Winter Sleep is called Kiş Uykusu in Turkish which means something like hibernation. It is set in Kappadokya in the winter time. The landscape looked very familiar. We were there last year in the summer and stayed at a hotel built into the hillside with a similar feel to the one in the film (*). It is based on a couple of stories by Anton Chekov.
The protagonist is a former actor who has now retired to live in the centre of Anatolia. He has inherited the hotel from his father along with several properties in the village. He writes columns for the local paper which it is likely few read and plans to write a book about the history of theatre in Turkey. His name is Aydın, which means intellectual or enlightened person. He lives with his sister Necla, who has recently parted from her husband, and his much younger wife Nihal.
There are only a few guests remaining at the hotel this late in the season. When one guest notes that there are no horses at the hotel, although horses are featured on the website, Aydın is prompted to go to the horse catcher. A wild horse is lassoed by a stream, subdued and pulled from the water exhausted. Soon afterward the guest, who is travelling without a fixed itinerary by cross-country motorbike, departs unexpectedly and Aydın, perhaps in a moment of clarity, sets the horse free. It gallops away through the valley in the moonlight.

The Twin Command, The Family And The Synod
Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 14, 2014 (message contributor)
Summary: The family is in trouble, but the Holy Spirit is acting in our day, especially through the Synod on the Family, to restore it.
Thirtieth Sunday in Course 2014
The Law of Love
The best description of the kind of love commanded by Jesus may have been given nine hundred years ago by St. Thomas Aquinas. He said, "To love anyone is nothing else than to wish that person well, to want what is good for them." But St. James, in a letter that Martin Luther called a "straw epistle," told the story of a Christian who wished a brother well but did nothing to help him in his time of need. And he didn't have anything good to say about someone whose love was confined to pious words. Nor did Jesus. When he told the story of the rich man and the poor beggar Lazarus, he consigned the rich man to a fiery fate, and Lazarus to the bosom of Abraham, a Semitic analogy of heaven. Not even a drop of water would be given to relieve the pain of the one banished to hell by his own stinginess and insensitivity.
Yes, the Church teaches that when we have breathed our last, when we appear before Jesus, who is both our Savior and our Judge, He will invite us to testify whether we have lived and died in love. And then we will by our own clear memories of our lives decide in what condition we will spend eternity. Those who die in love will be united to Perfect Love, the Blessed Trinity. Those who have lived selfish lives, devoid of charity and forgiveness, will become the fare at a hellish barbeque.
The best news is that Jesus invites us now to examine our consciences and decide how we are to live the rest of our lives. Deciding for love will, certainly, involve some inconvenience, and maybe even a revision of our monthly budget. But love we must, and we must love as Jesus did, all the way to Calvary. Compared to the love-gift of Jesus, spending time serving the poor, grooming the parish grounds, or building a Habitat house is next to nothing. We cannot look forward to a good life, either here or in the next, unless we love our neighbor as ourself.
But what about God? What about loving God? What does wishing good for God mean? After all, He is perfect Goodness, the fullness of Good. Jesus gave us a clue in the Gospels. He talks about people who call him "Lord, Lord," and then go off and do whatever pleases them, with no reference to the will of God. Contrast that attitude, that behavior, with that of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Her whole life was dedicated to doing the will of God. Practically the first words out of her mouth at the Annunciation were "be it done to me according to Thy word." And the Word became flesh at that very moment, and pitched His tent among us. What new wonders could God do for the world if every person in this congregation woke up each morning and set about doing the will of God?
How do we know the will of God for our lives? As small children, the rule is to do what our parents, who stand in for God in the family, tell us to do. And, of course, we avoid what they tell us not to do. Hopefully, these parents give us good example. But some parents, for one reason or another summarized in the effects of original sin, do not give good example. The worst cases are parents who abuse their children or each other, and those who engage in overtly sinful conduct. Children see that and begin to believe that wrong is right and right is wrong. Whole areas of our cities are infected with this blight. It produces societies in which the rule of life is to "do unto others before they do unto you." In some of these places we have three to five generations of single-parent families, traditions of fatherless children, and welfare dependency that demeans, rather than raises up, the next generation before they even have a chance at real growth.

Marbella, 100 kilometres square and 24 kilometres of beach, is known all over the world as one of the classiest and most beautiful holiday destinations in Southern Europe. It has everything: beaches, mountains, old world charm, cosmopolitan atmosphere and services, countryside and city, and a wonderful climate that keeps the temperatures cooler in summer and warmer in winter than the rest of Malaga province. From Cabopino to Guadalmina, passing through the pleasure ports of Marbella and Puerto Banús, the coastline is fine sand all the way, and the land that goes back from the beaches is a paradise of luxury housing developments, golf courses and beautiful mountain scenery. It is little wonder that Marbella has attracted millions of visitors for many decades, and that many people who come here on holidays decide to stay.
With over 330 days of sunshine a year and scorching summers with long warm evenings, Marbella is the place for exquisite living Having undergone major rejuvenation in recent years, Marbella has now truly regained its rightful place as one of the world's premier resort locations. This is primarily due to the worldwide investment that has been attracted in recent decades, restoring the city to its former glory as Spain's most exclusive destination. Whilst France has the Côte d'Azur and St Tropez, Spain has Marbella and Puerto Banús on the Costa del Sol, and they share many special attributes: an endless supply of world-class restaurants, beautiful sandy beaches, first-rate golf courses, fashionable shops, lovely yachting marinas and a vast number of chic bars and clubs to keep you entertained.

Whiskey Tango FoxtrotPaperback
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
55 loyalty points
eParcel delivery $7.50 Australia wide
A true-life Catch-22 set in the war-torn countries of Afghanistan and Pakistan, by one of the region's longest-serving correspondents.
Kim Barker is not your typical, impassive foreign correspondent – she is candid, self-deprecating, and funny. At first an awkward newbie in Afghanistan, she grows into a wisecracking, seasoned reporter with grave concerns about the ability of US might to win hearts and minds in the region. As she does the 'Taliban shuffle' between conflict zones, Barker offers a close-up account of the war in Afghanistan and Pakistan, chronicling the years after America's initial routing of the Taliban.
When Barker arrives in Kabul, foreign aid is at a record low, electricity is a pipe dream, and of the few remaining foreign troops, some aren't allowed out after dark. Meanwhile, in the vacuum left by the US and NATO, the Taliban is regrouping.
Swift, funny, and wholly original, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot unforgettably captures the absurdity and tragedy of our modern wars.

*I wrote this last week, on Graydon's 6 month Birthday.*
I cannot believe that our sweet little man if half a year old already! Where has the time gone? He is doing so many new things, it just amazes us. Each day we are like hmm...he was not doing that yesterday?
He goes Mmmmm a lot, and sucks on his bottom lip.
He also started shrieking a couple weeks ago!! It is so cute. He is becoming quite vocal. His main thing that he says a lot is Da da da da da. I try to get him to say Ma ma, but not yet. :)
Graydon is so interactive. He smiles and giggles all the time, and if you are laughing he thinks it is funny and will laugh too! I also got him to belly laugh the other day. He will also giggle sometimes when we are changing him.
Speaking of changing him/dressing him, depending on his mood sometime it is way harder than others. He likes to arch his back, kick down his feet really hard (not good if you have a poopy diaper lying there), or try to roll over. Anything to escape putting clothes on! You have to be quick with the diaper too so he doesn't pee everywhere. He doesn't do it often but once in a while.....
He also likes to grab our arms when we are changing him and hold on to them, it is cute. I just asked Chris today if he did that to him too. I guess that he grabs his arm hair and pulls it, lol.
He likes to grab at my hair and pull it as well. Sometimes it seems like he is using them as reins! He will also grab for my necklaces or earrings if I am wearing them. Also peoples faces, he likes to touch them and pinch.
He is grabbing at everything now and can hold on to things really well. He is becoming quite curious! Along with feeling different textures and whatnot.
He can also pick up his pacifier by himself now if he sees it, and put it into his mouth.
Anything you hand to him goes straight into his mouth and he is drooling everywhere.
He is super ticklish on his legs by his thighs, loooves to be thrown up into the air. Also play airplane and peek-a-boo.
His hair is getting blonder and blonder. Chris was super blond when he was little so it does not surprise me.
Both of his feet touch the ground now in his jumpy. That kid is such a mover and a shaker! Still everyone's main comment regarding him is how strong he is.
He can sit up by himself, but will topple over. He is getting better at it though! For some reason he likes to fall forward. He has hit his face a couple times. We are working at it!
He still prefers to stand. We mostly just hold him by his armpits for balance. He likes to "dance" as we call it, and rock back and forth constantly. It is like he wants to just take off running! He will stand against things for quite some time and his balance is improving.
He has rolled over from his back to his stomach, but Heidi, our daycare provider, and us have yet to see it. He has been soooo close numerous times. It will happen soon I just know it!
He doesn't have any teeth coming through yet.
Still loves his bath time soo much and getting better at sitting in the tub. He loves to splash all around. We use Aveeno soap and lotion for him. It seems to work well and does not dry his skin out. It is moisturizing and has oatmeal in it.
He loves his swing for taking naps, but I am wanting to break that habit soon. We will see how naps go in his crib soon!
I believe that Graydon weighs around 16.5 lbs. according to our scale at home. He is growing out of 6 month clothes already. He is so tall! All of his pajamas that fit him are either 9 or 12 month sizes, it is crazy. Otherwise his little toes are just about to poke through anything else! 6 month pants fit him best, but are still a little big in the waste, unless he is wearing a cloth diaper.
We were bad about cloth diapering this past month and mostly used disposables, which is wears a size 3 in now.
His poops are getting stiiiinky by the way. I am sure because of eating solids.
He just recently started eating them more frequently. He has some in the morning and in the evening. He has now tried: sweet potatoes, squash, bananas, apples, and peaches. He always has a little bit with some rice cereal. He is a great eater, will open his mouth and pushes it down well with his tongue.
WOW. As I am sitting here typing I just heard him say Ma ma! Yay! :)
He also says ba ba ba a lot. So we call his bottle his "Ba Ba".
This past month Graydon was sick for a week around St. Patty's Day and got RSV. That was not fun at all. His temperature got up to over 103 degrees, and he was coughing like crazy. We could barely get him to eat. I know he lost some weight that week. When he would eat from the bottle he would maybe eat 1 ounce, and then he would cough and gag so hard that he would vomit it back up. He had to sleep by us in our room upright in his swing, and we had a vaporizer going. The day I took him to the doctor they gave him a breathing treatment right there at the office and then made us take him to get a chest x-ray. He also ended up having an ear infection in one ear and was put on amoxicillin. Thankfully it only lasted a week though! We felt so bad for him...he just seemed so helpless. He just was not himself!
Graydon is getting more cuddly, mostly when he is tired. Sometimes it feels like he is hugging you...I love it.
He is still happiest in the morning and a little grumpy butt in the evening. I just honestly think that he is so tired from playing all day. I guess that he loves to watch the other little boys run around and play when he is at daycare, and he loves his jumpy there too. By the time we get him home he is a tired boy, not to mention I think that he just gets bored with us! We are not as entertaining. :)
I think that is all for now. He is just changing so much every day, I am sure that I will have a lot more to write next month!

I didn't realize how busy moving/unpacking/getting organized would be . . . Target has also become my second home, and I've never been so excited to buy a trash can in my life. I have been swimming in a sea of paint chips, and it totally consumed me until I finally picked (I think) colors that will work on the walls. I also didn't think about all of the things I now need . . . a garden hose, of all things - and flowers? You mean I have to prevent those plants around the house from dying? yeeeah, about that . . .
I feel like in the midst of transition, everything else takes a backseat. When you're trying to adjust to a new situation, it consumes you . . . and even though it's temporary, it's a little distressing.
I feel like my time in the Word is suffering because, well, I thought I had a hard time focusing before . . . but now, I sit down and immediately remember 10 people that I need to email, cookware that I want to buy, let me search for an area rug, oooh loft is having a sale, how can I organize my closet, when will I get this paint on the walls, I need to write up a lease, it's time to clean the kitchen again, I need to get my car inspected, I want more candles, why does my shower door make that god awful noise (seriously, someone help), oh my laundry is done - dang it, I gotta climb those steps again and my hamstrings are burning from yesterday's bodypump class . . . which reminds me, I need to go to the gym today, my grandma's birthday is tuesday so I should send her a card, oh I need to clean the kitchen. Did I mention the kitchen needs attention?
YEAH. I feel like ADHD on crack. And then I'm in a bad mood because I feel like there aren't enough hours in the day and I haven't even spent time with God this morning.
And then I think . . . look at the calendar. I have a test to study for, I've got to figure out the paint situation, I have to go to a meeting for work, trips out of town, weekly obligations, etc. etc. etc.
How can I balance life right now? I feel like my coping mechanisms have been blaring Nicki Minaj and drinking iced coffee while running around this town doing a million errands (but then the coffee keeps me from sleeping well at night, another stressor) . . . yeah.
How can I be a good nurse, a good friend, a good roommate, a good daughter, a good small group leader, and be growing in my walk with God . . . and still maintain personal obligations and appointments, not to mention a clean house, a healthy diet, a healthy workout regimen, and mental sanity? How can I do all of these things well? I feel stretched in a plethora of directions - and I'm just a single woman in my 20's.
If I feel this crazy when I'm only responsible for myself, how in the world can I ever function in a relationship, or a marriage, or a family? If I am this overwhelmed now and I don't know how to balance responsibility and health now, how can I ever take on more or survive in a different stage of life?
Logically, rationally, I know that God does not give us more than we can handle. In my head, I know He will give me grace to handle whatever comes my way. But this present moment is a whirlwind and the thought of the future is threatening to knock me off my feet. My mood is waning and my heart feels faint. I don't want my circumstances to dictate my mood and steal my joy, but that's how I feel - so I might as well be honest about it.
Everything inside me tells me that once I clean, organize and decorate this house, and knock out my to-do list I'll be normal again. But I know that if I could just focus enough to spend time with God, my soul would find rest once again.
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.
-1 Peter 5:6-10

Hi everyone, I'm Samushi, but people often call me Sam. I'm relatively introverted, and pretty shy. If you get to know me I have a dark sense of humor and am very sarcastic.
I don't know why I like diapers/regression, but I'm working toward figuring it out. It seems to be largely linked with my inability to deal with stress.
In my free time I play several instruments and I love computer science, especially programming. I do lots of volunteer work, and prefer to work with animals over people because animals don't make me as nervous.
I don't really know what else to say, but if you have questions I'll try and answer them.

Various Artists: Percussions Afrique No. 1: Tchad, 1966
This 45 offers deep drumming from Chad, recorded by the famous ethnomusicologist Charles Duvelle and Michel Vuylstèke for the Ocora label with the cooperation of Chad National Radio, apparently on a recording excursion around the countryside. The music on both sides is beautiful, but I especially recommend the B side played loud. The first cut features two drummers from an ethnic group identified as Mbum in a place called Pao. The second features three drummers that they call Barma and was recorded in Massenya. The first song is available on the CD Mbum du Cameroun (whose liner notes seem to suggest that it was recorded in Cameroon) from the briefly in print label dedicated to Duvelle recordings called Collection Prophet. Somehow the speed of the recording changed between the two releases; the CD version is 13 seconds shorter than this one not including the silence before and after the song.
The liner notes of this 7" make a serious effort to be scientific about their cataloging methods for their recordings. Both recordings are identified by date, place, ethnic (or linguistic?) group, a very minimal statement of the music's purpose and a description of each instrument including its name and how it was played. In spite of this, both tracks are excerpts, not full recordings, and no individual musicians were named on the jacket. I can't help but imagine that Duvelle just went around with questionnaires and a mic trying to make as many recordings as possible instead of talking to any one person for too long and finding out too much about the social significance of any of the music he was recording. It seems like an awkward way to express admiration for these indigenous people in the wake of colonialism, but I guess it's what France was ready for at the time. It is great to be able to listen to this music today, but you wonder exactly what the holders of the purse strings back then expected they would achieve when they financed this project. It was a government project after all. Maybe it was about reconciliation, maybe guilt, maybe something completely unrelated.
In any case, I cannot recommend this music highly enough, especially at high volumes.

Peter Tosh b/w Joe Gibbs and the Professionals: Here Comes the Judge/ Judgment, 1973
This single originally came out in 1973, but from what I can tell by looking at the labels of early Joe Gibbs 45s on google images, this disc is not an original pressing. The A side, sung by Peter Tosh and a chorus of vocal actors, is about the trial of prominent Western explorers and bearers of imperialism and enslavement on Judgment Day. A court crier speaks on behalf of God as the accused protest that they were simply following orders. The B side is a lovely, unrelated instrumental track by the studio band.
Where many Western colonizers went, they tried to bring Christianity to the people they oppressed, partly in order to establish a paternalistic relationship in which they played the role of spiritual provider and compensated themselves by helping themselves to other people's labor and resources. One of the great ironies of the colonial project is that the colonizers' behavior was more Roman than Christ-like, and many imperial subjects, notably Jamaicans, became acutely aware of the incongruity. Christ told his followers to reject the material ambitions that accompany the pursuit of money because these distract people from accruing a wealth of spirit by serving God's will. "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's [i.e. the money that bears his image,] and unto God the things that are God's" (Matthew 22:21). Speaking of those who follow the path of wealth, Jesus cast doubt on their ability to dedicate a sufficient portion of their hearts to the ascetic observance of God's word, saying, "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24). It was no secret to conquered people that the desire for wealth motivated their colonizers, and yet these Europeans served as agents of Christianity.
Tosh's song opens with a spoken introduction: "...because it said here comes the judge, seen? And that does not mean the judge in what they call, in our colonial judiciary system, seen? Our imperial judicial system. I mean the judge of righteousness." The performance is theatrical, at times comical, like when the actors mock the accents of the accused or when the court crier changes Columbus's name to Cumbolos, a play on the word cumbolo, which has positive connotations of togetherness but can also refer to socially malicious people. The message of the song is potent and its critique unapologetic and sharp: the rich, powerful Europeans who exploited less militarily powerful peoples may have controlled life on earth for their colonial subjects, but God will ultimately reward the righteous and punish the wicked, and his judgments last for eternity. Judgment Day is not an uncommon topic in reggae songs, especially those by artists who focus more heavily on Rastafarian themes. As much as anything else, it shows how much the religion necessitates that its close adherents be aware of the inequalities that exist across the globe, systematic and indirect as they may be today.
My apologies for the sound quality of the first cut.

Sviatoslav Richter: At Carnegie Hall Volume II, 1960
This solo piano album captures a complete live performance from October 25, 1960, when the celebrated Ukranian pianist Sviatoslav Richter came to the United States by a special arrangement between a Soviet media company and the American Recording Artist Music Corporation. The liner notes say that Richter's tour was originally proposed as a gesture of diplomatic goodwill that would coincide with a visit by then-president Khrushchev, and it was in that way that he came to the U.S. in the same year that he first performed west of the Soviet Union. Richter played five concerts at Carnegie Hall which won wide critical acclaim and apparently made a big impression on the American classical music community. According to the liner notes, Columbia planned to release recordings of all five concerts, but I'm only aware of three concerts that were released in their entirety, the others being an all Beethoven set (Volume 1) and a performance of compositions by Beethoven and Rachmaninoff (Volume 3.) I'm given to understand that Volume 2 is the most sought after in the series. The sound on this album is clearly live and even a little bit raw in parts, but there is an energy and charm on this recording that I haven't found in many albums that were recorded in state of the art studios.
Richter's reputation apparently preceded him in the U.S. and his concerts were highly anticipated, with musicians and music lovers alike flocking to Carnegie Hall to experience his musical mastery firsthand. According to all the news articles excerpted in the liner notes, the audience reaction after the fact was even more enthusiastic. In reference to this specific performance, one critic reported hearing "a new and great Debussy." If you listen, I'm sure you'll be able to hear the magic that these critics were describing, but I also read the amazement in these reviews as reactions to how deeply this Soviet pianist shared their aesthetic preferences. I can't imagine that the optimistic possibilities entailed in this moment were lost on many of the audience members, and I like to think that it accounts for at least a small part of the joy in their applause.
I'm sure there are a lot of different ways to explain what happened in the intervening years between this concert and the Cuban Missile Crisis, but in any case the event demonstrates the irrationality of mass fear that plagues many modern societies in which too many people religiously integrate official narratives into their worldviews. This concert showed that at least some Americans were starting to see through the haze of 1950's anti-communist propaganda. Some say that music is a universal language, but more to the point, it's hard to control how other people interpret it. If in the Soviet Union Richter had any patriotic value as a living national treasure, in the U.S. he was a symbol of how through music, our humanity can disrupt our political tensions. But just two years later, (the Missile Crisis coincided with the two-year anniversary of this concert,) this moment of coming together was swallowed up when Kennedy and Khrushchev himself, neither of whom desired the annihilation of the human race in any way, brought the world closer to destruction than it's ever been.
It seems like an example of convention getting in the way of rational behavior, of bureaucracy taking on a life of its own. But as much as the political system created the crisis, such a standoff would not have been conceivable had Americans not consented to our militaristic brand of diplomacy out of fear. The government sought to manufacture consent through propaganda, but it ended up buying its own story and getting sucked into the panic. This is why fear on a big scale is dangerous, because people can help create it but not control it. Today, some people are a little better informed and more cynical, and it seems like more than before, leaders who spin webs of lies for political purposes lose the trust of many of their citizens. Still, as we can see this very moment in Russia, it takes more than just recognizing a leadership problem to root it out.

Cal Tjader: Puttin' It Together, 1974
Some funky moments on this live album recorded January 1973, especially on the last track Manuel Deeghit. The performances were at Concerts by the Sea, a jazz club on the Redondo Beach pier that lasted until at least the mid 80's. The club was run by Howard Rumsey, the bassist and founding member of the legendary West Coast jazz band the Lighthouse All-Stars, which featured some of LA's best jazz musicians of the 1950's. Through playing and hosting concerts, Rumsey has contributed to the Southern California jazz scene for most of his life. He is 94 years old and continues to play sporadically, most recently (to my knowledge) in a tribute to Stan Kenton last October.
Puttin' It Together shares most of its cast with the more popular Live at the Funky Quarters (San Diego) record that came out in 1972. On this album, Mike Wolff replaced Al Zulaica on piano and Tjader added Bob Redfield on the guitar. Ed Bogas, who produced Live, also co-produced this album and Jim Stern stayed on as the engineer. Like many prolific jazz musicians, Tjader's sound changed a lot over the years and although the Latin influence was a thread throughout his career, he was really versatile. For me, the funky semi-electric music that he got into in this era is some of his heaviest.

this is an editorial i made for my topics and issues in design class. this is how i interpreted the words "play with colour."
NPF 558 - Issues in Design
Project #1 - Play With Colour
"Dirty Deeds" by Leigh Farrell
By taking the words "play" and "colour," and applying them to my favourite hobby (fashion photography), I have come up with an eerie, yet humorous editorial spread.
I looked at the idea of "play" as role-play, which is often thought of in a sexual way. I steered away from the sexual connotations and was looking for ways to juxtapose roles in a thought-provoking way. Through this train of thought came the concept of switching stereotypical roles in society, such as the role of a husband and wife. Women have typically taken on the role of homemaker throughout the years; cooking and cleaning being two primary duties for the housewife.
After sifting through these thoughts, I decided on photographing a man cooking pancakes in the kitchen - a task that one would normally imagine a woman doing.
My personal photography style lacks a lot of colour for the most part, so I toyed with colour in a selective way. I enhanced the primary colours red, yellow and blue in each image, which happen to be the focus of the images, as well. In the spreads, you will find the pancake, syrup, margarine, flour, broom and dustpan stand out from the rest of the images.
Overall, the editorial is arranged to tell a story and bring the viewer full circle, beginning with a pancake, showing the process of it being created and ending with it being eaten.

Professor Chomsky gives the inside scoop to Amy Goodman. Wish I'd been there to hear this dear man answer Amy's questions. He illuminates what happened under Carter also. Remember the firing of Carter's friend and Budget Director, Bert Lance, or the troubles of his Treasury Secretary? No? I hardly can myself and I was paying attention. No wonder the Rethugs can't fathom what's wrong with a little bit of corruption. (Emphasis marks inserted - Ed.)
NOAM CHOMSKY: Well, let's start with G20. If you look at the Financial Times, the world's major business journal, the day before the G20 meeting, they had a section on it, and they pointed out, I think correctly, that the main purpose is to present a picture of harmony and agreement. It doesn't matter what you do, but make it look as if we're all together on this. Now, there are sharp splits about how to approach the issue, but you have to make it look as if we're all together. That's pretty much what happened.
Now, in the communiqué, which you read before, the crucial word was "voluntary." So, the countries there are supposed to voluntarily choose to do x, y and z. Well, that means we couldn't make an agreement. So we'll call it voluntary agreement.
Now, there was one point on which they agreed: a sharp recapitalization of the International Monetary Fund; pour a lot of money into the IMF. That's a pretty dubious move. I mean, the record of the IMF has—the IMF is more or less a branch of the US Treasury, even though it has a European director. Its past role has been extremely destructive. In fact, its American US executive director captured its role when she described it as "the credit community's enforcer," meaning if a third world dictator incurs a huge debt—people didn't, but the dictator did; say, Suharto in Indonesia—and then the debt defaults, the lenders, who have made plenty of money because it was a risky loan so they get high interest and so on, they have to be protected, meaning not by the dictator, by the people of Indonesia, who are subjected to harsh structural adjustment programs so that they can pay back the debt, which they didn't incur, so that we can be compensated, rich Westerners can be compensated. So that's the IMF, the credit community's enforcer, a very destructive role in the third world. Now it's to be recapitalized.
Now, there's discussion about this, and it's interesting. You can read it in the financial pages. The supporters of the recapitalization say, "Well, the IMF has changed its spots. It's going to be different from now on. We realize that it had this terrible role, but now it's going to be different." Well, is there any reason to believe it will be different? In fact, if you look today, it's quite striking to see the advice that the Western powers are following, the programs that they're following, and compare them to the instructions given to the third world.
So, say, take Indonesia again. Indonesia had a huge financial crisis about ten years ago, and the instructions were the standard ones: "Here is what you have to do. First, pay off your debts to us. Second, privatize, so that we can then pick up your assets on the cheap. Third, raise interest rates to slow down the economy and force the population to suffer, you know, to pay us back." Those are the regular instructions the IMF is still giving them.
What do we do? Exactly the opposite. We forget about the debt, let it explode. We reduce interest rates to zero to stimulate the economy. We pour money into the economy to get even bigger debts. We don't privatize; we nationalize, except we don't call it nationalization. We give it some other name, like "bailout" or something. It's essentially nationalization without control. So we pour money into the institutions. We lectured the third world that they must accept free trade, though we accept protectionism.
Take the "too big to fail" principle, which the House committee is discussing today. But what does "too big to fail" mean? "Too big to fail" is an insurance policy. It's a government insurance policy. Government means the public pays, which says, "You can take huge risks and make plenty of profit, and if anything goes wrong, we'll bail you out." That's "too big to fail." Well, that's extreme protectionism. It gives US corporations like Citigroup an enormous advantage over others, like any other kind of protection.
But we don't allow the third world to do that. I mean, they've got to privatize, so that we can pick up their assets. Now, these are happening side by side. Now, here's the instructions for you, the poor people; here's the policies for us, the rich people. Exactly the opposite. Is there any reason to think the IMF is going to change it?
AMY GOODMAN: Do you think President Obama is any different than President Bush when it comes to the economy? And if you were in the Congress, would you have voted for the bailouts and the stimulus packages?
NOAM CHOMSKY: He's different. I mean, first of all, there's a rhetorical difference. But we have to distinguish the first and the second Bush terms. They were different. I mean, the first Bush term was so arrogant and abrasive and militaristic and dismissive of everyone that they offended, they antagonized even allies, close allies, and US prestige in the world plummeted to zero. Now, the second Bush administration was more — moved more toward the center in that respect, not entirely, but more, so some of the worst offenders, like Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and others, were thrown out. I mean, they couldn't throw out Dick Cheney, because he was the administration, so they couldn't get rid of him. He stayed, but the others, a lot of them, left. And they moved towards a somewhat more normal position.
And Obama is carrying that forward. He's a centrist Democrat. He never really pretended to be anything else. And he's moving towards a kind of a centrist position. He's very popular in Europe, not so much because of him, but because he's not Bush. So there is the kind of rhetoric that the European leaders and, in fact, the European population tend to accept. In fact, you know, even in the Middle East, where you'd think people would know better, they accept the illusions. And they are illusions, because there's nothing to back them up. So, yes, he is different from Bush.
Same — on the economy, well, you know, the current Obama-Geithner plan is not very different from the Bush-Paulson plan. I mean, somewhat different, but circumstances have changed. So, of course, it's somewhat different. But it's still based on the principle that we have to — somehow, the taxpayer has to rescue the institutions intact. They have to remain intact, including the people who, you know, destroyed the economy. In fact, they are the ones who Obama picked to fix it up.
AMY GOODMAN: Explain.
NOAM CHOMSKY: Like Larry Summers, for example, who is now his chief economic adviser. I mean, he was Secretary of Treasury under Bill Clinton. His great achievement was to prevent Congress from regulating derivatives, exotic financial instruments. Well, that's one of the main factors that led to the crisis.
His kind of senior adviser, one of the first, was Robert Rubin, who was Secretary of Treasury right before Summers. His main achievement — many achievements, like what he did to Indonesia and the third world, but here, his main achievement was to lead the way to revoke the Glass-Steagall legislation from the New Deal, which protected commercial banks from risky investments. It broke down those barriers. Immediately after having done this, he left the government, joined Citigroup as a director, and they began to make huge profits, including him, from picking up insurance companies and so on and making very risky loans, relying on the "too big to fail" doctrine, meaning if we get in trouble, the taxpayer will bail us out, which is just what's happening, taxpayers now pouring tens of billions of dollars into rescuing Citigroup.
Well, these are the advisers who were supposed to fix up the system. Tim Geithner was right in the middle of this. He was head of the New York Federal Reserve, so, yes, he was supervising these actions. Now, you know, you can argue about whether they're doing the right thing or the wrong thing, but are these the people who should be fixing up the system?
Actually, the business press just had some interesting things to say about this. Bloomberg News, you know, main business press, had an article in which they reviewed the records of the people who Obama invited to his economic summit. I think it must have been last November or December. They just reviewed the record. I think there were a couple dozen of them. People on the — you know, people like, say, Stiglitz, Krugman, they were never even allowed close to it, let alone anyone from the left or labor and so on, given token representation. So they went through the records, and they concluded that these people should not be invited to fix up the economy. Most of them should be getting subpoenas because of their record of accounting fraud, malpractice and so on, and helping bring about the current crisis.
AMY GOODMAN: Why do you think Obama chose to surround himself?
NOAM CHOMSKY: Because those are his beliefs. I mean, his support comes from the — his constituency is basically the financial institutions. Just take a look at the funding for his campaign. I mean, the final figures haven't come out, but we have preliminary figures, and it seems to be mostly financial institutions. I mean, the financial institutions preferred him to McCain. They are the main funders for both—you know, I mean, core funders for both parties, but considerably more to Obama than McCain.
You can learn a lot from campaign contributions. In fact, one of the best predictors of policy around is Thomas Ferguson's investment theory of politics, as he calls it—very outstanding political economist—which essentially—I mean, to say it in a sentence, he describes elections as occasions in which groups of investors coalesce and invest to control the state. And he takes a look at the formation of campaign contributors, and it gives you a surprisingly good prediction of what policies are going to be. It goes back a century, New Deal and so on. So, yeah, it can predict pretty well what Obama is going to do. There's nothing surprising about this. It's the norm in what's called political democracy.
AMY GOODMAN: Would you have let Citibank, would you have let Citigroup, would do have let the AIG fail?
NOAM CHOMSKY: Well, there are other possibilities. So, the government could just take over the viable parts. And parts of them are functioning; parts are dysfunctional, like the toxic — what they call the toxic asset parts, you know, the financial manipulations.
Well, one thing you could do, which has been suggested by a number of economists like Dean Baker, just take over the good parts, essentially nationalize them, put them under public control. And "nationalize" means public control, at least if you have a democracy. Not here, but if you had a functioning democracy, it would mean let them be under public control, and the parts that are responsible for the huge losses, just let them go off by themselves. In fact, that would be the way of taking care of the AIG bonuses that everyone's screaming about. In fact, as Baker pointed out, just spin off the parts that were involved in financial manipulations and caused the crisis, let them go bankrupt and let the executives try to get the bonuses from a bankrupt firm, OK, with no legislation necessary. That's what should be done with Citigroup.
And in fact, it's interesting, it's kind of happening. You know, after the breakdown of Glass-Steagall, they did bring in — they made use of it, under Rubin's direction, among others, to take — bring in insurance companies and other risky investors. Now they're divesting them. And they're going in the direction of becoming, you know, commercial bank.
Now, incidentally, this is not the first time this has happened. Paul Volcker is on the news today, you know, saying, "Let's slow down," and so on. Well, he's the one who, under Reagan, who helped bail out Citigroup last time they crashed. At that time they were Citibank. They had followed World Bank and IMF instructions and lent huge amounts of money to Latin America and were assured by the World Bank that it's all fine, you know, markets will take care of it, etc. Well, in a crash, Paul Volcker came in. He raised interest rates very sharply. Third world countries, whose payments are tied to US interest rates, couldn't pay their debts. The IMF moved in, took care of it, and essentially recapitalized Citibank. That's the way the system works: you make risky loans, you make a lot of money, and if you get into trouble, we're here to bail you out, namely the taxpayer.
AMY GOODMAN: And how do the Republicans differ from the Democrats in this? What do you make of—do you see it as just a minor footnote that Republicans, or some of the governors like Palin, like Jindal—
NOAM CHOMSKY: There's a difference.
AMY GOODMAN: — are saying they're not going to take stimulus money?
NOAM CHOMSKY: There's a difference. I mean, we basically are a kind of a one-party state. I think C. Wright Mills must have pointed this out fifty years ago. It's a business party, but it has factions — Democrats and Republicans — and they're different. They have somewhat different constituencies and different policies. And if you look over the years, the population has — the majority of the population has tended to make out better under Democrats than Republicans; the very wealthy have tended to make out better under Republicans than Democrats. So they're business parties, but they're somewhat different, and the differences can have an effect. However, fundamentally, they're pretty much along the same lines.
So take, say, the current financial crisis. Actually, it began under Carter. The late Carter administration is the one that began—was pushing for financialization of the economy, you know, huge growth of speculative financial capital, deregulation, and so on. Reagan carried it much further, and Clinton continued it. And then, with Bush, it kind of went off the rails.
So there are differences, but differences within a pretty narrow spectrum. And anyone who's a little off the spectrum, like Nobel laureates in economics who are a couple of millimeters off the spectrum, they're basically on the outside. You can interview them, but they don't show up at the economic summit.
AMY GOODMAN: How does the global economy and our own economy relate to the issue of war and US foreign policy?
NOAM CHOMSKY: Well, actually, you had a pretty good interview with Joseph Stiglitz about that a couple of months ago, in which he discussed the relationship of — he was talking about the Iraq war. And as you'll recall, he pointed out correctly that the Iraq war, which, first of all, is going to cost trillions of dollars, also had the effect of sharply increasing the price of oil, predictably. And as he pointed out, we could sort of paper that over for a while by a housing bubble, so there was a huge housing bubble which anyone with eyes open could see. I mean, for a century, housing prices had sort of tracked the economy, GDP; then, all of a sudden, they shot way beyond the trend line, which means there's a bubble, and it's going to burst, and you get into trouble. But the housing bubble, which was supervised by Alan Greenspan and with the Democrats — actually, it started under Clinton — it replaced the tech bubble under Clinton, and it gave an illusion of prosperity, which — so you didn't see the effects of the rise in oil prices, which went very high. But if you trace all the connections, yes, there's a clear connection, as he pointed out, between the war and the economic crisis.
And in fact, it's deeper than that. The US is just in a class by itself in military expenses. It basically matches the rest of the world, and it's far more advanced. Well, that's drawn from somewhere. You know, that's money that's not being used to develop the economy.
Now, in fact, you have to add a footnote here, because part of the very high level of US violation of free trade principles is that the economy itself is based on military spending to a substantial extent. So the modern information revolution — computers, the internet, fancy software and so on — most of that comes straight out of the Pentagon. My own university, MIT, was one of the places where all of this was developed under Pentagon contracts in the 1950s and the 1960s.
In fact, that's another critical part of the way the economy works. The public pays the costs and takes the risk of economic development, and if anything works, maybe decades later, it's handed over to private enterprise to make the profits. And that's a core element of the economy. Of course, we don't permit the third world to do that. That's considered a violation of free trade when they do it. But it's the way our economy works. And it's kind of complementary to the "too big to fail" doctrine of protectionism for financial institutions. But the general — we do not have a capitalist economy. We have kind of a state capitalist economy in which the public has a role: pay the costs, take the risks, bail out if they get into trouble. And the private sector has a role: make profit, and then turn to the public if you get into trouble.
AMY GOODMAN: Would you extend that to healthcare?
NOAM CHOMSKY: Well, healthcare is a dramatic case. I mean, for decades, the healthcare issue has been right at the top of domestic concerns, for very good reasons. The US has the most dysfunctional healthcare system in the industrial world, has about twice the per capita costs and some of the worst outcomes. It's also the only privatized system. And if you look closely, those two things are related. And the privatized system is highly inefficient: a huge amount of administration, bureaucracy, supervision, you know, all kinds of things. It's been studied pretty carefully.
Now, the public has had an opinion about this for decades. A considerable majority want a national healthcare system, like other industrial countries have. They usually say a Canadian-style system, not because Canada is the best, but at least you know that Canada exists. Nobody says an Australian-style system, which is much better, because who knows anything about that? But something like what's sometimes called Medicare Plus, like extend Medicare to the population.
Well, up until — it's interesting. Up until the year 2004, that idea was described, for example, by the New York Times as politically impossible and lacking political support. So, maybe the public wants it, but that's not what counts as political support. The financial institutions are opposed, the pharmaceutical institutions are opposed, so it's not — no political support. Well, in 2008, for the first time, the Democratic candidates — first Edwards, then the others — began to move in the direction of what the public has wanted, not there, but in that direction.
So what happened between 2004 and 2008? Well, public opinion didn't change. It's been this way for decades. What changed is that manufacturing industry, a big sector of the economy, has recognized that it's being severely harmed by the highly inefficient privatized health system. So, General Motors said that it costs them over a thousand dollars more to produce a car in Detroit than across the border in Windsor, Canada. And, you know, when manufacturing industry becomes concerned, then things become politically possible, and they begin to have political support. So, yes, in 2008, there's some discussion of it.
Now, you know, this is very revealing insight into how American democracy functions and what is meant by the term "political support" and "politically possible." Again, this should be headlines. Will a proposal come that approaches what the public wants? Well, we're already getting the backlash, strong backlash. And what private healthcare systems are claiming is that this is unfair. The government is so much more efficient that they'll be driven — there's no level playing field if the government gets into it, which is true.So there.

Why Believe Much Will Be Different This Time & How Different From Bush Is Obama? (Chomsky)
Professor Chomsky gives the inside scoop to Amy Goodman. Wish I'd been there to hear this dear man answer Amy's questions. He illuminates what happened under Carter also. Remember the firing of Carter's friend and Budget Director, Bert Lance, or the troubles of his Treasury Secretary? No? I hardly can myself and I was paying attention. No wonder the Rethugs can't fathom what's wrong with a little bit of corruption. (Emphasis marks inserted - Ed.)

Visited abg emi and k. connie yesterday (hubby's sibblings). That was refreshing.. Both couples have a son and daughter each and they're all hyper! Abg emi's youngest is called Tuah Iskandar and he's just so adorable - big head with soft wispy curls on top (he looks cartoonish even! heheh). Well apparently Little Tuah seems to have this fascination with plants. according to k.sha (he's mom) he'll touch any plants he comes across and admire them. and when it comes to huge trees, he'll just gaze up and say, 'Wow...'. I mean, have you ever came across a plant-loving 2 year-old??!! a 2-year-old who appreciates plants enough to pause and admire them?! well this is my first.
when we went over to k.connie's house for dinner that night, Tuah headed for the plants in the balcony and took hold of the branches. he held on to it as if trying to absorb the plant's aura! it was a sight to behold! i should have taken a photo!! after like 5 minutes or so, he let go and charged towards another potted plant! heheh.. goodness, Tuah will sure make a fine hortuculturist one day;)

The decision could reveal the truth about the Federal Reserve–Infowars.com – July 25, 2017
MARKET WATCH-House panel passes bill to audit the Fed –Published: Mar 29, 2017
A House panel on Tuesday approved legislation that would let a government watchdog audit the Federal Reserve's monetary policy decisions, a move bitterly opposed by the central bank.
The House Committee on oversight and government reform passed the measure by voice vote after roughly 30 minutes of debate.
The bill was the brainchild of Ron Paul, the former House Republican and libertarian presidential candidate and sharp critic of the U.S. monetary policy. Versions of the bill have twice passed the House by wide margins but then stalled due to lack of support from Democrats in the Senate and the Obama administration.
Analysts said the measure has a better chance to become law now that Republicans control both houses of Congress and the White House. Paul's son, Rand, the Republican senator from Kentucky, has introduced a similar measure in the Senate.
"It is ironic that the arsonists that caused the financial collapse are now being given credit…for putting out the fire." Rep. Thomas Massie
Democrats in the committee were firmly against the bill.
"This bill would open the floodgates to political interference in monetary-policy making," said Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, a Democrat from the District of Columbia.
Rep. Carolyn Maloney, a Democrat from New York, said the measure would lead to higher interest rates because it would undermine the market's confidence in the independence of the central bank.
Republicans said the measure was needed to rein in the Fed.
"It is ironic that the arsonists that caused the financial collapse are now being given credit…for putting out the fire. Almost every macroeconomist concedes in retrospect that [the Fed's] extended period of easy money led to the financial crisis," said Rep. Thomas Massie, a Republican from Kentucky.
While Ron Paul's 2012 bill stalled and died due to Democrat control of both the Senate and the White House, the 2017 bill has no such hurdles in front of it. In fact, Trump has expressed his support for auditing the fed when Kentucky Senator Rand Paul – son of Ron Paul – introduced companion legislation to Massie's bill in the Senate in the form of S. 16 at the start of the year.
Furthermore, if – and likely when – the bill comes to the Senate, Paul will likely have the support of Democrat Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who has expressed support for the bill as well, and will likely attempt to sway a number of other Democrats to his side.
WIKIPEDIA-The Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2015 (H.R. 24) was a bill introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives of the 114th United States Congress by Congressman Thomas Massie (KY-4). It included proposals for a reformed audit of the Federal Reserve System (the "Fed"). The Senate version was introduced by Senator Rand Paul (R–KY). (S. 264).

Yesterday and today, two blockbuster hit the cinemas here; Ip Man 2 and Iron Man 2, respectively.
The originals to these sequels, one from the East and the other West, has in the past have entertained movie goers a couple of years ago. And now they're back with much anticipation.
I can't comment much, since i've watched neither Iron Man 2 nor Ip Man 2.
But i've watched Iron Man, and i'm really waiting to watch the sequel!
I've read comments on facebook, on how cool both sequels are, up to a point someone came up with this poster.
When East meets West.
Best of both worlds? I suppose i would need to watch the first Ip Man movie before i can understand what goes on in the second movie. Well, time to get a hold of the copy from someone.
Have a good weekend, people!
Love & Peace!~

We've had just over a month to gather guest feedback regarding our "online only" gift card purchase policy last December and wanted to share the results with you. Based on over 50 random guest interviews and staff feedback (we didn't really hire Gallup to conduct this survey) here's what you had to say…
53 percent of guests enjoyed shopping online (convenient; no waiting in line; customizable gift card), while 47 percent preferred the ability to purchase in person (cash payment option; get help choosing a treatment; liked the gift box).100 percent of guests visiting for treatments in December expressed their appreciation of a calmer atmosphere (the reason we implemented this policy). However, the majority of these same guests who received a Raintree gift card at Christmas mentioned how much they missed our signature gift box.So what does this mean? Is it all about the box? Not really (although apparently, Tiffany & Co is not the only contender for box recognition); it's about receiving the Raintree experience year-round.We appreciate how hectic the holiday season can be, and providing a serene atmosphere when you visit for a treatment is of utmost importance to us. However, providing a customer-focused atmosphere when guests visit for any reason is also important to us.
With this in mind, we look forward to seeing you in person, as well as online, for future gift card purchases.
Thank you for your feedback and support in helping us provide the best possible experience for all our guests.
PS: we're standing by for Valentine's Day, gift boxes ready…
The Raintree Team

Rage Against The Machine. Kick Out The Jams
i'm gonna kick 'em out
well i feel pretty good
and i guess that i could get crazy now, baby
'cause we all got in tune
when the dress ing room got hazy now, baby
i know how you want it, child,
hot, sweet, and tight
when girls can't stand it
when you're doing it right
when they're up on the stand
and then they kick out the jams, yes
kick out the jams, i like to kick 'em out
yes i'm startin' to sweat
you know my shirt's all wet
what a feelin'
and the sound that abounds and
resounds and rebounds off the ceiling
you gotta have it, baby
you can't do without
when you get the feelin'
you've got the sounds above
put that mic in my hand
and let me kick out the jams
yes, kick out the jams, got to kick 'em out
so you got to get it up
and then can't get enough
that's what ….
'cause it gets in your brain
it drives you insane, makes you crazy
the …… the faster you funk
if you wanna feed my rocket
till the morning comes
let me be who I am
and let me kick out the jams
yes kick out the jams
i done kick 'em out

Decal close-up photos would be very helpful.
i ask for it but its looks oke at first look?
As stated, decal close ups are essential. But my first impression is no to both. I don't like the looks of the decal on either one and the liner in the gladiator shell looks funny to me. Better photos will help immensely though.
Those are fake decals.
I agree repro decals.

Hi , fake decals , look especially at the way the Luftshutz decal is placed over the top of some very obvious "scratches and marks"! Leon.
