What we believe
Politics has become more about power than anything else - and about representing connected interests who play by a different set of rules than the rest of us.
In many ways, the partisanship of our times is an illusion, which melts away when there is money to be made or a connected donor to serve. What we're left with is a system that's predictable, frustrating, and uninspiring.
Because of this, voters are leaving the traditional parties in droves, hungry for something *new*.
People don't like political parties, so why create a new one? Isn't it better to just vote for the best person?
It is, and it would be. The trouble is that under Massachusetts law (and laws across America) political parties and the candidates they support have special access to the ballot, special rules to compete in elections, special rules that allow them to raise more money. It means that candidates with no party don't really have much of a chance.
We aim to change that.
The people in charge thing the system is working. The trouble is, it's working to keep things pretty much as they are.
We founded the United Independent Party because we were tired of hearing people say "there's nothing anyone can do to change things."
Developing, supporting and electing authentic leaders
In 2012, a group of like-minded people founded the United Independent Party. They weren't political insiders; just people who wanted to build a better future by doing the hard work of creating it.
From the beginning there were people who said it couldn't be done, but we succeeded in taking the first, tough steps to get this movement started. Still, there's much work to be done.
We at the United Independent Party believe it's time to replace elected officials – at all levels of government – who aren't doing the people's business. This will take smart, independent-minded candidates, as well as the people who support them.
If you don't think it's possible to change the system, we are not for you. But if you believe that a motivated, determined and dedicated group of people is what it takes to make things happen – we welcome you.
Membership Matters
Massachusetts law gives huge advantages to candidates supported by official parties. If you want to change the system, there has to be a party to do it.
This is where your membership matters.
Under Massachusetts law, 43,000 people (1% of voters) must be enrolled in the United Independent Party by November 2016 for it to retain its official status. Joining the UIP means you're playing an integral role in keeping this status and ensuring the UIP is a permanent part of the political landscape.
Building a future that has real choices, authentic political debate, and meaningful change starts with your enrollment. It's easy and takes just two minutes. Learn more at www.unitedindependent.org/enroll
What makes us different?
You may not agree with all of our positions and ideas – but you'll know what they are, and why we hold those views.
There are no big-money donors or connected groups driving our agenda – it's based on confronting the reality of an issue, learning what experts and stakeholders believe are the best answers, and working to build consensus on the best solutions. It's the kind of thing that rarely happens in politics, but we know that the same-old tired ideological debates aren't the way to build the future.
This is what the United Independent Party is all about.
Our Vision: An Economy that Works
The American Dream is about working hard and aspiring to a better standard of living than the generation before you. That dream has been slipping away, gobbled up by a relentlessly increasing cost of living that drains families' wallets, and businesses' ability to grow and prosper.
Big, politically connected businesses have done well in this environment. Mortgage and student loan companies, health insurers and hospital systems, banks and pharmaceutical companies all have prospered under policies that undermine small businesses, families, and people trying to get by. The inequality plaguing our economy today is a natural result of government policy that favors these connected groups.
"An Economy that Works" means knocking down the entrenched powers that have created a rigged version of the free market. Our program is to significantly reduce the cost of living and the cost of doing business. More money in every family's pocket means more money to build a thriving, vibrant economy. Hard work should be enough to save, to buy a home, to pay for your kids to go to college, and to have a comfortable retirement.
It's how our economy used to work, and it can work that way again.
Here's how we will get there.
Reduce healthcare costs. Ending monopolistic hospital mergers, and implementing a fee schedule for hospital care would save nearly $2 billion dollars a year. This represents almost $2,000 in savings a year for a family of 5.
Zero-based budgeting. The state's budget needs a complete top-to-bottom review. People responsible for every line item should justify what they are doing, why they do it, and what resources they actually need to do it. This discipline will support important reallocations of money, and root out waste and corruption. If just 5% of tax money is wasted, that's more than $1 billion a year. That's money that can go to cities and towns, to programs for seniors, veterans, job training, transportation and other priorities.
Dramatically increase construction of middle class homes. Younger people starting out and baby boomers looking to downsize don't have many choices. Homebuilding and local zoning are overly focused on big homes and luxury condos. It's time to re-focus on building starter and multi-family homes, especially near public transit and in walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods. Tens of thousands of new homes like these will make homeownership and renting more affordable, attract people of all ages to stay or move here, and help build even more dynamic, thriving communities.
A transportation system built on a vision for the future. Our transit system must support the development of thriving communities and neighborhoods. The MBTA and regional transit authorities must be reliable and resilient, and fares must be affordable so people actively choose public transit. Aid to cities and towns should favor communities that choose to build homes and neighborhoods in areas near transit, and planning should encourage connections of local and regional bus routes that feed into rail lines. Drawing more people – with more disposable income – into communities will drive higher levels of economic growth.
Re-imagined education. We must re-imagine education to make it about 21st century skills – creativity, critical thinking, determination and grit. The over-reliance on standardized tests robs kids of the opportunity to learn these skills, and takes from teachers the opportunity to teach. One of the barriers is money - cities and towns rely on funding from the state to support their schools, and that funding has been insufficient for too long.
- Relief from student debt. Students who graduate from a Massachusetts high school should be able to attend community college or a vocational school for free. Schools of public higher education must reduce their administrative costs by at least 10%, and must aim for year over year reductions in tuition and fees, not continued increases. The Commonwealth must implement programs for relief of onerous student debt.
Health Care
Families and businesses struggle every year under higher and higher healthcare costs. There are a lot of reasons why this happens, but the biggest cause is rising prices. That's right, health care is getting more expensive because the people who sell it keep raising their prices. And the biggest players in this manipulation of the market are the big hospital systems.
Giant hospital systems are gobbling up hospitals across the state – nearly 75% of the market is under the control of these systems. We believe these monopolistic systems, which use their power to push through the price hikes that lead to skyrocketing premiums for consumers, must be stopped, plain and simple.
The second part of our plan is to create a fee schedule that applies equally to all hospitals. Higher-quality and more specialized hospitals should, logically, be paid more for the service they provide. But in a system driven by market clout, the differences between hospitals in big systems and those that are not are often too great for those smaller hospitals to even stay in business. Eliminating this kind of distortion in the market – even if only saves 5% of health care costs – would save two billion dollars a year.
Third, we should accelerate the shift of health care risk to providers, as a way to truly align financial incentives with providing high quality care. Incentives in our current system are geared towards filling beds, doing diagnostic testing, and delivering care that is often highly fragmented. Prevention, coordination of care, and providing the right care to each and every patient ought to be at the center of how our health care system is designed. Without fundamental changes to the economics of our system, these purposes will continue to be frustrated.
Housing and Thriving Communities
Building lots of homes creates jobs, increases tax revenue, and if done right, helps build thriving neighborhoods. Massachusetts lacks a comprehensive vision for developing neighborhoods, and empowering cities and towns with the resources they need to create new economic opportunities and support the growth of the middle class.
It is time to enact long-overdue zoning reform that would empower communities to design and develop modern neighborhoods and middle class homes being built. Significant increases in local aid – particularly in funding for education – will make it in the financial interests of cities and towns to build denser, walkable, neighborhoods near transit. A more regional approach to planning, tied to the creation of a state Office for Commonwealth Development, would ensure that planning and investment in transportation, economic development, housing and other areas are coordinated with private investments in a way that serves the public interest.
We have proposed a Thriving Communities Action Plan, which details the specific ways in which these important and practical goals can be fulfilled.
We are at a crossroads when it comes to our education system, and there is a critical opportunity to build our future educational system while improving our current one.
First, we must revise the Chapter 70 funding formula to reflect the reality of educating students in the second decade of the 21st century. Rising healthcare costs, greater special education needs, and increased use of technology and many other factors have made educating students more expensive - but funding has not kept pace.
Second, our leaders must lead and provide a serious dialogue and concrete plan of action on re-imagining our educational system. Students need math and science, but they also need civics and history, language and creative arts. More than this, they need the 21st century skills that will serve them throughout their lives, no matter what profession they go into. Skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, determination and grit – these difficult-to-teach skills ought to be central to our educational system.
Charter schools are part of the educational landscape, and parents must have the ability to choose where to send their children to school. With that said, funding rules can leave traditional public schools worse off financially when students leave for a charter school. Fixing the rules so that traditional public schools are not made worse off if a student leaves is critical so that students, families and teachers are not pitted against each other.
Although Massachusetts was once rightfully called "Taxachusetts," taxes have been reduced in recent decades and today the story is different.
- Massachusetts state and local taxes are just below the national average.
- The state's income tax is one of the lower rates in the country among the 41 states that have an income tax.
- The income tax rate in Massachusetts has been cut from an average of 6.3% in the 1990s to 5.15% today.
The tax system in Massachusetts is generally regressive – people with lower incomes pay more of their income in taxes than people at the higher ends. This is because while our income tax system is progressive in its effect (because of deductions and exemptions and tax credits), once sales taxes and property taxes are taken into account, the overall system is regressive.
Political debates about taxes focus on high taxes vs. low taxes. Instead we should focus on creating a vision for what we want our tax code to accomplish. Our tax code must fund our government in ways that are as efficient as possible, and geared to a modern economy. Unfortunately, today's tax code, with its roots in a 1915 constitutional requirement for a "flat tax" does not have the flexibility to address a 21st century economy. We support amending the state constitution to repeal this amendment.
Voters don't feel they're getting a good value for their taxes, so it is critical for our elected leaders to earn that confidence, through the kind of disciplined, line-by-line, zero-based budgeting approach we call for. In the meantime, we must begin to build a more modern tax code. Taxes should be progressive – those who earn less should pay less than those who earn more. For example, a 1% surtax on income over $1 million would generate hundreds of millions of dollars in new tax revenue that could be used for important priorities like ensuring all veterans have jobs and a home, that seniors have the services they need, that student debt is minimized, that the MBTA and regional transit systems actually work, making sure every business that needs skilled workers can find them, and other important priorities that today do not get the funding they need.
Higher Education
Once it was possible for many students and their families to pay for college. Today, students graduate with often crippling debt, and enter a job market where it is difficult to earn enough to pay back loans and save; where home prices are increasingly out of reach; and where in very meaningful ways they end up being able to aspire to a lower standard of living than what their parents aspired to. Reducing the rate of interest on this massive debt helps, but it isn't enough.
A four-year degree is valuable for many people, but not everyone wants to pursue that path. Many students want a community college or vocational education, but our system pushes students in one direction. The state should pay for the tuition and fees for any graduate of a Massachusetts high school to get a community college or vocational education. This is an investment in the future of people in our state.
The cost of public higher education must also be seriously controlled. Massive increases in money-making student loans have backed massive spending at colleges and universities for construction of new buildings and hiring of highly-paid administrators. Rather than simply pushing these costs onto students, the state must take an active role in reducing the cost of higher education. The leaders at state-supported colleges and universities must be tasked with much more than simply slowing the increase of tuition and fees, and instead with reducing those tuitions and fees. Tying executive compensation at these institutions to success in cost reductions is an important part of this effort. Our goal should be nothing less than an educational system in Massachusetts that makes it possible for every student to graduate with little or no debt.
Transportation / Infrastructure
The 2015 collapse of MBTA service was the predictable result of decades of underinvestment in our transportation infrastructure and of poor management. Multiple reports have documented these failings, but strategies to actually deal with the problem have not been implemented. A vision of a modern transportation system that recognizes the critical importance of public transit in supporting a 21st century economy is needed. This includes much more than just the MBTA, but also roads and bridges across the state, and regional transit authorities.
For example, in western Massachusetts, new passenger rail service from Springfield to Hartford can strengthen the economy and cultural vibrancy of the region, but only if decisions on transit are not viewed in a vacuum. In Connecticut, rail service planning includes ensuring bus connections to local communities are in place and leverage this public investment to support growth in cities and towns along the rail line. This type of regional, transit-oriented planning and development would benefit communities in Massachusetts.
The MBTA has to be fixed. The Legislature should restore direct control over the MBTA by the Secretary of Transportation and the Governor, and empower them to take the steps necessary to make the MBTA work. A plan must be implemented to address the billions of dollars in service backlogs and repairs, which could include moving debt currently on the books of the MBTA onto the Commonwealth, or otherwise refinancing that debt to reduce the amount of money spent on debt service. One way or another, additional funding will be required to address these critical needs if we are going to avoid another collapse of the system.
The Secretary of Transportation should also appoint an independent Accountability Task Force. The purpose of this group will be to conduct open hearings and private investigations of management and labor practices at the MBTA. The task force should be empowered to receive confidential and anonymous testimony and to otherwise encourage honest reporting on practices at the MBTA. The task force would investigate all such reports and report regularly to the Secretary and the public, not with a view to providing reliable information on the good, the bad, and the ugly of what is happening in that agency. Serious reform requires confronting difficult challenges, and a transparent and independent view into the MBTA will facilitate this kind of change.
Small Business
Helping small businesses grow and prosper should be the driving force behind the state's economic development efforts. Small businesses are what drive growth in a modern economy, and reducing the cost of living and the cost of doing business will drive growth for those businesses. In addition, state government has an important role to play in ensuring that broadband internet access is available in all communities across the Commonwealth,
In addition, an exemption should be created for businesses with less than $5 million in taxable income that would result in them paying 10% less tax than businesses with a higher taxable income.
Massachusetts is overly reliant on natural gas, which leaves families and businesses especially vulnerable to price spikes and supply disruptions. Some say the best solution is to double-down on our existing problems by building more natural gas capacity and pipelines. We believe there is a better way, more aligned with short-term needs and long-term realities.
Massachusetts has been a leader in the development and deployment of renewable energy. Our standards for renewable energy purchases by utility companies should be increased from the current target of 15% to a new target of 25%. Combined with increases in net metering and related supports, installation of more solar and wind generating capacity can provide needed additional capacity to drive down energy prices. For the foreseeable future, we will need base load generating capacity, and natural gas plants are ideally suited for this purpose. In these circumstances, building more renewable generating capacity will make it possible for our existing gas infrastructure to better serve our needs.
Over the longer term, the future of energy generation is in people making their own power at home, sharing it over local grids, and storing it in local batteries. While not all of the technology exists to run this kind of generating system on a large scale, the direction is clear. State regulators must be working with utility companies and others to ensure that our power grid is preparing for this future.
Climate Change
Climate change is real, and we must respond to it.
First, we must harden our infrastructure to ensure it is resilient enough to withstand stronger and more frequent storms, as well as other natural and man-made disasters.
Second, we must reduce our reliance on fossil fuels – particularly natural gas – by pursuing aggressive goals to generate more than 25% of the state's energy from renewable sources by 2020. A diverse mix of energy sources – such as wind and solar – is a critical part of responsible planning given the environmental, political and other uncertainties this century brings.
Massachusetts veterans have bravely served us around the world. We have to make sure that our policy-making matches with the same level of enthusiastic support for vets that you see on holidays like Veterans Day and Memorial Day.
For example, we must ensure that veterans have access to health care, jobs, education or job training, and housing as a way to fulfill our obligation to them and show our gratitude. Ensuring they have access to the services veterans need and deserve should not be on the negotiating table.
We must do more to help heal the mental and physical wounds of war.
Campaign Finance
With the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision, limits on the influence of big money in political campaigns were largely swept away. This influence is undermining the principle of one-person-one-vote, and eroding trust in our democratic process.
We believe the U.S. Constitution must be amended to overturn Citizens United. There are only two ways to do that. One is for Congress to pass a proposed amendment - something which is very unlikely to happen. The second way is for 2/3 of states to pass legislation calling for a constitutional convention. Already four states have called for a convention for this purpose. We believe Massachusetts should join these states and take a leadership role in this issue.
In the meantime, we can still act.
Public funding of elections is, in this environment, a necessity. Any candidate who makes the ballot must have access to sufficient public resources to support a viable campaign. For example, a candidate for state legislature can, for a few thousand dollars, run an effective campaign. Public funding can be in the form of a basic grant to the candidate committee and also a significant match, for example 5:1 or 10:1 for money raised by the candidate. Public financing will not provide enough money to match the amount of money raised by well-financed candidates, but providing enough funding from public sources will at least give candidates a fair shot. In a time when a majority of state legislators run unopposed, supports like these are necessary to kick-start competition in our political marketplace.
Our schools, businesses and other places open to the public need to be accessible to everyone, period. Employers must provide reasonable accommodations for all who require them, and do more to ensure that children with learning disabilities are able to get the kind of education that will help them as they develop and grow.
We believe workers have a right to join unions, and to use those organizations to negotiate their pay. The kind of hard bargaining that happens on both sides of a labor-management negotiation may not always be the easiest thing in the world, but is how the process is supposed to work.
In the case of public-sector unions, the question of whether an employer has unionized workers does not relieve the employer or the workers from providing the kind of high quality services taxpayers expect. When there is a breakdown in the delivery of high-quality service, both management and workers must be held accountable.
Reproductive Health
We are pro-choice.
Women must have access to the full range of reproductive health services, whether primary care, birth control, reproductive health care or cancer screenings.
People over 65
So many people over 65 have worked hard their whole lives, played by the rules, and now find a new set of unexpected challenges. According to AARP, over 90% of adults 65 and over want to "age in place" in their own homes and neighborhoods. Many would like to downsize into a smaller home or apartment but find few options. Our plan for construction of middle class housing will help meet this important need.
Some 70% of seniors will need some sort of long-term care, care that can cost as much as $100,000 per year, and for which few people have insurance. Today, Medicaid often is the source of coverage for long-term care needs – but only after a person has exhausted their savings and other assets. We propose a Long Term Care Insurance Pool. Through this model every taxpayer in Massachusetts would be required to pay a $5 a month premium into the pool, with the state matching this amount. The money in that pool would be off-limits except to pay for the cost of long-term care for people in Massachusetts.
Equal means equal – for everyone. We are committed to ensuring the law applies equally to all and that everyone's civil rights are protected.
We will also work hard to eliminate the discrimination, bullying, and demeaning of people based on sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression.
The Arts
Artisans of all kinds drive economic growth by making our communities into something more than just places with a predictable collection of shops and restaurants. By bringing their individuality and creativity, they transform communities into places where something is "going on," where interesting, unpredictable and unexpected things are created and happen.
The creative arts also must play a more important role in the way we educate our kids. It is important to learn the skills that a STEM-based curriculum teaches, but the greatest set of tools we can give students are the skills of critical thinking, independence, resilience and "grit" – the belief that they can overcome any obstacle they face. The creative arts are one of the most powerful ways to teach students these skills. We strongly support efforts to transform STEM to STEAM.
Criminal Justice
Decades of "tough on crime" approaches to criminal justice haven't worked. The root causes of the problem – all of the social and economic and educational problems that lead to crime – must be dealt with directly and strategically.
The "war on drugs" has been a failure. It is the next governor's job to re-frame this discussion, as well as take immediate action to fix our broken sentencing, parole, probation and bail systems. To do this we must apply existing data and evidence-based solutions to reduce recidivism, ease re-entry into communities, and extend educational and economic opportunities to eliminate the pathway that can sometimes lead young people to crime.
Discrimination against women is still very much a part of the landscape. Our lawmakers, and our society as a whole, must do much more to combat pay inequity, discrimination in the workplace, sexual harassment, and physical intimidation or abuse.
Women are paid less than men, even if you can argue about the what the specific pay gap is (77 cents? 91 cents? Either way, it's unacceptable). Some of this gap is because of illegal discrimination; some of it has to do with career choices driven by inadequate childcare options (with women often the default caregiver for kids); and some of it has to do with social norms about the kind of work women "should" do.
Fixing this problem starts with confronting the uncomfortable reality that it exists. An important step would be to provide much-needed funding for childcare and early childhood education programs. Services like these improve the lives and futures of the kids they serve, and would make an important difference in the lives and financial futures of women. It's a tremendous opportunity for the growth of our economy. We risk missing out on if we don't start to do things differently.
In addition, there is an opportunity to leverage the creativity and resources of the private sector by creating, in tandem with state government, a "Workplace Equality Seal of Approval" which businesses could earn. This would demonstrate established fair pay standards, active and continuing efforts to educate personnel on sexual harassment and physical intimidation, and their work to ensure equality of opportunity in their workplace. Businesses that contract with state should be required to earn this seal.
Today, Americans have a 2nd amendment right to own firearms, and our government struggles to figure out the best way to regulate that right.
But here's the hard question that has to be raised: In the 21st century, is the 2nd Amendment - especially the way it is being interpreted by the Supreme Court - compatible with a modern society?
It's time to have that hard conversation, and to talk openly and honestly about how we can better balance the rights of sportsmen and those who want to protect themselves in their own homes, with the horrible reality of how easy it is for bad people to carry out mass killings.
It is possible that in 2016, voters will repeal the prohibition on marijuana in Massachusetts via ballot initiative. Under these circumstances, lawmakers must begin serious discussions on key questions regarding taxation, regulation, barring underage use, and strengthening public health and education efforts.
Because so many people in our Commonwealth have been affected by the illegal market for marijuana, as the legal market develops, we have a particular responsibility to not only maintain careful oversight of this industry, but direct a portion of today's proceeds toward common-sense, needed services - including job training and programs to assist reintegration for people previously incarcerated for drug-related offenses.

/// Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special Breaks Records
With day-and-date broadcasts in some 94 countries on six continents (no one wanted the Antarctica contract, apparently) on Saturday, the BBC's 50th anniversary episode of Doctor Who set an official Guiness record for most simulcasts ever, and it also managed to log the most viewers for a single program in the history of the BBC America. In the network's target demo—25-54-year-olds—the show garnered 1.2 million viewers. Not bad for 2:50 on a Saturday afternoon. The episode of the long-running time-traveling sci-fi series, in which everyone who'd ever played the Doctor appears (some in the form of rerun footage, granted), also screened in 11 cities during the airtime via mini-distributor NCM Fathom. The screening, in 3D, got an encore performance in some 300 cinemas the next day and is still playing this evening . The event was billed as the first meeting between the last two Doctors—the same character as interpreted (quite differently) by previous Doctor David Tennant and the current model, Matt Smith. The blowout doubtless cost the BBC a pretty penny, but it did well domestically for the British network, too. Some 10.61 million Brits tuned in—not quite the most viewers of the evening, with competition reality show Strictly Come Dancing edging it out—making it a banner evening for the Beeb, as well. (The program hasn't done as well on the airwaves since it got a spit-shine from showrunner Russell T

CPN-UML chairperson KP Sharma Oli has left for Singapore on Tuesday for his further health check up.
The UML chair boarded a Thai Airways plane at 1.45 pm today. He will reach Singapore via Bangkok.
Oli declined to speak to journalists at Tribhuvan International Airport before leaving for Singapore.
According to the UML central committee member Rajan Bhattarai, Oli will receive medical treatment at the National University Hospital in Singapore as per the doctors' advice. He said Oli's itinerary had to be arranged in a hurry as the doctors at the hospital fixed Wednesday for an appointment.
It is estimated that Oli's treatment will take a week. He is going for further treatment as the swelling in his infected right hand has not abated. Bhattarai said Oli had no other health problem besides this.
Minister for Energy Radha Gyawali, Minister for Industries Karna Bahadur Thapa and leader Keshav Badal, among others, were present at the airport to see off the party chair.
Oli is accompanied by his spouse Radhika Shakya and an aide Rajesh Bajracharya.
Meanwhile, party chair Oli has assigned vice chairperson Bamdev Gautam to officiate as the party chairperson in his absence. Gautam is the senior-most vice cjhairperson of the party and he has been given the responsibility of the officiating chairperson in keeping with the tradition, according to party leader Keshav Badal.

Apologies for no recap Sunday night (Sept. 1), "Big Brother 15" fans. Some Labor Day weekend kitchen labor kept us away from TV. But we're here for you today with a recap of the fallout after the latest Head of Household competition.
HOH Competition
When we last left the HOH comp, houseguests were moving eggs through a chicken wire fence and hopping them over to a carton — first person with 12 wins. Now, before the live show cut off, Andy and GM had two eggs apiece and that took about four minutes during a commercial, so we don't think this HOH takes a terribly long time.
In the end, GM (who probably has the smallest fingers in the house) pulls out a win. The popular thinking (for everyone who is not named McCrae or Amanda) is that McCrae and Amanda will be nominated this week since neither one of them won HOH.
It would've been more interesting if Andy had won, because Amanda thinks he's still in her pocket, but we don't think he is. It's a moot point, anyway. GM's loyalty is to the Exterminators and Elissa right now.
Post-HOH Comp
Now, the immediate aftermath of GM's win is that Amanda was following her around like a puppy for pretty much the entire time between HOH win and the nomination ceremony. The show conveys that, but not nearly to the extent that it was actually happening. Amanda was, like, stalking GM, continually either encouraging her to get out Elissa as revenge for Aaryn, or just trashing Elissa.
The Exterminators celebrating in the storage room is pretty delightful. Did anybody think at the start of the summer that Andy/GM/Judd/Spencer had a shot at the final four? Nope. And it's even better once Spencer and Judd have to wear their chicken suits for coming in last place in the HOH competition.
Meanwhile, Amanda keeps at it with GM, saying that if she targets Judd and Elissa, no one will be mad at her. GM nods her head and smiles, but we all know it's B.S.
When GM gets her HOH room reveal, Amanda is mad that Elissa is being so nice to GinaMarie, which is hilarious since Amanda hasn't left GM alone since the comp ended.
Later, downstairs Amanda, Elissa, Spencer and Andy are sitting in the living room and this is where Amanda loses her mind again. Elissa says that she thinks Jessie was the only 10 in the house, which she knows is something that will push Amanda's buttons. But Amanda just pulls her typical profanity-laden tirades. One thing the show does not show you is that Amanda yells out, "Bye, Elissa! Go lock yourself in your HOH — oh, stop, you can't do
that anymore! … You f***ing say back-handed things, you think I can't
f***ing stand up for myself? … I hope America sees what this f***ing c*** sits here and does."
Does Amanda think she's a 10? Is that the crux of the issue? That someone she purportedly hates to the core doesn't think she's a 10? *sigh*
Amanda mistakenly thinks that she's going to walk out of the house and America is going to wonder why Elissa was being so mean to "poor, innocent" Amanda. The lack of self-awareness on these people is oftentimes staggering.
Speaking of which, Amanda says Elissa has a God complex. Hello pot? This is kettle. You're black.
Amanda is trying to milk the victim card to GM for all its worth, but thankfully GM is not buying any of it.
Luxury Competition
There's a balloon-popping competition for $10,000 and in explaining it, Amanda gets a dig in at her boyfriend and how much money he makes. Real classy. Anyway, Spencer is the first person to find the 1, 0 and K chips, which means he wins the money. Later on the live feeds, they mention about how he's got 10K and $13,000 from his stipend, so now we know how much money they get to play the game if they're gone all summer.
GinaMarie hilariously decides she's just going to try to avoid Amanda all afternoon, as Amanda desperately tries to get her time with GM to try to work her "magic." It's so funny how much Amanda does NOT have a handle on the house this week. She thinks everyone will be enraged if Elissa is not on the block. Um, no, lady — the house will be enraged if YOU are not on the block. Read a room, girl.
When it comes to the nomination ceremony, GM pulls Andy, Andy pulls Spencer, Spencer pulls Elisa and Amanda starts looking like she just pooped her pants. Then Elissa pulls Judd and it's fantastic.
In her speech, GM can't get the word "dynamic" out of her mouth and remember that for later. But either way, Amanda starts crying and it's awesome. Yeah, you can't control the house all summer and be a total a-hole and expect to make it to the end. You can control the house, but you have to be loved and charismatic (i.e. Dan or Dr. Will). You can't rampage around like a mean elephant (and never win anything) and expect to stick around.
Tune in Wednesday for the POV ceremony, or just follow along with the live feeds to watch for yourself. They've been pretty great lately.

New Sannyasin, Kaivalyanathaswami,
Initiated by Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami
Yesterday was the auspicious day of Vaikasi Vishakam. It is one of the most holy days of the year, especially dedicated to Lord Muruga and spiritual initiations.
After over 45 years of exemplary selfless service to the Kailasa Paramaparai, having reached beyond the age of 72, and after having been a Yogi Tapasvin for the last six years, Yogi Jothinatha was reborn as Kaivalyanathaswami. Bodhinatha gave him Sannyas diksha early in the morning yesterday in a traditional ceremony with only the swamis present. The auspicious day finished with a very powerful Vaikasi Vishakam Muruga abhishekam and puja in the evening.
We quote here from the inspiring text of the Holy Orders of Sannyas (click to read on line)
SCRIPTURES PROCLAIM that candidates for sannyas must be of a sattvic nature and possess a natural purity. They must be one-pointed and tranquil. Sankara's Crest Jewel of Discrimination states: "He alone may be considered qualified to seek the Absolute who has discrimination, whose mind is turned away from all enjoyments, who possesses tranquility and the kindred virtues, and who feels a longing for liberation... Longing for liberation is the will to be free from the fetters forged by ignorance--beginning with the ego-sense and so on, down to the physical body itself--through the realization of one's true nature... Be devoted to Brahman and you will be able to control your senses. Control your senses and you will gain mastery over your mind. Master your mind and the sense of ego will be dissolved. In this manner, the yogi achieves an unbroken realization of the joy of Brahman. Therefore, let the seeker strive to give his heart to Brahman... The fruit of dispassion is illumination. The fruit of illumination is the stilling of desire. The fruit of stilled desire is experience of the bliss of the Atman, whence flows all peace."
Candidates must have reached their twenty-fourth year and have begun their training for sannyas before age twenty-five, or have entered the sannyas ashram after age seventy-two.
Together he and the satguru symbolically conduct his antyesti samskara, the ritual funeral rites, to betoken the death of the personal self and the birth of the spiritual being. He places the remnants of personal identity, hair, clothing, pulnool or sacred thread and all desires for wealth, progeny and fame into the homa fire, beseeching the permission of Lord Ganesha and heeding the path of Lord Muruga, vowing aloud his renunciation thus: "All that I have and all that I am I now give unto my God, my Gods and my guru. I have no family except the Divine Father Siva and Mother Sakti who dwell in Kailas and on Earth the sangam of Saivite devotees. I have no home except the stillness of Being. I have no possessions except my faith and dedication. I have no desires except my desire to serve and to realize God." The candidate then says aloud three times, "I, wishing for mukti, take refuge in this sacred Order and in God Siva, who created the world, who breathed out the Vedas. The purpose of my life is to cultivate dispassion, to become pure, to attain union with God Siva and be immersed in Divine Love. I do fully and of my own volition accept these Holy Orders of Sannyas, now and for the remainder of my life, and bind myself in the fulfillment thereof to the ancient Order of sannyas, to my satguru, to my Saivite Hindu faith and to the devas, the Mahadevas and Lord Siva Himself. I am the Atman, the non-dual Parasiva, pure and free."
So saying, the renunciate walks unclad seven steps around the homa fire, returning to kneel at the guru's feet. He is thereafter dead to the world. The satguru then whispers the Panchakshara Mantra in the candidate's right ear three times, along with personal instructions for meditation.
Kaivalyanathaswami took his three vows of sannyas: Renunciation, Purity, ObedienceAnd we read aloud Yogaswami's from Natchintanai:
Hail, O sannyasin, love's embodiment!
Does any power exist apart from love?
Diffuse thyself throughout the happy world.
Let painful maya cease and ne'er return!
Day and night give praise unto the Lord.
Pour forth a stream of songs
To melt the very stones.
Attain the sight where night is not nor day.
See Siva everywhere, and rest in bliss.
Live without interest in worldly gain.
Here, as thou hast ever been, remain.
Then never will cruel sorrow venture nigh.

From Our Gurus' Teachings
- Gurudeva's Master Course Lesson of the Day
Bodhinatha's Latest Upadeshas:
"Saivite Beliefs; Religion is Three Worlds in Communication " (February 20,2017)
In our teachings we're both monistic and theistic. In the beliefs of Saivism the idea of the three worlds is the basis and key to understanding temple worship, theism. The inner worlds are there to help you. The essence of the soul is already the same as the essence of God Siva, monism. You just have to find it.

BLOGOSPHERE — In what major bloggers see as a defining moment for bottom-up journalism, major bloggers warned yesterday that the universe itself may be a clever forgery.
The controversy began in a late-night entry on PhiloBlog.com, where a poster identified only as "Duckhead" challenged the notion that any kind of objective reality exists at all.
"What is reality anyway?" the entry read in part. "Reality is what is filtered through our senses. Maybe what you see as red, I see as blue. Maybe what tastes like Mountain Dew to me tastes like Pespi to you."
Within minutes over two dozen major bloggers had picked up on the post, including Jason Kottke of Kottke.org and Rob Malda (aka CmdrTaco) of Slashdot.
"This makes a lot of sense to me," wrote Kottke. "The nonexistence of absolute truth may very well explain us to ourselves."
Citing the works of deconstructionist philosophers such as Jacques Derrida and Barbara Johnson, Kottke revealed further flaws in the assumption of an empirically verifiable reality.
"Everything we experience is, ultimately, a construction of our minds," he wrote, "and thus the universe and everything in it is also a construction."
But Malda took a more practical approach in his post, listing phenomena only comprehensible if Duckhead's theory is true.
"I understand everything now," wrote Malda. "I've always been baffled by the existence of such things as genocide, child abuse, Freddie Prinz Jr. and Glitter: The Mariah Carey Story, but if it's right that these things are just figments of our — possibly demented — imaginations, everything becomes clear."
Less than an hour after major bloggers latched onto the story it appeared on Matt Drudge's The Drudge Report, and from there it was soon picked up by mainstream media outlets, including CBS, ABC, NBC and CNN.
Empiricists were scrambling this morning to counter the claims made by Duckhead.
"Come on. Empiricism is the foundation of all modern civilization," said renowned physicist Stephen Hawking. "Everything we know about the world around us demonstrates that our reality is more or less aligned with that of others. Unless you're psychotic or Rush Limbaugh or something."
In a rare show of unity theologians joined scientists in denouncing the blog post.
"God created the universe for us to enjoy," said Dr Marcus Hennman, associate professor of philosophy and philosophical theology at Talbot School of Theology in La Mirada, CA. "Scripture teaches over and over that the physical world, flawed as it may be, is very much objectively real."
But such statements did not calm the storm currently swirling through the blogosphere.
By noon EST today many major bloggers, including Glenn Reynolds of InstaPundit.com, were calling into question God's prior knowledge of the true nature of the reality.
"We have to ask: 'What did God know, and when did he know it?'" Reynolds wrote. "If it's true that God made us in such a way that the vast majority of people are living a gigantic illusion then I think he has no other options but to step down."
"That's if God himself isn't a fraudulent construction of our psyches," he added.
God did not immediately return prayerful requests for comment.
But, noted Reynolds, "whatever happens in the days and weeks to follow, this is a defining moment for bottom-up journalism."Powered by Sidelines

You were the one who did it to me, no?
You were the one who started it ... no?
weren't you the one who did it first, no?
Why am I the one here, why do I have to be alone?
Nothing here apart from lies and the filthy way you used me, Just go...
Your not welcome to me anymore! not after you did this to me.
I thought we used to be close, no?
I thought you were family now... no?
I guess I thought wrong since your not my soul mate.
I guess I heard you wrong when you said I was the one and only.
Aren't I the only talented one?
maybe shes good but I can still tell people what happened.
I can still tell people how you did it.
I can tell people how you ...
Chose her for job and I pushed her out the window!
I can just tell them the truth. You cheated on me.
Face the truth. Its over.

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon toured several decimated sites in Gaza on Tuesday, including the remains of the U.N. compound in Gaza City destroyed last Thursday in an attack. The Israeli shelling of the compound has drawn strong international criticism—not the least of which came from Ban himself both before and during Tuesday's visit.
"It is an outrageous and totally unacceptable attack on the United Nations," Mr Ban said, the warehouse still smouldering behind him.
"There must be a full investigation, a full explanation to make sure it never happens again. There should be accountability through a proper judiciary system.
"I have protested many times. I am today protesting again in the strongest terms. I have asked [for a] full investigation and [to] make those responsible people accountable.''
Israel has claimed it attacked the coumpound because militants were firing rockets from inside. The claim was dismissed as "nonsense'' by John Ging, the chief UN official in Gaza.

The Impact Of Parental Health On Child Labor. Evidence From Bangladesh
Using data for Bangladesh we find evidence of added worker effects resulting from father's health problems on both children's and (to a lesser extent) spouse's labor supply. In particular, when illness is short-lived or if treatment is required (when there are "health shocks") children's participation tends to increase. Our results suggest that income replacement through sickness benefit could significantly reduce child labor.

Andy Warhol once said that one of the greatness of the United States was a consumption tradition that did not distinguish among social classes. "The richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest," he said, stressing the fact that US food marketing was capable of generating products with a universal appeal. This vision, somehow forecasting the upcoming globalization phenomenon, could serve as a clear precedent of the changes in food production and consumption that the world has witnessed in these past few decades. Not because it has involved a food democratization process necessarily, but because more and more countries have progressively welcomed a model that, through integrating into international markets, relies on ultra-processed products, leaves aside the nutritional value of food, sacrifices traditional forms of production and often translates into large amounts of food waste.
It is the case of Latin America and the Caribbean, a region largely capable of producing above the needs of its population. According to the Panorama of Food and Nutritional Security in Latin America and the Caribbean, a recent publication by FAO and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), overweight now affects about 58% of people in the region. This is roughly 360 million people, of whom 140 (23%) are obese. Interpreting this data requires caution –we are talking about a large and diverse region, with a great number of disparities between nations. However, it is clear that there is a progressive and worrying trend towards overweight throughout the whole area. It has affected more than half the population of all countries except Haiti (38.5%), Paraguay (48.5%) and Nicaragua (49.9%). At the top of the list are the Bahamas, Mexico and Chile, with 69, 64 and 63% respectively.
The causes of this progression can be found in new feeding and food production patterns that are present, to a greater or lesser extent, in all the countries of the region. Moreover, in line with what Warhol said when he talked about consumption accessibility, these products and the eating behaviors they promote are no longer limited to high-income households. In fact, middle- and low-income countries have also experienced, and at a greater speed, substantial changes in their diet, in what could be described as a general tendency, a mainstreaming of values that affects all stages of food production and consumption. Thus, overweight is no longer an exclusive feature of the richest, but it is the rich countries that lead the trend. The Bahamas, for instance, which is the third country in per capita income in the region, not only presents the highest percentage of obesity in adults, it is also one of the countries with the highest prevalence of overweight in children.
In a dramatic contrast, however, hunger does prevail among the poor. 34 million people in Latin America and the Caribbean still do not have access to the food they need. Hardly 850 km separate the Bahamas from Haiti, its counterpart, which has become the world's most malnourished country with 53 percent of its population underfed. The percentage worsens when we look at women and children, especially in rural areas. "This is where governments need to focus their efforts," says Eve Crowley, Deputy Regional Representative for Latin America and the Caribbean.

Many of us, at our jobs, before we ever begin planning a meeting, sit down and develop the strategic plan. What is the objective of this program? Who is our audience? Why are we doing it? What do we want to accomplish?
The ICPA Board and staff, along with a few of our members and hospitality partners, recently spent a day together asking ourselves similar questions about ICPA. Where are we as an association? Where do we want to be? And most importantly, what three to five strategic initiatives must we accomplish in the next 12 to 36 months in order to get there?
The following four critical initiatives were identified: rebranding/marketing, membership, education, and sponsorship. Within each initiative, we developed a preliminary timeline of objectives we need to reach for us to move the association forward. This is a daunting task — one that the Board and staff, frankly, cannot handle alone. Committees will be formed to assist us in refining and ultimately achieving these initiatives.
The topic of branding rose to the top of our objectives as we realized that, in order to achieve our goals, we need our members and future members to know that we are the preferred association for all insurance and financial services conference planners.
Rebranding ICPA is a critical issue that would involve significant change. It will require input from both our members and hospitality partners. The strategic team unanimously agreed that in order to move the association forward, we must revisit the name of the association. To appeal to financial services planners, we must show that we are not just an insurance association! We will be soliciting your feedback and we will conduct a member vote before any changes are made.
Simply stated, we need to strengthen membership to remain a viable, financially secure organization and to provide value to our hospitality partners by giving them business opportunities through our members. We need to identify new member prospects and retain our current membership. A membership committee is being formed to assist us in this huge task and to help develop specific, measurable goals.
To attract and retain members, we must offer top-notch educational programs that appeal to new members as well as veterans, insurance planners and financial services planners, and our hospitality partners. An education committee will assist us and provide guidance to all of our programs. We also need to use technology to offer additional educational opportunities such as webinars. This will provide us the opportunity to address hot topics as they arise.
We recognize that in addition to providing value to our planner members, we must provide value to the hospitality partners who support us. We need fair and equitable representation from the hospitality community. Therefore, the entire sponsorship program is being reviewed with the goal of developing a process that is fair to all, while helping ICPA remain fiscally stable. To this end, the selection process for the annual meeting, as well as the hotel chain allotment, will be re-examined, with no changes taking place before 2006.
Please Share Your Input
While I have outlined the highlights, we are developing measurable targets and desired outcomes for each initiative. As the plan is further developed, we will be posting this information on the ICPA Web site. I encourage all of our members and hospitality partners to share their input and ideas on these topics. While we acknowledge that there may be other areas needing attention, keep in mind it is necessary for us to prioritize and tackle the most significant issues first. Please forward your input to me or ICPA Executive Director Steve Bova ([email protected] [3]). We encourage you to get involved with these initiatives.
Best regards,

Dispute Over "Miracle in Cell No.7" Profit
The production
Apparently there has been dispute about the profits between the productions that co-produced "Miracle in Cell No.7".
According to the news, production house "A" sued production house "B" for 4.6 biliion won.
"Miracle in Cell No.7" recorded 91.4 billion won in accumulated profits and "B" was given 13.4 billion of it.
The dispute started when "A" asked "B" for half of the profits from the movie according to the contract of partnership.
"B" claims "A" completed planning and writing the scenario for "Miracle in Cell No.7" from 2007 to 2010 but suffered a loss when the previous project suffered a loss. The movie was only started on when "B" linked with "A" through a major shareholder.
As evidence, the opening and ending credit of the movie shows "A" and "B" lined up together.
However, "B" denies signing a contract of partnership and that "A" was only listed on the credits for "helping out" with the production of the movie. It claims that it didn"t carry out any terms and conditions of a contract and that the chairman of the company himself did things on his own qualifications.
The justice court says, ""A" and "B" both have the rights to the movie tied by a contract of partnership. "B" should put forward half of the total profit to "A", not including incentives for the director and actors".
Meanwhile, main actor Ryoo Seung-ryong was paid 1.6 billion in profits and incentives while Jeong Jin-yeong received 520 million won. Park Shin-hye just got paid 30 million won.
