(Uruguay CNSAM). On September 14, 2013, the Church of the Nazarene was reopened in the city of Canelones on the Southern Uruguay District.
During the first months of the year, Estrella and Daniel Giordano arrived from Argentina and they accepted the challenge of reopening that church.
The church was inactive although it was one of those that had been in the country for more than 30 years. When Pastor Daniel saw the place where the church was located he said, "Aware of this we know that this house of God should be here for the community."
After the parsonage was renovated, the Giordano family moved in to begin working in the community. A couple of prayer groups were established while they waited for the renovation of the church building.
On September 14, 2013, the church was reopened with a time of celebration in which pastors and brethren from different parts of the Southern Uruguay District participated. Among those present were the District Superintendent, Rev. Jesús Bernat, and the zone leader, Rev. Adhemar Charlin, who led the installation service for the new pastoral family and also the consecration of the church building as a place that will be a blessing for the city. "We have a lot of work ahead of us but we know that God is interested in this community," said Pastor Charlin. In his message the District Superintendent, Rev. Jesús Bernat, said, "This door is once again open for the prodigal son to return home."

Perhaps unwittingly, the NFLPA didn't make a whole lot of friends among the franchise players in the league with last week's letter to commissioner Roger Goodell seeking an investigation of New Orleans' negotiations with "exclusive" franchise quarterback Drew Brees.
First reported by CBSSports.com, the letter suggests that the Saints
haven't bargained in good faith, and that perhaps Brees has been a
victim of his outspoken stance from last year's lockout. The problems
are that the Saints have made Brees competitive offers that would make
him one of the NFL's highest paid players, even if he hasn't signed
them yet, and that there are other franchise players whose negotiations
have gone far worse.
In essence, some of the franchise players or their representatives feel
the NFLPA has granted Brees a kind of "favored nation" status. "Nothing
against Drew, but he's kind of become (the union's) fair-haired boy,"
one franchise player noted. The agent for another of the franchise
players said the NFLPA is treating the New Orleans quarterback "like
some kind of a Messiah or something."
In fairness to Brees, it should be noted that he had nothing to do with
the union's letter, as the NFLPA continues to grasp at straws, but his
standing among some peers could be affected by it.
Of the 21 players designated as franchise free agents in the spring,
six of them, beyond Brees, remain unsigned. This week, Jacksonville
kicker Josh Scobee and agent Ken Harris said there haven't been any
negotiations with Jaguars officials in months. Scobee allowed that the
situation has been frustrating.
It's been more than a month since there were reports that Denver kicker
Matt Prater was close to a deal with the Broncos, but, again, no deal.
Tailbacks Ray Rice and Matt Forte, wide receiver Dwayne Bowe and
defensive end Cliff Avril are all without deals. Eight other franchise
players have signed just one-year tenders.
So it would seem there's been a lack of progress on more than just the
Brees front, yet the NFLPA has requested that Goodell look only into
his case. Little wonder some of the other players with either no deals
at all or just one-year tenders, are privately wondering why that is.

Diabetes and Dairy Products
Although milk was previously considered to have a negative impact on diabetes, new research suggests the complete opposite. Earlier research had linked bovine serum albumin (BSA), a cow's milk protein, to an increased risk of type 1 diabetes in susceptible children, particularly if cow's milk was introduced early to a baby's diet. However, subsequent studies have failed to identify a definite association between the cows' milk proteins and Type 1 diabetes, and it was not warranted to avoid cow's milk during childhood to reduce the risk.
Those with type 2 diabetes are recommended to follow a healthy balanced diet low in saturated fats, high in fiber and complex carbohydrates. Further recommendations were to reduce the intake of both alcohol and salt. Recent research has shown that dairy foods and milk can be protective against insulin resistance and diabetes in adults who are obese.
One study, the CARDIA study, showed that obese people who consumed more than 5 servings per day of dairy products had reduced the incidence of type 2 diabetes by up to 70% in comparison to those who had a diet much lower in dairy.
Another study which took 10 years to complete and involved more than 37,000 middle aged woman, also found that dairy intake was associated with the development and risk of type 2 diabetes. Again, those with the highest intake of dairy had a much lower risk rate compared to those with a low intake of dairy products in their diet. It was also found during this study that each extra serving of dairy was associated with a further 4% decrease in risk.
It is possibly the calcium in dairy products that is the important factor in reducing the risk of diabetes, and calcium has been shown to be associated with lower insulin resistance. Also, those with a higher intake of calcium have lower rates of obesity. One particular study found that by increasing the calcium intake in girls who are obese can be associated with a marked decrease in insulin resistance as well as body fat.
Recently, it has been suggested that low-fat dairy may also lower the risk of diabetes by increasing production of adiponectin. This hormone is involved in the metabolism of fat and blood sugar, and increased rates of adiponectin production have proven to improve the response of the body to insulin and to reduce the risk of developing diabetes.
A low GI (Glycemic Index) diet is highly recommended for diabetes patients, and milk has a low GI, which results in glucose being released at a much slower rate therefore helping to keep blood glucose levels constant. For even better results, plain yogurt and skimmed milk are even lower on the GI scale. A diet high in dairy and fruit, low in cereals and potatoes, has shown to be effective in improving sensitivity to insulin in patients over 65 years. A low-GI diet is important in helping to manage and maintain healthy blood glucose levels in those persons with type 2

As the Picatinny summer hires continue to wander around various buildings, perhaps they will now have more than an inkling as to how the arsenal is organized.
On July 13, 82 summer interns were taken on a tour of the installation. They were briefed on many activities at Picatinny and how the multitude of engineers and other professions make Picatinny function.
The facility tour was organized through the Executive Fellows office under the director of the Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC).
The purpose of the orientation day was "to familiarize the summer hires with the organic capabilities at ARDEC," said a member of the fellows office.
The tour included an overview of ARDEC by acting Deputy Director Henry Rand, who explained the hierarchy of command, detailing how ARDEC fits into the overall structure of the Army and the customers that are served.
Within the context of each subject, Rand conveyed the underlying mission of Picatinny: to help the warfighter.
"Everyday, we're making sure we provide essential support to the Soldier on the battlefield." he said.
Additionally, he mentioned that the average age of a Picatinny employee is 42. There has been a strong emphasis on recruiting younger employees.
Although the tour was for general orientation, the tour was also structured to give summer hires insight into the opportunities available at Picatinny.
The tour included the Prototype Integration Facility, including the Prototype Hardware Fabrication. The visit to the facility, which manufactures a number of equipment and parts for the Army, helped the interns understand how many Army supplies are made.
The hires also viewed manufacturing machines like the CVD STRIPPIT, which uses lasers to make alterations to material, as well as the TrumaBend V130, which bends sheet metal.
Along with witnessing the manufacturing process, the interns also got to see some finished products, such as ammo boxes, charging handles, and electrical boxes.
Interns also traveled to the Target Behavioral Response Laboratory (TBRL). Amy Rowland, a summer hire with Project Manager Soldier Weapons, cited the TBRL as her favorite stop on the tour. "It was interesting; it was a lot of fun," she said.
The TBRL, as the interns would soon learn, creates scenarios designed to test Soldiers. Lab employees design experiments to further understand human reaction to different circumstances.
Kevin Tevis, an ARDEC employee who works with Quality Engineering and System Assurance, described many research experiments.
On experiment seeks to determine whether brute force, stunning light, or loud noises best deter people from throwing rocks at vehicles.
Next was the Remote Weapons Branch. The group was briefed on the Commonly Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS), along with the work under way to improve the program.
The interns were allowed to operate the CROWS to mimic a Soldier's use of it.
Carissa Alza, an intern for Art Fire Control, said, "I thought it was really informative. I sort of knew Picatinny. My Dad works here, but it was great to see everything".

Is your house still feeling hot even with the air conditioning on? Or is it feeling stuffy and uncomfortable to stay in? Well, it might be time for you to get your home's air ducts cleaned. Duct Cleaning Toronto is here to help you with it.
We here at Duct Cleaning Toronto will be able to get your homes ventilation system all cleaned up and running smoothly in no time. We are a team of air conditioning and ventilation specialists dedicated to solving your ventilation problems all year round.
We use brushes, vacuums, and specialized blowers to completely clean all of the ducts in your home. Duct cleaning should also involve a radical cleanup of the air handler, registers, grilles, supporters, engines, housings, and coils.
At Duct Cleaning Toronto we recommend that you have your HVAC system and ducts cleaned when:
- Renovation: lead paint treatment, or significant dust – your ductwork could need to be cleaned if your house has been renovated particularly if there is asbestos abatement. Ducts must be closed off during house renovations otherwise dust and dangerous particles can become set within the ductwork.
- Pests: If there's proof of an infestation or nesting inside your ducts or HVAC system, have the pests removed then clean the ductwork and HVAC unit.
- Mold: when there is apparent mold growth inside the ductwork, the ducts and HVAC system should be cleaned.
- Contaminants: then the ducts need to be cleaned – If dog hair, recognizable trash smells, or other contaminants are increasingly being released in to the air through the ducts after the registers have been cleaned and vacuumed.
- Condition: If somebody inside your family is struggling with an allergy or illness, and you've taken every other feasible stage to decontaminate your home, you may want to contemplate having your ducts cleaned to determine if the HVAC system was to blame.
According to NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) the typical six-room property collects 40 lbs of soil, dust and contaminants in its air ducts annually. That's a huge issue, due to the fact 40,000 dust mites can live in only one-ounce of dust. These small dust "bunnies" include a sponsor of fungi unhealthy bacteria and mold. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates air inside your house might be between two and five times dirtier than the outside atmosphere. Worse, the infected air moves throughout your house every time the HVAC system is switched on.
Improved and Energy Efficient Air Quality
The build-up of dust and dirt stops the air from moving freely through the entire ventilation system. Meaning it works harder and costs more to operate. Over time, the problem simply gets worse. Clear the air in your house by cleaning your air ducts and air vents.
It's also very important to understand that many organizations minimize ventilation system cleaning to just the air ducts. We clean your whole ventilation system, including the HVAC, the individual air ducts and available components, along with blower, evaporator coil, from your vent covers towards the main trunk line. We clean them remove the vent covers, and then put them back in place. From duct cleaning to vent cleaning, every part of your ventilation system is cleaned.
Prevent a Dryer Fire In Your House
As well as air duct cleaning, our qualified experts also clean dryer vents. Having your dryer vents cleaned routinely not just saves you money in power performance it will also help avoid a dryer fire in your home.
Watch for the next signs that an air duct cleaning is overdue:
- Dirty vent covers.
- Dark lines on the ceiling, the walls or rug that surround the vents.
- Excessive dust in your home.
- Variance in heat or air flow throughout the house.
- An increase in the energy needed to operate the HVAC system at your preferred levels. This might suggest that dirt is restricting flow and blocking coils and/or ductwork which will cause your utility bills to spike.
- New ductwork or furnace.
- A current remodel or development project.
- Flooding or water damage that occurred inside the ductwork, which could cause sediment build up inside the process.
Why Choose Duct Cleaning Toronto?
24/7 services
You don't need to wait for Monday morning to get in touch with us. You can call us whenever you need ventilation work and we will arrive at your doorstep.
A professional team
All of our staff are certified in the field of air duct servicing and maintenance and have all the skills necessary to tackle a variety of problems.
Advanced technology and equipment
We have the latest diagnostic tools to assess the problems and a complete set of equipment to solve them.
Our Services:
Kitchen exhaust cleaning
The kitchen exhaust is one part of your home's ventilation system that is often overlooked. This particular exhaust serves to divert all the nasty smells and smoke that might emanate from the kitchen and fill the house when you are cooking, which is why you want it to be clean as possible. And Duct Cleaning Toronto has the right team for the task.
Grease filter cleaning
Within your kitchen exhaust, the grease filter is an important part that needs special attention. It helps reduce flash fires by trapping grease vapors that might otherwise flood your vents. Cleaning and replacing the filter is a delicate task which is why we also have a dedicated team for it.
HVAC exhaust cleaning
One of the most important elements of a well-performing HVAC system is good airflow. And if the exhaust gets blocked by dirt, debris, or other contaminants that can affect it greatly and may lead to higher energy consumption and more cost. Duct Cleaning Toronto will give your HVAC exhaust a thorough cleaning to get it running the right way again.
Fire restoration
In the case of fire, getting everything back together can be a daunting task. Don't worry though as we have skilled project managers to oversee the work and bring your exhaust system back in good shape.
Mold remediation
Mold growth not only greatly decreases the performance of your exhaust system, but can also bring in a variety of diseases. We have assembled a team of mold experts to not only repair the damage done but also to prevent the mold from growing back again.
Preventive maintenance
Of course, it would be a lot easier to prevent exhaust problems than trying to fix them when they happen. Duct Cleaning Toronto provides you with regular checkup services to find potential problems and fix them before they happen.
Air conditioning cleaning
Often all your house needs is a good old-fashioned cleaning. And we can do that for you. And what more, we do a better job than just old rags and feather dusters and rid your air conditioning unit not only of dust particles but also of other contaminants that might bring in airborne diseases.
What Our Customers Think:

Xarles Courcelle
"I love cooking and I always find myself in the kitchen. But the one thing I don't like doing in there is cleaning the exhausts. I hate the fact that they accumulate dirt and grease overtime. I contacted Duct Cleaning Toronto since they offer kitchen exhaust cleaning. The guys were prompt. They promised to be at my home by the morning since I reached out to them the night before. They arrived with all the tools necessary and did the cleaning swiftly. I love these guys. I will surely hire them again.

Duct Cleaning Advice:
While duct cleaning is conducted with safety in mind, it is necessary for your house to be unoccupied while the experts perform the cleaning. Appropriate equipment is used to perform the task safely, like containment barriers, ventilation equipment, filters and more.
Did you know that a household's cooling or heating system could waste energy up to 40 percent? This is really the case according to the U.S. Department of Energy and it is due to the contaminants that are making these HVAC systems work harder. Thus, duct cleaning is necessary if you aim to save energy.
For office environments, keeping air ducts clean can lead to higher productivity. Yes, that right. The surrounding is one of the factors that can influence productivity. Keeping it free of allergens and other pollutants means a healthy space for employee. Simply, less sickness, more hours for work.
Covered Areas:
Within Toronto: Old Toronto, Downtown Core (Central), East End, North End, West End, Etobicoke, York, East York, North York and Scarborough.
Around Toronto: Pickering, Ajax, Markham, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Brampton, Mississauga, Oakville, Milton, Gorgetown, Nashville, Green River, Whitby, Oshawa and others.

Just like EE but not as spectacular, O2 also improved its rankings in several indices but fell short in terms of reliability. While it finished second in call and text parameters, it finished last when it came to overall performance.
EE apparently most glitch-free network, says RootMetrics
Vodafone also returned empty-handed, finishing in second place in terms of network speed but a not-so-promising third place in overall rankings.
If you're an urban smartphone user, there's no question that EE will be the dream network operator to turn to. However, if you live in the countryside or travel often, Three will be the most reliable one.
The RootMetrics survey was conducted on metrics like Overall Performance, Network Reliability, Network Speed, Mobile Internet, Call, and Text in the second half of the year. EE scored an impressive 88.1 out of 100 in overall ratings. Three followed a bit behind at 84.5 while Vodafone and O2 huffed and puffed to the finish line with 78.6 and 76.6 respectively.
It's confirmed! Liverpool is the mecca of network performance in UK
Vodafone and O2 offered better overall performance than in the first half of 2015 when they scored 74.5 and 72.7 respectively. However, EE's overall score came down from 89.4 to 88.1 in the same period, which means that the gulf between E and the bottom performance isn't as much as it was in the first half of 2015.
EE continues to provide the best mobile performance across the UK, but we're seeing some of the other operators making good improvements across all the different ways we use our mobile phones. Choosing the mobile operator that's right for you is not one-size-fits-all. While some people care most about fast mobile internet so they can watch videos or download music without delay, others just want to know that they can reliably make a call or send a text. Consumers can use this report to make informed decisions based on where they live and how they tend to use their phone," said Scott Stonham, RootMetrics General Manager of Europe.
Stream before you fly? Choose Heathrow
In terms of country-wise performance, EE did a clean sweep on network speed in England, N. Ireland, Scotland and Wales. On overall performance, it lost out to Three in Wales but won in the other nations. Wales turned out to be EE's Achilles heel where the operator turned up with disappointing scores like 64.3 on network speed, 76.2 on calls and 72.4 on overall performance.
In terms of network speed, EE recorded the strongest victory with a 9-point gap with Vodafone which came second in UK-wide rankings. In terms of overall network reliability, it lost out to Three narrowly with just 1.6-point difference between the two.

Most Socialist President of the USA
Penguinbane is gone. Our dear beloved Newt Gingrich. Although he made unrealistic statements about space, loved God, despised the left and was renowned for his interest in popular hygiene, Penguinbane somehow did not succeed in his ultimate quest to become President of the United States (POTUS). Coincidentally an anagram of POTUS is POUTS, and pouting being one of the myriad of reactions that comes to mind when I hear a little smidgeon of this on my television late at night.
"As to the presidency, I'm asked sometimes is Mitt Romney conservative enough? And my answer is simple – compared to Barack Obama? You know, this is not a choice between Mitt Romney and Ronald Reagan. This is a choice between Mitt Romney and the most radical leftist president in American history."
To be correct I didn't pout. I got up off my seat, walked over to the television and said the word "no" loudly and repeatedly, with intermittent inclusion of "idiot". My beef? Udder than the supposed fact that conservative is now a byword for "best", the equally intangible statement that Obama is the most radical leftist president in American history. Please. I live in Australia and I know that not to be the case, as much as my subversive little heart wishes otherwise. I will present to Penguinbane three arguments. Three presidents who were more socialist than Barrack Obama.
El Presidente Uno: Theodore Roosevelt.
Oh Teddy! Interventionist hero of the Spanish Wars, roughrider, game hunter and all round badass! He rode meese and strangled nakeds with his bear hands! Often ranked within the 5th best presidents of all time! Is he not more conservative than Chuck Norris? Well aside from his Spaniard ousting adventures overseas, Theodore Roosevelt was famous for his trust busting. That's right, the evil statist restraint of capitalism's ethereal invisible hand, infringing the abilities of hardworking honest industrialists to gain monopolies on certain sectors of the economy. Also he was a greenie. He basically created national parks and was avowed conservationist. He would have liked the EPA and wind farms if Marx magic were able to resurrect his corpse today. Verdict? Tree-hugging liberal.
Der Prasident Zwei: Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
A distant cousin of Teddy, and therefore a commie by default, Franklin Delano Roosevelt is often rated as one of the USA's greatest presidents, for his skillful steering of America out of the Great Depression and into World War Two. FDR's package to revive the ailing United States was disgusting heartless communist filth that worked quite effectively if some historians are to believed. It was based around not only the recovery of the economy to normal levels, but more decisively "relief" for the unemployed and "reform" to prevent the Great Depression from happening again. That means wealth redistribution and regulation kiddos, and that's socialist. FDR's New Deal also relied on massive public works programs to provide employment to proletarian scum and revitalise sections of the economy that deserved to die. Though much headway has been made by a series of more sane governments that have eroded FDR's evil regulations, and made the natural profitable cycles as seen in the Global Financial Crisis possible again, socialist anathemas like the Tennessee Valley Authority and the outdated anti-market concept of "social security" still exist.
Le President Trois: Dwight Eisenhower
Dwight, like T. Roosevelt at first glance does not seem fairly socialist. He was a Republican. He was a five-star general who put all of Western Europe under the stars and stripes. He became the super commander of NATO, intervened in Iran and Guatemala to topple left leaning democratic leaders and replace them in national interest. But all this doesn't diminish his socialist aspect. After all, did not Trotsky believe in a world revolution? Did not the Comintern specialise in the creation in the contamination of precious bodily fluids across the world? The fact remains that although Ike fought the Soviets back like a true patriotic son, his national policy would be condemned as socialist if put forward today. What did he do? Well for starters the top tax rate in Eisenhower's reign was 94%. Today Obama's trying on his class warfare to raise it to 40%. He ordered the state build highways, rather than rely on friendly private corporations and expanded exponentially on the disgusting social security FDR forced on the brave American populace. He also tyrannically placed in troops to enforce educational integration at Little Rock, Arkansas. Astronomical taxes, builds autobahns, gives money to filthy poor folk, makes war on conservative values. Eisenhower is undoubtedly a Red. If only McCarthy had spotted him and acted accordingly.
So next time you hear, or perhaps even yourself spout, Penguinbane's misplaced rhetoric, actually consider America's history, and realise that Obama is not socialist. He's a moderate conservative, well to the right of Eisenhower and most centre-right christian democrats in Europe. Peace fraternal and sisternal comrades, and please rectify any errors this hapless Australian has made. Read here for an interesting more comprehensive version I've found.
Clive Palmer: National Treasure?
G'day guys and gals. Sorry for the hiatus, I've been too busy making excuses, and its been a slow news week besides. I just though I'd tell you a few quick thinks about our dear collective amigo, Clive Palmer, declared a National Treasure by Woman's Day and therefore apparently some sort of cultural folk hero who specialises in gallantly destroying world heritage areas and destabilising governments.
Clive Palmer, Australian millionaire mining magnet and apparent national treasure is a hero. If you haven't been blessed with the giddy pleasure of having witnessed him on Australia's nightly news bulletins, he basically just loves calling press conferences and announcing things. Just like Spiderman's sticky hand juice, and Batman's cape and lycra fetish, it's a vital part of his superhero persona. He successfully revealed to us the astonishing revelation that Greenpeace and the Greens are run by the CIA, he's starting up a rival football federation to counter Lowy's evil heartless commu-facists. He's going to rebuild the Titanic, discover the lost city of Atlantis and presumably perform a duet with Gina Rinehart on the ship's very prow, a premiere of Gina's latest spoken word piece about the evils of regulating business and the need for Third world slave labour. Celine Dion eat your heart out.
Is there anything more that our dear, heroic national treasure can offer this country. The short answer is yes. He's going to run for parliament, in Treasure Wayne Swan's seat of Lilley, and perform a heroic public service for the national good.
Okay. Let's depart from that for a second and take a more serious tack. Now this bloke isn't your run of the mill Vermin Supreme, your satirical, attention seeking 4chan troll. He may be ridiculous, but he's kind of dangerous. Like our dear friend Gina he's got an agenda, namely "cutting red tape" or more accurately giving free run of the country to the super rich like himself. At the moment, gaining favourable preselection for the seat of Lilley is seeming remote, but I assure you, should he gain it and anymore influence, it would be a dark day for our supposedly egalitarian society. People like Mr Palmer and Ms Rinehardt are like poison within our system, using their immense wealth, built up via exploitation and inheritance to alter the flow of opinion and change political decisions in their favour, be it to deregulate business, encourage socially conservative views, or skew the "debate" on anthropogenic climate change. The consolidation of the power should be rightly feared, and opposed at every turn. Robber barons should not, nor ever be, a part of Australian society.
Redskins: Socialist Punk
What's this? This is the Redskins, one of the best political punk bands of the 1980s. The Redskins fought Nazi and far right skinheads, racial prejudice and the Thatcher government through their actions and their lyrics, set against the turbulent backdrop of the British miner's strike. This song, Lev Bronstein, condemns the Soviet Union, lauds the Solidarity movement in Poland and evokes the memory of that decisive and divisive ideological figure, Leon Trotsky. Have a listen. Check out more of their songs. They're quite awesome.
Greece Enlightening!
I'm really sorry about the title. Truly I am. Please keep reading. The Greek Elections are scheduled for the 6th of May, that's only a couple of weeks into the dark and murky future. But before you dismiss this off-hand, which I'm sure you won't do, and protest that this stuff is only of interest to hopeless political buffs, which I'm sure you don't think, consider for a second, the elections possible implications.
I'm not an expert of Greek politics. Even if I had the self discipline I couldn't read the plethora of party's various manifestos and policies, and catch up on the latest inside news. Mostly because I can't speak or read Greek, but the little I can gleam from the world around me makes me interested and just a bit concerned.
Greece's government is deeply unpopular. With the departure of the far-right LAOS, it's currently a grand coalition made from two separate parties, united by a common support for the austerity measures required for European Union bailouts to continue. The largest party in the coalition is PASOK, the Panhellenic Socialist Movement, a centre-left party which garnered around 43% of the vote at the last election in 2009. After the last few years of economic catastrophe, it currently polls at around 15%. The leader of PASOK, Evangelos Venizelos is apparently extremely similar in appearance to the lead singer of British heavy metal band Grim Reaper.
The next largest party is New Democracy, PASOK's centre-right counterpart and main opposition partner. The fact that PASOK and ND are now bedfellows speaks volumes about the magnitude of the situation effecting Greece. That is if the massive riots, unemployment and mass exodus went unnoticed. ND seems to be your run of the mill centre-right party, but it does however have a profound hard right influence. Party leader Antonis Samaras was ejected from the party 16 years ago for his bull-headed stance on Macedonia, and of their two MPs, formerly members of the once third party in the coalition, far right LAOS, have come to the attention of international media for their views and history.
This is Sabby Mioni's take on coalition minister Markis Voridis, published in Haaretz at the beginning of this month.
"As a Jew and an Israeli, I feel it is my duty and obligation to share with you Voridis' background and political career. A former leading figure in Greece's neo-Nazi youth group, Chrysi Avgi (Golden Dawn), Voridis has a long history of Holocaust denial, anti-Semitism and xenophobia, including physical threats to Jewish families and leading groups of thugs against immigrants and leftists. Over the last couple of weeks he has smoothed over his thuggish past by describing it as "right-wing activism". As a student at the elite Athens College high school, alma mater of current Prime Minister Papadimos, former Prime Minister Papandreou, Samaras and myself, Voridis formed the fascist student group "Free Students" that painted the walls with swastikas and saluted each other with using the Nazi-era greeting "Heil Hitler."
During school elections, Voridis would violently threaten not only the Jewish students who opposed his fascist group, but also their families. After graduation, Voridis formed a fascist group in the Law School of Athens and became active in neo-Nazi youth groups. In the 1990s, following the footsteps of his mentor, Jean Marie LePen, he formed the National Front, an anti-immigrant party. His party's motto was "Red card for immigrants." A few years ago, he joined LAOS and was elected to parliament. He soon became the darling of the Greek media, due to his extensive family connections, his debating skills and his charisma in front of the cameras."
Less prominent is deputy minister Adonis Georgiadis, who is famous for his televised rants against Muslims, immigrants, Jews and support for the military dictatorship that formerly governed Greece. Up until February the coalition could have included LAOS, or Popular Orthodox Rally, party leader Giorgos Karatzaferis, a one time body building xenophobe who once declared. "They say that to get ahead you have to be one of three things: a Jew, a homosexual, or a communist. We are none of these … Vote for a parliament without Masons, without homosexuals, without those dependent on Zionism." Thankfully, support for LAOS has plummeted following their brief but toxic involvement in the grand coalition.
Now, bearing these facts in mind, the rapidly deteriorating status of the Greek economy, and what's seen as increasing dependence on Germany and the EU, its no wonder why support for the Coalition, comprised of the once major parties is running at a combined 33%, and according to the latest MRB Hellas poll, only 7% would favour an administration comprised of the two main parties. More and more, Greeks are looking to the margins of the political arena for answers.
Poll methodology varies, but currently the support for the long-suffering KKE, the Communist Party of Greece, an old Soviet style Marxist party, prominent in the protest movement and known for denying the true scale of Stalin's atrocities is running at around 10%. SYRIZA, the Coalition of the Radical Left, and the democratic socialist party DIMAR, the Democratic Left, are both recording similar results. That gives anti-austerity leftist parties, before the crisis either non-existent or with only fringe support, with a level of support that rivals the mainstream coalition.
Apart from the Greens, the anti-austerity classic liberals in the ANEL, Independent Greeks, and the New Democracy splinter group DISY, Democratic Alliance, the party that stands out the most if not in support than in sheer shock value is Golden Dawn. Once a fringe party, Golden Dawn, an unabashed ultra-nationalist Neo-nazi party with roots in Nazi occultism is now running at over 5% in some polls. Golden Dawn is known for reveling in Nazi memorabilia, Mein Kampf is on display at it's headquarters, anti-immigrant violence, Nazi salutes and holocaust denial. Sadly, all of this is becoming more and more acceptable to the Greek electorate, as economic conditions worsen and anti-immigrant sentiment rises.
Now to the crux, what I told you at the beginning. What does this mean for you? Well, with anti-Austerity parties polling around about two thirds of the vote, Greece's status as an EU member, and therefore continuing to receive bailout funds are increasingly in doubt. Default is a clear and present danger. What will this mean? I'm don't pretend to be an economist, but thing's I've heard sound pretty dire. Most of the Western world is in massive amounts of public debt and such a level of uncertainty and instability in this key part of the world can't be good for the shaky and hole-ridden global financial sector as a whole. So I'm just sitting back and watching anxiously, in the full knowledge that drastic generational change might be just around in the corner.
10cc: Rubber Bullets
This is one of my favourite songs at the moment, I stumbled across it on my computer a couple of days ago, with no distinct idea of how it got there, but its grown in me like cheese in a can. Which I despise, so maybe that isn't the best simile.
The song is a sort of piss take on Jailhouse Rock on Elvis, as is obvious from both the style of the music, the accent and the lyrics. Its very 1950s, with more than a dollop of mind bending psychedelia especially when it comes to the solos. The lyrics themselves are intensely political. 10cc is a British art-rock band, and the song alludes, intentionally or accidentally, to the then ongoing intense conflict in Northern Ireland, and the use of rubber bullets there. For all these reasons Rubber Bullets a gem of a song, and the 70s aesthetics on show throughout the film clip is only the icing on the cake.

text: RT Book, Whole DB /z-wcorg/ DS http://worldcat.org ID 52814066 LA English T1 Ghost wars : the secret history of the CIA, Afghanistan, and bin Laden, from the Soviet invasion to September 10, 2001 A1 Coll, Steve., PB Penguin Press PP New York YR 2004 SN 1594200076 9781594200076 AB An account of the CIA's involvement in the covert wars in Afghanistan that fueled Islamic militancy and gave rise to bin Laden's al Qaeda. For nearly the past quarter century, while most Americans were unaware, Afghanistan has been the playing field for intense covert operations by U.S. and foreign intelligence agencies-invisible wars which sowed the seeds of the September 11 attacks and which provide its context. From the Soviet invasion in 1979 through the summer of 2001, the CIA, KGB, Pakistan's ISI, and Saudi Arabia's General Intelligence Department all operated directly and secretly in Afghanistan. They primed Afghan factions with cash and weapons, secretly trained guerrilla forces, funded propaganda, and manipulated politics. In the midst of these struggles bin Laden conceived and then built his global organization. The author tells the secret history of the CIA's role in Afghanistan, from its covert program against Soviet troops from 1979 to 1989, to the rise of the Taliban and the emergence of bin Laden, to the secret efforts by CIA officers and their agents to capture or kill bin Laden in Afghanistan after 1998. Based on extensive firsthand accounts, this story goes well beyond anything previously published on U.S. involvement in Afghanistan. It chronicles the roles of midlevel CIA officers, their Afghan allies, and top spy masters such as Bill Casey, Saudi Arabia's Prince Turki al Faisal, and George Tenet.

Editors' Note: This article is part of the Patheos Public Square on Charitable Giving. Read other perspectives here. For December Patheos has asked us bloggers to write about charitable giving and why we do it. They say this is the time of year for gifts and giving. There aren't really gift-giving holidays in December for Hindus but charity is something for all year round and it's always a good time to talk about giving.Just as some people in America see Christmas as becoming too … [Read more...]
Hindus and Charity
Miracles and Gurus
I think I am a great example of how important it is to be patient and cautious when waiting for a guru. I've always advised you to exercise great care before dedicating yourself to a spiritual leader. You have the Truth within you and you shouldn't give your power over to someone who doesn't deserve it. And the vast majority of spiritual leaders don't deserve it. There's a lot of frauds out there and there's a lot of misguided people who become leaders because of not pure motives and still have … [Read more...]
Full Time Spiritual Life
Spending two weeks with almost nothing outside of spiritual pursuits was very eye-opening.Yes, I did do some shopping. I still fell victim to my material desires. But for most of the time we were living in spartan ashram quarters and there was nothing to do besides meditate, pray, and read spiritual literature. I even experienced a complete break from food desire. I had a very small appetite and I ate only to sustain the body with no attachments or desires surrounding food. By the end of … [Read more...]
My Future Pilgrimages
My trip to Sringeri was life changing. It shifted something inside me and slightly changed the course of my life.While I was watching the Shishya Sweekara a conviction began to take hold and grow within me. I realized that seeing my guru, going to Sringeri, is the most important thing in my life. So far I have gone only when my dad was going. I would tag along on his trips. And I'm so grateful to have been able to do that! It's expensive to get from America to India. But this is my guru … [Read more...]
Sringeri Week: The Shishya Sweekara
When this trip was first planned it was only to see His Holiness. It wasn't until after we had our tickets and our travel plans confirmed that the Sringeri Math put out a huge announcement...(English subtitles after the Sanskrit) His Holiness announced that he had found a successor to the title of Shankaracharya and the ceremony that would make him officially next in line would be happening while we were in Sringeri!An amazing coincidence and a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Meet a Sage: Adi Shankara
Shankara is an enormously important figure in Hinduism, most particularly my branch of Advaita Vedanta. He was a brilliant philosopher from a young age and wrote amazing commentaries on all the Hindu scriptures in the 8th century CE.He re-energized the branch of Hinduism known as Advaita or Smartha. He believed that the ultimate reality was one of complete unity.During his young life, he traveled by foot over all of India discussing and spreading his ideas, attempting to unify Hinduism. … [Read more...]

Cara Finnegan is a Professor in the Department of Communication. She joined the university in 1999 after completing her Ph.D. at Northwestern University. She holds affiliated appointments in the Center for Writing Studies, Gender and Women's Studies, and Art History. She currently holds a Conrad Humanities Professorship in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Finnegan's research examines the role of photography as a tool for public life. Photographs are powerful forms of communication: they visualize social issues, make visible those who are often invisible, and foster or limit bonds of identification. Her book-length projects are best described as rhetorical histories of photography, in that she variously examines the production, composition, circulation, and reception of photographs at specific moments in U.S. history. Her most recent book, Making Photography Matter: A Viewer's History from the Civil War to the Great Depression was published by University of Illinois Press in 2015.
During 2016-17, Finnegan will hold a National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Fellowship in support of her current book project, American Presidents and the History of Photography from the Daguerreotype to the Digital Age.

Riley J. Dennis is non-binary trans woman, writer, YouTuber, activist, and educator. She worked as the Editor-in-Chief of the Quaker Campus newspaper, where she pushed Whittier College to reform how they dealt with cases of sexual assault.
She received a Bachelor's degree in Writing Worlds — a combination of creative writing and anthropology — and used her expertise to publish a series of three young adult fantasy books with characters from diverse backgrounds.
Through her YouTube channel, she works to educate the public on a range of issues all connected through social justice and intersectional feminism, mainly focusing on rape culture, gender identity, sexuality, and fatphobia.
You can view her videos or read the transcripts here.
Location: Los Angeles, California, USA.
Book Riley Now!
To arrange to have Riley speak at your event, please complete this form here and we will be in touch soon. Her presentations include:
- Fighting Rape Culture: How We Can Make Our Campuses Safer – Rape culture is something that permeates every aspect of our lives, but it's particularly prominent on college campuses. This presentation looks at specific examples of rape culture on college campuses and identify ways for us to fix them, both on the individual and administrative levels.
- How Your College Newspaper Can Create Social Change – College newspapers have a lot more power than they're often aware of, and this presentation looks at how you can use that power to create positive social change on your campus. Colleges are notoriously bad at handling reported cases of sexual assault, but nothing motivates college administration like a little bit of attention in the press. The presenter will provide examples of how her own college newspaper used their position of influence to change things for the better.
- Figuring Out Your Gender: How We Know Who We Are – Gender identity isn't a new concept by any means, but a lot of people have just never had to think about it. When we learn to accept that not everyone is cisgender, how do we go about figuring out our own identities? This presentation looks at what resources are available to us and works to reassure everyone that they're not alone on this journey.
- Fatphobia: Why Society Hates Fat People And How We Can Stop – Fatphobia is real and alive today, and strangely socially acceptable. This presentation looks at how we, as a society, have conflated health with weight for decades. It examines language that is harmful to not only fat people, but everybody, and it gives you the tools to change your own behavior so that we can all benefit from a more peaceful society.
- Intersectionality: How To Bring Others Into Your Feminism –Feminism isn't just for upper-middle class white women. Trans people, fat people, people of color, disabled people — everyone must be included for it to truly be beneficial. This presentation looks at the ways in which you can ensure that your brand of social justice is legitimately inclusionary.
All topics can be adapted to be presentations, keynote speeches, or workshops and can be tailored to the audience. If you don't see a topic that quite meets your needs but think we can cover it, just let us know. We are also willing to create a signature talk or workshop for groups.

In terms of business and start-ups, the underlying theme to me was that you should try not to assume that you're correct - instead create small tests where you roll out an idea in small increments and test them before advancing. In some respect, it sounds like so much common sense, but how often do we fail to do this.
Old school business involves creating grandiose business plans that are complete and researched/analyzed using a ton of time. However, encapsulated within that is a lot of assumptions. How do you know such and such will happen? How do you know that customer feedback won't take you in a completely different direction? How can you possibly plan for that alternate direction if you haven't received enough feedback yet?
It's difficult predict what people will value, and how much they will value it until they actually have to pay for it (or at least use it). So how do you get to the point where you know exactly how much a customer will value your product/service with the least amount of waste? Are you being flexible enough to allow a 180 degree turn if you find that the customer will value something else than you originally planned for (and that you have the expertise to do)?
One important point Maurya makes early on is that money is not the only form of waste. Just as important are things like your time and energy. Why spend time and energy on things that won't add value?
The book gives you steps on how to incrementally roll out your idea and constantly test it as you go, down to the level of who you should be getting feedback from, how much time to spend interviewing them, and what questions to ask them.
At a high-level, the Running Lean framework is fairly straightforward: validate the problem. Define a solution. Validate the solution. Then develop your solution iteratively while continuing to test and validate along the way. Running Lean offers concrete, actionable instructions and templates for each step of this process.
However, the greatest flaw in this book is hinted in the language of the author's promise. Running Lean is designed more like an algorithm -- painfully detailed, comprehensive, and unemotional -- than a practical field guide for the real world. The book delves into everything from landing page design to kanban boards. In other words, in its attempt at engineering a comprehensive framework for business creation, Running Lean fails to deliver a strong set of core principles (I will revisit this later in my summary).
Another problem I have with the author's promise is that the word "metrics" is mentioned twice, when in actuality Running Lean incorporates very few metrics. In fact, it's not until the very last stage of that actual numbers are even mentioned (eg. Sean Ellis test, 40% customer retention). I found incongruence in the fact that Running Lean was characterized as algorithmic, but was largely based on qualitative experiments without discussion of potential quantitative benchmarks or test methodologies.
Since *Running Lean* is considered the de-facto field manual for Lean Startup methodology, I was eager to read it and compare it to Nail It then Scale It: The Entrepreneur's Guide to Creating and Managing Breakthrough Innovation, which I had read previously.
At a high level, NISI and Running Lean prescribe very similar methodologies. However, where Running Lean stumbles, NISI's shines. NISI's focus on simplicity makes it far more powerful and practical. For example, as a first step, NISI focuses _only_ on pain whereas Running Lean starts off with a lean canvas, which forces you to simultaneously consider other parts of the business model. NISI's "less is more" approach proves more effective, because as formulaic and well-engineered as Running Lean tries to be, the reality is that starting a company is stressful and unpredictable.
Another example of unnecessary complexity is useless jargon like "iteration meta-pattern" and "build-measure-learn loop", as well as tangential topics like usability testing, Kanban boards or an annoyingly complex definition of risk: "the way you quantify risk in your business model is by quantifying the probabilities of a specific outcome along with quantifying the associated loss if you're wrong." As a result of its complexity, the milestones in Running Lean are less concrete and powerful than NISI. NISI does a better job painting a holistic picture of common entrepreneurial fallacies, and how to breakthrough them by focusing on the most important goal -- acquiring payed customers.
I also want to highlight two methodological differences between NISI and Running Lean:
1) NISI gets you in front of customers faster. The Lean Canvas is simple, but it seems like the entire exercise should hinge on the customer pain being validated first. That gets entrepreneurs in front of customers faster, which in turn helps save time and wasted energy on the subsequent steps.
2) NISI recommends an objective, quantitative testing method for initially validating the customer pain, whereas Running Lean uses customer interviews. I would argue that as a whole, NISI approaches the startup process more objectively while Running Lean bases it on customer interviews.
Overall, I believe Running Lean is a worthwhile complement to NISI in bits and pieces. Specifically, I found its structured customer interview templates, advice on establishing pricing, and mention of the "Sean Ellis Test" to be valuable and actionable.
The idea of systematically de-risking your business idea is a powerful way to get up and running with the smallest amount of money possible. If you have a business idea but you're not sure whether it's viable, Ash will give you a step by step plan for bringing it from the canvas to making money.
As another positive, the author seems to genuinely be interested in engaging with people who read the book. If this book doesn't answer a question you have, you could probably ask him. That's pretty good value for a book.
