts of spending bills for him to veto, rather than vetoing or accepting entire packages of legislation.
This 'line-item veto' was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, and George W. Bush failed in an attempt to bring a weakened version of it back eight years later. Given our fiscal difficulties, this issue has been tossed around since Bush's failure, and now a bipartisan duo from the House Budget Committee has come up with a potential workaround.
The Expedited Line-Item Veto and Rescissions Act would give the president the power to peel some spending items from already passed bills, sending them back to Congress for an up or down vote. This effort to trim discretionary spending is a very promising development, and a balanced response to the problem the Supreme Court had with the line-item veto, making sure the president can't sidestep congressional constitutional control over passage of legislation.
From the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget:
The Expedited Line-Item Veto and Rescissions Act would allow the president to submit discretionary spending items to Congress to cancel after spending bills have been passed. If brought to the floor, these cancellations would get an up-or-down vote in Congress. If they are enacted, discretionary spending caps would be adjusted downward, ensuring that all savings go to deficit reduction.
This legislation is very similar to the Reduce Unnecessary Spending Act, which was introduced in both chambers earlier this year by Sens. Carper (D-DE) and McCain (R-AZ) and Rep. Van Hollen. CRFB president Maya MacGuineas also testified on the Act in March, saying that "giving the [resident a more central role could increase accountability and serve as a deterrent to Members for adding low-priority spending that is likely to be included in a presidential rescissions package." She also recommended broadening the scope to mandatory spending and tax expenditures where applicable, something that could also be applied to the new bill.
MacGuineas is spot on here, in that this makes it much harder for Obama to stay out of the fray in Congress, as has done on most legislative matters throughout his presidency (with some notable exceptions, like health care reform). I also share her sentiment that the bill would be better if it were applied to more than merely discretionary spending.
If this passes, it will be interesting to see how it might effect the horse trading that goes on behind the scenes. If the president has the ability to peel out segments of legislation that certain legislators slipped into the bill in exchange for their vote. Hopefully it would lead to more compromise on the core portions of bills, but I could see how it might lead to a bit more stagnation, if on-the-fence votes couldn't be 'bought' with line items.
Regardless, anything that would potentially help trim congressional spending is something we should support. There are no silver bullets, and this is certainly something that'll only work in the margins, but these margins are counted in billions of dollars. If this passes, and passes constitutional muster, we'll really be able to see how serious presidents are about spending.
