Can we ever deny or overlook the importance of posting on regular basis? We won't for sure as all of us feel the same way.
Now, I want to post second question which can directly strikes the chord of heart.
Have you ever come across any story (which the bloggers have written) in any of the blog posts which you have read? You would have read for sure as they are a source of interest and aspiration. Isn't it?
We want to read such stories often as they directly have an immediate effect in our lives. So, a blog post where the bloggers have resorted to story telling is way more pleasant and charismatic than the ordinary posts which aren't able to hold the interests of others for a long time.
As you go through the following post, you will know some of the best ways which authenticates the importance of story telling.
We want to hear experiences of others
Stories indicative of the fact, that they are the personal experiences of an individual. Therefore, it creates far reaching effect in the minds of visitors. Mainly because of the fact, that others equally want to become like you. It can only happen if you tell them about your journey and the mistakes which you have encountered over the process. What better way to get familiar with the same than by getting to know the experiences. Isn't it?
It is a human psychology that we get swayed by such stories as they help us to overcome the testing times so that we don't commit them in our lives. For the same reason our elders emphasize us to sit with elderly people. Since, as we pass time in their company we infact get to know about their experiences which help us to lead a life in a matured and sensible manner. Same happens with blogging as well.
Every one can easily get inspired as stories are easy to remember
We have a tendency to remember stories since they inspire us to change our lives for the better. All of us want to know the experiences of other people so that we can become a better and polished person. Therefore, the moment you narrate your stories to others by way of your posts, they at once want to read the real life incidents of your life.
Since, not every one of us are comfortable in sharing such incidents, but I believe you don't do any wrong if it can help others in changing their lives for the better while at the same time you are able to get much needed visitors' base as well. Isn't it?
Final words
Finally, this will give you a lot of exposure amongst others. This will equally become a way of boosting your morale, talent and skills. A blogger can be regarded as a public figure who should narrate the things which others (visitors) want to listen and telling stories is simply an awesome way to get more visitors. Isn't it? Hence, you should involve this strategy in order to feel blessed later on.

BEST STEVIE EVER!!!!!! (That is all.)September 22, 2015|
Hi Jenny. I know you don't want spam on your blog, and I'm not just some lurker heh. I've been reading your blog for about a year now. I found a lot of strength in your writing, snf I'm really grateful. I've never done anything like this, asking for help from strangers. I never thought it was appropriate. It may sound ridiculous, but my dog is sick, they aren't sure what's wrong because I didn't have any money for the vets to run blood test or xrays,. One of the vets said it's his spine. I feel like shit because I can't care for something that is mine to care for, he's a little life that came to me, I found him and he found me. He was gonna get hit by a car a year ago, and I picked him up before the car hit him. He was in a parking lot, behind a car. Matted and dirty, hungry. I was going through a lot then, a relationship that resembled the abusive and dysfunctional one my parents shared. My first year without my dad, my mom suffering from horrible major depression, asthma and epilepsy. I felt really lost and a lone, and finding this little dog really helped. It felt like he saved me. I'm hoping maybe you can help me? Maybe tweet my link, or share it? I'm scared he's going to die , and I did nothing to help him. I know I might need to euthanize him, I accept thet. But I don't want him to be euthanized in a shelter. Those places are scary, just being there is traumatic for them. Anything would help. Some of the meds the doctor recommended aren't expensive. Euthanasia for a doggy his size is 50. I just need a little help. I'm looking for jobs, I have been for a while even before he got sick but it's really hard. I don't know if you'll read this. But I wanna thank you anyways, asking for help has always been difficult for me, and your courage kind of encourages me to put myself out here, and make myself vulnerable. https://www.giveforward.com/fundraiser/h87b/help-me-save-chocoSeptember 27, 2015|
I recommend you contact the folks at cuteoverload.com. They routinely put fundraisers of this type on their website, which is geared towards animal lovers. Information on how to submit can be found at http://cuteoverload.com/submissions/.
Best of luck to you and your pup.September 27, 2015|
Thank you so much! I'll look into that right away!September 27, 2015|
I know I'm a week late, because LIFE… this is an awesome Double Steve Bonus Monday. I shall mark this down in my calendar as a day to celebrate Ms. Nicks' induction to this revered group.October 2, 2015|

A visitor in my kitchen today
but today the silly thing decided to come INTO the house to get the crumbs...
and then got panicked and couldn't get out again..
I eventually managed to catch the poor, scared little bird in my hand, it let me gently take hold of it and release it outside again.
but not before it had blessed my kitchen floor.....
Sidney was VERY annoyed that he had missed a "lunch on the wing". I had had to throw him out pronto during the robin catching session, as he came to see what all the fuss was about and wanted to do his own brand of "helping"! so I had to unceremoniously throw him out of the kitchen while we caught the Robin and released it.

I am going to have to watch it if I have the back door open I think, as whilst I am honoured a Robin wants to be with me, I don't think a kitchen with 4 cats in it is a very good place for a Robin to be!
Hello! Thank you for reading my blog and for commenting. I try to reply as quickly as I can and I really appreciate your interest in my life and doings here in The Compost Bin.

Purpose – owned and unownedFriday, March 26th, 2010
One big problem in organisational life comes from the discrepancy that may exist between the stated purpose of an organisation and the actual purpose. Normally we think that we have a purpose, which is our ideal, and what hinders us from reaching it is our human shortcomings. It's frightening and strange to think that there are other purposes at work – are we to think that we're conspiring against ourselves? This is a place where the concept of the system of an organisation helps. Let's say for the moment that this is made up of all the unconscious drives and motives that the human beings in the organisation bring into it. The less these are acknowledged, the more power the unowned motives will have. Far from being frightening, it's liberating to step back from our organisation, in which we invest so much hope and effort, and see what purpose it is trying to realise. A crass example is the organisation with a charismatic leader: the stated purpose may be education, or care, but if we examine the evidence we find that, whilst these are important, they take second place to the aggrandisement of the leader, or his protection from painful self-knowledge. Some anthroposophical institutions make conducting an experiment into consensual decision-making without clear leadership structures into their purpose, sacrificing their stated purpose to this end, even in the face of very strong evidence that their stated purpose is being hindered.
(This is not to dismiss the importance of trying to find appropriate forms of leadership for today; in fact if we examined what 'appropriate' means, we might find that our definition included the idea of enabling us to work to our purpose. )
The mirror we look in when we examine this discrepancy is a great liberation. The problem can of course be on either side: we may need to realign to our stated purpose; or we may need to restate our purpose to include new elements which have become important to us. Then we can integrate these into our mission statement or leading thought, and all stakeholders will have the opportunity to decide whether they can identify with them. In the crass example of the charismatic leader, could we imagine what would happen if the mission statement was recast to say "the purpose of X is to provide Y with an opportunity to realise his aims, and to mirror positive reflection to him in doing this. One of the tasks that enables us to do this is Z (eg education etc)." Leaving the absurdity to one side for a moment, how liberating would that be for all concerned! How much time have I spent agonising to understand how to square my experience of unstated purpose with that which was stated.
To recognise all this is one thing. The next challenge is to find ways of communicating it that don't alienate, but liberate!

I have been on birth control for six years. I was on ortho-tri-cyclen lo up until about 6 months ago my doctor switched me over to Tri-Lo-Sprintec and I haven't had any problems until today. My period doesn't come until the fourth inactive pill, and that's been regular for me for the past six years. Today, my period came four days before the inactive pills. I've taken my pill religiously every day at 8pm this month and I didn't miss any. I did throw up on Saturday (10/1) about 6 hours after I took my pill. This has never happened to me, so I'm wondering if I have anything to be concerned about?
Period came four days before inactive pills on Tri-Lo-Sprintec?

Private poets
An hour past closing time and the door to King's Books is unlocked. I shut it behind me, sealing off the sound of the street—a car braking for a parking space, laughter spreading from smokers outside of Doyle's—and become aware of low voices hidden within the stacks of paper.
I follow the sound beyond the temptation of new releases, curiosity of literary fiction, andunisex bathroom towhere eight rows of folding chairs face a podium and microphone. Kindred spirits have gathered and greet each other in whispers, bending the laws of silence that exist in the company of art. Claiming their chairs, they form a seated orchard of rain jackets with blue jean trunks.
If nothing else, the smell of old books lured them here, I think, planting myself toward the back and wincing when the chair's metal hinges clang. It's the second Friday of the month and the Puget Sound Poetry Connection Distinguished Writer Series is coming to order.
Among the crowd is May's distinguished writer, Josie Turner, the 2011-2013 Tacoma Poet Laureate, whose work has been published in Floating Bridge Review, California Quarterly, and the Blackstreet Review. Like the featured guest poets of months past who have preceded her, she will read her poems for approximately thirty minutes—but don't leave just yet. If you've been here before you already know: come for the distinguished writer and stay for the open mic.
The compassion and sass needed to curate two decade's worth of Puget Sound Poetry Connection events answers to the name Connie Walle. Standing eye-high to the podium, only the spikes of her white hair and the tip of a pen pecking her line of sight, counting bodies in attendance, are seen over the microphone.
"Who's over the age of fifty-five?" Connie raises her spare hand above her head, counts, and then asks, "How many students?"
A few arms extend and Connie squeals. "Our grant loves you," she murmurs through the speaker, referring to the City of Tacoma Arts Commission which has partnered with the Poetry Connection for over twenty years. Housekeeping finishes after Connie tallies the attendees who traveled from outside of Tacoma and hands a plastic donation jug to the audience.
By the time the jug reaches me it's stuffed with dollar bills. I add one more, a small price to pay for poetry and what I'm about to do. The guest poet is almost finished and hasn't disappointed. They never have, meaning I never leave these events without hearing at least one poem that links honesty of heart with clarity of mind, and life makes a little more sense because of it.
Connie thanks the distinguished writer for sharing their work and shifts her attention to the sign-up sheet. The bulk of the night's programming is the twenty or so names on that list—members of the audience who might look familiar because you've seen them standing in line for coffee, walking a Point Defiance trail or populating a taproom.
For 353 days of the year they are the everyday men and women of Tacoma. But here, at King's Books, on the second Friday of the month, they are poets escaped from hiding. On these twelve days of the year there is a stage to host the artist within. If this was a superhero gathering, it would be the one day of the month when Clark Kent reveals his cape and Batman shows off his utility belt.
One by one they approach the microphone and hold up a lens through which their poetry refracts bits of truth about relationships, aging, opportunities lost and gained, the nature of hopes, fears, memories, and dreams. I don't remember reading my poem, only the warm applause that followed me to my seat when it was over.
True to tradition, Connie reads her poem last. Her confident rhythm is a bittersweet note to end on. Sweet because of her natural wit. Bitter because it will be another month's wait for the next meeting of unmarked poets, where there's no cover charge for priceless wisdom.
Puget Sound Poetry Connection Distinguished Writer Series occurs every second Friday at King's Books, 218 St Helens Ave, Tacoma, WA 98402.

HOLLYWOOD, FLA. - How is that online wealth management trend going?
Financial advisors who work in the traditional model (that is, face to-face meetings with some phone calls in between) would probably answer with one of two responses. Theyre losing more customers to it than theyre stealing away; but its not as bad as they had anticipated.
Those were two do the overriding themes in the Bank Insurance & Securities Associations conference session entitled Impact and Importance of the Self-Directed Service Channel.
One of the panelists, Alois Pirker, research director at Aite Group, presented research showing that 21% of financial advisors lose a majority of their clients to online competitors; but the flip side was not a counter-balance as they gained just 7% of new clients from the online segment.
Over the past few yearssince the crisisthere have been a lot of assets and advisors in play, Pirker noted. And the big winners in gaining on both fronts have been the independent channel and online platforms.
For bank advisors, the good news came from the fact that their respective banks online efforts have had a less dire effect on them than they had expected. Almost one-third (28%) expected those efforts to cannibalize their books, while 21% thought it would help (47% expected no impact.) What really happened? Only 22% reported that their books had been cannibalized and 34% said the online effort had helped them (44% reported no impact.)
Jim Goodwin, president of Riperian, also participated in the panel discussion. He noted the general conversation has changed in the past six to nine months. The service that all advisors provide has always been some combination of investments, accounts and advice, he said. And the online world has begun to detach the advice component. So now the big question has centered on the idea of how financial firms can inject an advisory role into a self-directed account and get paid for it.
It will be a difficult accomplishment because the two customer groups are very different, he said.
Self- directed customers are not likely to want a traditional advisory relationship, and vice versa. (He noted that beginning in the late 1990s, advisors started worrying that customers would use their investment ideas to build portfolios online; but it never really happened because the behaviors of those two customer groups are just too different)
Still, within the next year, he says he would expect a couple of companies to figure this out and have a new strategy in place that successfully combined these two ideas.

I understand they use this sronyx as ec as well as bc but can i use it to help my monthly come down? I really feel like its stuck!
Responses (1)
Are you sure you are not pregnant? Your monthly flow doest get "stuck". It is hormones that cause it to happen. If you are not pregnant then your hormones may be out of whack (that's a true medical term there! lol) Birth control pills can sometimes be used to regulate hormones. The only way to find out for sure is to see your gynecologist and find out why your periods are not coming.

The show opens with Vampiro in the bathroom holding a prescription pill bottle. Dario Cueto enters and antagonizes Vampiro by mentioning what happened last week. Dario knows that Vampiro wants to gets his hands on both Cueto brothers but is Vampiro willing to go to that dark place?
Now to the police station where Joey Ryan and an undercover Ricky Reyes aka Cortez Castro are updating their superior on Dario Cueto. Ryan informs her that he has entered himself, Castro, and Castro's partner Mr. Cisco in the Trios Championship Tournament. Castro, or Reyes I guess, doesn't look too thrilled.
Dario Cueto has granted Fenix a rematch for later tonight against Matanza.
Ivelisse vs. Kobra Moon
This was a really really good mat based match filled with great grappling work from both women. Ivelisse continues ascending to the top of the list of performers on the Lucha Underground roster. Kobra Moon is really good as well. This entire roster is stacked when it comes to female competition.
Ivelisse picks up the win with an interesting sunset flip bomb.
After the match we get a nice vignette on Lucha Underground member Killshot. His story is he was in the military, my guess is some sort of special ops sniper class, when he and his squad were ambushed. He made it out alive in a gun battle straight out of Call of Duty however his squad had disappeared and the military said everyone was killed in action, clearly not true. So now Killshot roams the Earth as a completely faceless fighter with no real identity. His hope is that one day his missing squad brothers find their way home.
Famous B gives Mascarita Sagrada his sells speech on how to get fame. The Mack informs Sexy Star that he has been forced to team with Marty "The Moth" and his sister Mariposa in the Trios Tournament. He asks Sexy Star if she could be in his corner for moral support but she is still too traumatized to do that.
A question mark appeared on the Lucha Underground billboard atop The Temple in Boyle Heights.
Joey Ryan and The Crew vs. Marty "The Moth" Martinez, Mariposa, and The Mack
This was a very enjoyable match. Nothing flashy, it was more the story for both teams going into this match. We know about the history between Mack and the Moths, will they be able to function as a unit? I may have said the said this in the previous recap but this was the best performance from The Crew since their inception. Not to mention the crowd seems to really be on their side as well. Differences cause the downfall of the Moth/Mack team as Marty and Mack come to blows. The Crew has this well in hand but Joey Ryan pops in and steal the win for his team. Hey a win is a win I guess.
After the match Mariposa attacks The Mack. Out comes Sexy Star who protects Mack from any more blows. Star looks hesitant at first but something in her must've snapped because she went crazy on Mariposa sending her and Marty running.
After the break we find Dragon Azteca Jr. on the rooftop of The Temple underneath the question marked billboard. He is joined by Rey Mysterio who advises him that revenge will come in time for the death of his and Rey's mentor Dragon Azteca. Mysterio informs him that he and Dragon Azteca Jr. have been entered in the Trios Tournament. Their partner? Prince Puma. This is shaping up to be a great tournament.
Main Event: Matanza Cueto (c) vs. Fenix for the Lucha Underground Championship
Fenix tried his hardest using his speed and quick strikes but it still was no match for the power of Matanza. This guy is like Brock Lesnar with a mask. Complete disregard for the health of his opponent it's just potato pounds for Fenix. This one goes to the outside but even there Fenix is squashed, literally. Matanza makes quick work.
After the match Matanza continues to pound away at the skull of Fenix. At the top of the stairs Catrina yells to stop distracting Matanza from the incoming Mil Muertes! The former champion pounds on Matanza sending him to the outside. Fenix struggles to make it to his feet. We all know the history between he and Mil Muertes. Catching everyone off guard Mil Muertes shows Fenix mercy as the show closes.

Carlito's Way (1993)
4 corrected entries
Directed by: Brian De Palma
Starring: Al Pacino, John Leguizamo, Penelope Ann Miller, Sean Penn
Corrected entry: They play Patti Labelle's song Lady Marmalade. This isn't right for the time line of 1975 as the song wasn't released until 1982.
Corrected entry: Carlito and Gail go to Grand Central Station to catch a southbound Amtrak train to Miami. Such a train would depart from Penn Station, not Grand Central.
Corrected entry: The movie is set in the 1970's. In the scene where Al Pacino goes somewhere in Broadway to see his ex girlfriend performing and when she meets him at the table where he's siting, she orders a Diet Coke. There was no diet Pepsi or Diet Coke or any other sort of diet soda back in the 1970's. They all came out in the early 1980's.
Corrected entry: During one of the last scenes, as cops chase Carlito through NYC's Grand Central Terminal, he runs past a couple of Chase Manhattan Bank ATM machines. Last time I checked, there were no ATMs in 1975.

Comprehensive Error Rate Testing
CMS: Many skilled nursing providers have poor Medicare certification and recertification practicesAugust 22, 2014
The rate of improper Medicare payments to skilled nursing facilities has increased largely due to issues with certification and recertification statements, according to a recently released government memorandum. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services document summarizes requirements that SNF physicians, non-physician practitioners (NPPs) and billing staffs must meet for compliance.
CMS needs to improve oversight of Medicare contractors' error rate reduction plans, report saysJanuary 21, 2014
Too many Medicare providers are receiving improper payments, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services should clamp down by doing a better job overseeing its contractors' error rate reduction plans, according to a new government report.
Lack of documentation accounts for Medicare fee-for-service error rateFebruary 21, 2012
Medicare's fee-for-service error rate for fiscal 2010 would have fallen if compliance contractors had successfully obtained better claims documentation, a federal report found.

I always found time to struggle through Umberto Eco's stuff, even though it was a hard day at the literary coal face. Most literary philosophers are like that, of course; Foucault's Pendulum really made my eyes ache, and as Wiki points out, Anthony Burgess said that it had so many arcane references and allusions that to get all the jokes, you needed an index. Or, a crib sheet. Cliff notes. A tutor...
But, it was always worth the work. Even if you weren't so sure as to what actually went on and how it happened, it was one helluva ride. So, it was nice to be reminded of that this morning when going through The Guardian I found this:
The great philosopher-novelist Umberto Eco once declared that we will always come up against "the hard core of Being" and the "lines of resistance" that tell us when we are talking rubbish, or acting nonsensically. There was a time when I wondered bleakly if Donald Trump may be exempt from this philosophical precept.
The great philosopher-novelist Umberto Eco once declared that we will always come up against "the hard core of Being" and the "lines of resistance" that tell us when we are talking rubbish, or acting nonsensically. There was a time when I wondered bleakly if Donald Trump may be exempt from this philosophical precept.
British political reporter and Guardian Journalist Matthew d'Ancona rattles more than a few chains in Trump's attic and cages in his basement. Muslim Exclusion Act is one part of Being's hard core; the AHCA versus ACA is another; and the whole NATO kerfuffle is another. At some point, the whole house of Cheese will just melt into the Dumpster Fire of his ID and his lackeys' ideological venom and self-dealing desires.
In business, I refer to it as having a great idea trip over a relevant fact. Stainless steel pipe is really spiffy, except when you're using it to handle salt water where it will eat through the metal and leak catastrophically faster than cancer through a colon. You can't get jet fuel out of peanut butter no matter how hard you try. You really can't roller skate in a buffalo herd.
And, being President of a complex and multi-layered tripartite government is not the same as being the sole proprietor of a privately held firm. Nobody really has to listen to what you want in government; it's all fungible. You don't really have any privacy or the ability to just phone it in; when you do, something happens. When you get it wrong, people will notice. Smart people, with long memories, and not all that interested in trusting a con artist, poseur and hype-artist. People way smarter than you who remember insults and slights just as malevolently as you do, but wait for the proper time to get even. How much might Lindsay Graham or Ted Cruz enjoy casting the vote that impeaches his President and casts him out into darkness?
D'Ancona finishes like this, no time for parades and an auto da fe' of Breitbart, Ivanka's lingerie line and The Art of the Deal. At least, not yet. But the time is coming...if you keep smashing into Being's hard core by tripping over facts including "You're not the boss of me and you're not so big" you may be forced to drag you orange ass back to that Florida swamp and hand out timeshares.
To change the metaphor: the waves of Trump's sociopathic belief that he can say and do what he likes with impunity are starting to hit the rocks of reality. There is nothing to celebrate yet, no cause to relax, no outcome assured. Let us just say that this may, conceivably, be the end of the beginning.

one pretty fundamental - yet extremely problematic - form of moral reasoning that people will use to corner you into the hillary/donnie dichotomy. alright you're going to vote for stein (johnson). what if everyone thought like that? then trump (clinton) will win! in other words, you're not only responsible for your own vote in the real world, which has almost no effect, but for other people's hypothetical votes in a possible world.
of course, if everyone thought like me, everyone would be voting for something much closer to their convictions and the political system would pop open like a carnivorous plant, so let's not worry about that. but what is the argument? that i might be persuasive to people? well, that is not a result of my vote per se. that 12.3% of voters are watching over my shoulder as i vote and will imitate me?
in general (i am talking to you, immanuel kant), i think we would do better to think about the actual principle of our own actions and the actual effects of our actual actions in the actual world. being responsible for that is more than enough, and the only thing that has you reasoning about reality. i would try to show how such an approach would not necessarily be sheer individualism or environmentally disastrous, etc. but whether i can or not, you had better have an argument handy that i should be responsible for the non-actual effects of my action in a non-actual world.

i'm gearing up to teach the writings of the amazing quaker saint john woolman, who in the mid-1700s was arguing for indian rights and the immediate abolition of slavery, and traveling around trying to convince masters to free their slaves, etc. in his rather remarkable essay "a plea for the poor", he argues as clearly as can be for peter singer's 'effective altruism': the idea that we have a moral obligation to devote most of our resources above subsistence to helping those in need. really, quite the same argument as singer.
more surprising, perhaps, is that in 1763, for god's sake, he's arguing straight up for reparations to the descendants of slaves, and calculating what they should be.
Having thus far spoken of the Negroes as equally entitled to the benefit of their labour with us, I feel it on my mind to mention that debt which is due to many Negroes of the present age. Where men within certain limits are so formed into a society as to become like a large body consisting of many members, here whatever injuries are done to others not of this society by members of this society, if the society in whose power it is doth not use all reasonable endeavours to execute justice and judgment, nor publicly disown those unrighteous proceedings, the iniquities of individuals become chargeable on such civil society to which they remain united. And where persons have been injured as to their outward substance and died without having recompense, so that their children are kept out of that which was equitably due to their parents, here such children appear to be justly entitled to receive recompense from that civil society under which their parents suffered. . . .
Suppose an inoffensive youth, forty years ago, was violently taken from Guinea, sold here as a slave, laboured hard till old age, and hath children who are now living. Though no sum of money may properly be mentioned as an equal regard for the total deprivation of liberty, yet if the sufferings of this man be computed at no more than fifty pounds, I expect candid men will suppose it within bounds, and that his children have an equitable right to it. Fifty pounds at three percent, adding the interest to the principal once in ten years appears in forty years to make upwards of one hundred and forty pounds.
i wonder whether anyone else was making arguments like that in the 18th century.

Crispin has a great piece as a part of The Stone series on the NY Times today. As a friend, occasional co-conspirator and one-time Vice Presidential Candidate for the Defeatists!, I;m really happy for him and recommend the article enthusiastically.
I sense that like me, Crispin has been taking a vacation from giving a damn about US presidential politics, but occasionally feels pulled back into it. Certainly, in the progression of American culture, presidential politics, choices and elections have been used to make transitions. Kennedy replaced tired, worn out old Eisenhower with vigah! and such -- in reality, drugged to the gills for back pain, suffering from Addisons and various iterations of venereal disease. Ronald Reagan was going to reform everything after the weakness of Jimmy Carter and then should have been impeached for the Iran Contra deal. And so on -- Barrack Obama was supposed to mark out transition to being a post racial nation, and since then we have gotten to continually play out our dark night of the soul in communities all over the country.
Crispin's more populist work, like cheese it, tend toward an ironic approach which was my first reason for reading his stuff. This piece, which comes at least in part from his piece on the Philosophy of Edgar Allan Poe, contains more than a little of it. Basically, one could contend that Crispin examines the idea of human self-improvement as moral and ethical and compassionate human beings.
It's safe to say he approves that outcome, he just doesn't think it's very likely. I suspect most of us will probably agree, at least in part. As I tell the conspiracy freaks who normally read my stuff, if I'm looking for a reason why somebody did something stupid, I opt first for stupidity and then for the seven deadly sins. Dr, King was hopefully correct about the arc of human history being toward justice, but I'd hedge those bets with one's on sloth, gluttony, greed, lust, hatred, anger and pride.
By the way, today is Van Morrison's birthday.

people act like they are literally forced to vote for, say hillary clinton. when push comes to shove, are you going to vote for hillary or jeb? lesser of two evils, etc. no one else can win. but in this and in some other cases, you really are voting for exactly what purport most to repudiate, for exactly the hierarchy you say is the problem, with a slightly different rhetorical patina that somehow engages your social identity, though with no sincerity.
another thing that's supposedly forced in this system is that candidates - and again hillary is and will be an extremely clear case - have to, really have to, float with the polls, or the polling of the party base in the primary process. i am telling you, none of this is forced at all. or: hillary has no choice but to raise billions; she needs to do whatever she needs to do to accomplish that. people who suddenly found gay marriage when it hit 52% in the polls - oh, barack and hillary, for example - will then pay tribute to the memory of martin luther king, an example of moral courage for us all, etc. but you did not have to be a king to endorse gay marriage in 2008, you just had to not be a complete moral coward. they're ready to march over the edmund pettus bridge now that there's absolutely no risk involved. back then, they'd have been telling you that king was too extreme. they try to put passion in their voices so as to inspire you with the fierce urgency of let me focus-group that.
i think people want to feel forced in order not to make even a mildly hard decision. voting third party is not an excruciating choice with terrifying consequences. really it's not. it obviously is not if you live in a state that is clearly going one way or the other, which is most states. and of course it's a self-fulfilling prophecy that just makes it impossible to effect any significant change through the electoral process at all: it makes democracy nothing, really. and then, the idea that obviously a candidate can't possibly honestly represent their real beliefs places extraordinarily low moral standards on politicians. no, guess what: they can say whatever they like. i think in some cases they might be surprised by a good response to that. but if not, then the worst that happens is you lose the election. that is not an unfaceable personal calamity. it's not like a choice where you're picking who has to die or something. anyone can decide to do that anytime they like, and i hope that you expect better than that from any neighbor, colleague, spouse, etc.
also don't let anyone tell you that a vote for a third party is a vote for the republican (or the democrat). i really did prove that false mathematically long ago. and any way you look at it, a vote for, say, bernie sanders in the democratic primary cannot be a 'wasted vote' any more than a vote for hillary clinton, no matter who wins. indeed, if she's going to win no matter who you vote for, a vote for her is certainly wasted. and really, if you vote for a person whose real positions or whose persona you don't believe or believe in, or in the worst case whose positions or persona you on reflection repudiate, you are certainly wasting your vote.

The news that the United Auto Workers lost a union election at a Nashville VW plant has sent the labor movement into something of a what the hell just happened spin. Unfortunately, I think that the results were preordained, back in about 1863. We have an interesting history in this country of well meaning northerners going into the backward and dirty south to enlighten these poor sons and daughters of Dixie, and it just doesn't work because the Northerners aren't trusted and the track record hasn't been all that great.
Hell, the post-union industrialization of the South wasn't by VW but it was by Northern Manufacturers who realized that they could make a lot more money moving steel from Pittsburgh to Birmingham and screw the workers in Birmingham a lot less than they were being screwed by their own boss class, but screw them a lot more than they were screwing over their own workers in the North. One might write an interesting history of American Expansion and Exception as a race to exploit the more easily exploited at cost to the somewhat less exploited. Now, the industrialization of the South screwed over a lot of people, and the big companies took the blame; it was possible to find Southern bosses and they did. Reconstruction ultimately turned out OK for the Southerners although not ideal from their point of view; hence the 100 year affiliation to the Democratic party although not necessarily the party of Roosevelt and Johnson but something else entirely.

Billy Yank and Johnny Reb compare resumes There's a wonderful moment in Gettysburg when an Officer of the 2oth Maine is talking with some Southern prisoners, primarily with a private. It's pretty interesting in that I think it's incredibly real and captures something that we miss at times. They ask each other where they're from, and the Rebel says, "Tennessee. How about you?" The Yank says, "Maine. I've never been to Tennessee." The Reb says, "Don't reckon I've ever been to Tennesse either."

I really don't like that bloody thing. Upworthy -- what the hell does it even mean? It's kind like RL Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verse which some people find poetic but I always found it to be saccharine, maudlin "why the hell did they give me this instead of the book about Vikings I wanted" even when I was a kid. But, in the words of the old Russian proverb, Даже слепая свинья находит желудь иногда, or as we say in Dusquesne, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THIS SCREWY INTERFACE?
Ok, it's ok now. Actually, it translates like this...
Charlie: You're getting on. You're pushing 30. You know, it's time to think about getting some ambition. Terry: I always figured I'd live a bit longer without it. --
Anyway, there is also music provided by that twanging philosopher, Mr. Dwight Yoakum. But, watch the Ted Thing and I know you'll like it
And if you're taking a course in Aesthetics and Politics with Herr Professor Doktor Sartwell, compare and contrast values based on this contrasting versions of the Clash piece by Mr. Yoakum and Ms. McColl with extra credit if you can describe the similarity in the personal sitations of Ms. McColl and Mr. Strummer in 2012. Guaranteed C-, I tell you. Trust me. I used to be in govenment...

one thing that is typical of our scientistic moment, as in the late nineteenth century, is the idea that we can derive morality or moral values from evolution. now, i am afraid not, and i will briefly state the overwhelming problems.
(1) the classical is/ought problem: evolution cannot account for normative force or moral claims. so let's say it was counter-evolutionary to take your stuff. is that a reason not to take your stuff? you might have many good arguments that it's wrong to take your stuff, but the idea that i am swimming against the tide of evolution might be met with a mere shrug. what if it turned out that some forms of violence or crime were adaptive? would that show that they were right? also evolution makes use of counter-adaptive behavior as much as adaptive behavior. acting counter-adaptationally is necessary to the progress of the species, and i and my offspring will pay the price if in fact i am so acting.
(2) the basic inference has to be from actuality to etiology: arguments from evolution start by presuming that we are what evolution made us. so look: staring squarely at the data, we ought to speculate that both what we would think of as good behavior and bad have been selected for, insofar as we so stubbornly display both. insofar as evolution has selected us, it has, obvioously, selected both cooperation and competition, good and evil, happiness and pain, and so on. it appears, like the rest of nature, to be morally indifferent. if it was really selecting against theft or individualist philosophy or something it should have done better than it has so far in weeding out thieves and individualists.
in short if you want ethics without god you are going to have to find it elsewhere.

one thing i'm puzzled about: the ethical stance, associated with the left at the moment, where the question is 'what if everyone did that?' what if no one recycled? what if everyone had five kids or drove a car that got 20 mpg? sometimes i share the intuition. sometimes i doubt the effects would be as described. you can get some pretty draconian stuff out of this, like it makes an argument that everyone should live urban, for example, which reduces your carbon footprint but might tend to delete in important respects everyone's relations to non-human nature, with incalculable long-range effects. in some ways it's a sort of an extension of the golden rule or the categorical imperative: live as you could want everyone to live. it sounds sensible.
on the other hand it sounds crazy. what if everyone was a philosophy professor? imagine the social costs! what if no one read novels? the publishing industry would collapse! what if everyone raised tomatoes? too many tomatoes! what if, at 3pm, everyone in the whole world stopped what they were doing and watched general hospital? it would be incumbent on someone who was trying to tease this into an ethical theory to distinguish cases where one ought to from cases where one needn't or ought not calculate the effects of everyone doing 'that'; possibly some thinkers have had a go.
now, when i choose to live rural, should i ask myself what would happen if everyone lived rural? why, exactly, when it's so obvious that not everyone will? many of my own beliefs and even actions are, i admit, taken precisely because in fact most people don't do 'that.' so how would we work in that sort of impulse? now, i guess it's ok until you get the point of using it as a taser: like, requiring people to live as would be best if everyone lived like that (note, with the effects anticipated this week by experts or faddists or scientists or or bureaucrats or whatever).
i do think it's kind of an interesting way to generate ethical intuitions: something you should ask yourself. however, when you get right down to it, i am not going to take responsibility for a kind of sci-fi hypothetical counter-factual scenario. i have enough trouble trying to take responsibility plainly for what i actually do and the effects what i actually do has on what actually happens (including what happens to other people, of course).
the intuition engine turns us into a vague collective cloud, but not even that: it asks you to operate morally in a world that does not or cannot exist, and as a person who cannot exist: a general person. honestly, whatever the truth about climate change, i'm only taking responsibility for my own emissions, which are infinitesimal. but then again, is it even possible for me to take responsibility for my own emissions? like with offsets or something?) probably i am not even paying the costs of my own emissions, and then how could we, or could we, hold individuals responsible in cases like this at all? but what if everyone thought like that?
in some ways the thought-experiement makes everyone responsible for what we do to the world, which sounds good. be the change you want to see etc. but on the other hand, living generally like this might be a way of evading the real effects of what you actually do: what if everyone tried to require everyone else to live as they thought everyone ought to live? possibly a war of each against each.
one thing to note: utilitarianism famously faces the problem that it insists that you judge the moral quality of an action by its effects, but the effects of any given action are very difficult or indeed impossible to foresee. now bloat up this standard to a possible (?) world in which 7 billion people act or believe like you do and try calculating the effects.
but ask yourself this: what would the world be like if everyone lived the same way, had the same values, anticipated the same effects, and so on? maybe we'd merge ecstatically into a very big single thing. we'd be boring until we went extinct, though, which would not take long. so in application to itself, the principle is wacky, or self-consuming. strange, though, but the question also seems unavoidable and important. obviously, i am hostile a bit, because the thing would mess up my indivisualism etc. i started out tio slam but ended up worried.

Highjacking Crispin's site again with JJ Cale and Chuck Prophet, Thomas More and Thomas Hobbes, the Navajo, the Army, Paul Ryan and Tora Bora...it just doesn't get better than this. I think at times there's a better class of reader here than at the other places I babble...certainly the comments I get over at Veteran's Today give me a lot of pause. Anyway, this has been a complex piece to get my teeth into...for a variety of reasons. So, here we go...
The number of broken promises and bad judgments made over the last 30 years is incredible. Each bad judgment ends up causing more broken promises. However, the majority of the problems I see – crumbling infrastructure, lousy schools, increased long-term unemployment, mounting debt, lagging modernization, lack of a coherent energy plan and so on and on and on as well as what has happened to Native Americans, Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Coast Guardsman, Civil Servants, Labor Unions, and on and on comes from the idea that we don't have the wherewithal to pay for what we need to do. That is bullshit.
To be educated, a person doesn't have to know much or be informed, but he or she does have to have been exposed vulnerably to the transformative events of an engaged human life.Thomas More

I've been quiet even though there have been a lot of things I've wanted to chime in on. However, the murder of Trayvon Martin has provoked a response. When exactly did behavior by self-appointed guardians of the people as lousy as the B-Specials in Ulster in 1968, the Klan in 1954, or the Security Forces in South Africa become legal in Florida? Self-defense is a universal defense if there actually is a threat...a black teen armed with skittles doesn't cut it as a defense for murder or Manslaughter 1. Florida is now less civilized than South Africa -- hell, the stats would probably bear us out on this. Sad -- we're less a civil society than we were in 1980...but then, why does that surprise me?
Slante' friends, we need it.

One of the things that binds Crispin and me and my loose collective of malcontented malevolent dissidents, anarchists and engineers is our general aversion to the impact of the totalitarian mind on life, language and discourse. Particularly when afraid -- when they're afraid, they come unglued with weird explanations of events...Orwell could have had fun with that realization because it is when under pressure from the unknown that the basic spiritual bankruptcy and ontological void that is the totalitarian way becomes most obvious. Case in point, China.
Now, China has the potential to explode at any time. It's fairly obvious to anyone with a basic knowledge of Marxist thought that the victory of the Communist Party in 1948 preceded the rise of the industrial proletariat. Pretty much the way that Communism has spread everywhere, by the way, except for the countries in eastern Europe that were conquered by the Soviet Union. So, since the Party still rules the country as a vicious oligarchy, it should not be surprising that the government is terrified of anything that might blow it all up. Tibet, Western China, displaced living lives of misery in Guangzhou and Shanghai...labor unrest, the incredible imbalance between rich and middle class and middle class and poor...disease, famine, water impossible to drink, etc. etc. The place is an economic dynamo sputtering away on top of a volcano.
Which presents a fair amount of hilarity masquerading as WTF? Not unlike Rush Limbaugh confusing contraception with the adult film industry and Israeli fellow-travellers eagerly sounding the drums for a war with Iran because our last religio-WMD-"Make the world safe"-enterprises have gone so well, the Chinese government is definitely after the root cause of problems at all levels. Jezebel picked up a story from The People's Daily that really makes it obvious that fantastic explanations for things is not just a Republican plutocratic art but one shared by totalitarians univerally.
Ok, girl one loses a "remote control" to a rolling door for her home. Girl one is obviously fairly rich for China since this looks like a really bad translation of "Garage Door Opener..." although I suppose it could have been a rolling steel shutter door to a patio or perhaps a French Door with a remote to the patio but, WHAT THE HELL? The silly damn Khardasians don't have remote controlled French doors; Trump doesn't have remote controlled French doors. That makes no sense...even in China, which at some levels, times and places is really like Batman's Gotham City, on meth...So, the kid lost a garage door opener. She decides to kill herself, so she hides in a closet -- another sign that we're dealing with some level of wealth here, there's actually a closet that is not so much in use that hiding in it is possible -- until her little friend comes over. She says she's going to commit suicide, the little friend says, OK, me too and Girl 1 writes down a note saying that she's killing herself over the garage door opener and Girl 2 is doing it because, well, they're friends and it's Tuesday and there's nothing on TV and...they are planning on visiting the Qing dynansty to make a movie of the emperor -- any emperor -- and then going to outer space. Girl 1 tells her sister to "Take Care of the Parents" because it's all about the parents, and they jump in a pool and drown.
Sister? The Chinese still have their one child rule. Only the very well to do and party elites get to have multiple children. WHAT THE HELL? This passes no reality test...but, the inspiration for the suicide is ...TV shows about people travelling in time and marrying royalty.
Yeah, and comic books caused juvenile delinquency and rock and roll and teenage pregnancy and communism. Ask your great, great senile grandmother!
Imagine the dialogue in the TV movie...if you've ever listened to the dialogue in a Chinese TV show, as I did by reading subtitles while there -- you'll recognize it.
Chechette: I lost the garage door remote and have brought dishonor on myself and my family. I must kill myself!
Chongette: I am your best friend. I will also kill myself.
This sounds like a cautionary tale about parenting — if your kid thinks killing herself is a good response to losing the remote control, you might not be sending the right message about the value of everyday objects. But Sun Yunxiao, deputy director of China Youth and Children Research Center, has a different moral in mind:
Schoolchildren are rich in curiosity but poor in judgment, so this kind of tragedy happens in every era. I have heard of children jumping from high buildings after watching an actor flying in a magic show. This kind of imitative behavior is in the nature of young children, but it's very dangerous. So we should give some sort of warning for children on TV programs.

So we should give some sort of warning for children on TV programs.
I'm actually not sure that killing yourself so you can travel back in time and film an emperor (where do you get the camera?) is a tragedy that "happens in every era."...
Being not so sure about the impact of TV on suicides -- childish deaths from imitating superheroes, pro- wrestlers and such in the west aside -- and being slightly alert to conspiracies and coverups, I gotta say, this looks more like a cover-up of something else. There are lots of possibilities -- a spree of mass murder of children with or without child rape, a problem with some powerful "Big Bucks" in the local or regional Party-Wealthy Complex, drug-crazed People's Liberation Army veterans of the unpleasantness in Western China which dwarfs what we are seeing in Afghanistan or saw in Iraq -- but TV is a convenient scapegoat. Always has been and always will be...Dr. Who, in Mandarin drag, seducing the young with opium and time travel.
My money is probably on some sort of Child 44 coverup but who the hell knows about these things? Totalitarian countries are weirder than weird and China's internal dissension, cultural dissonance, and Commie-Confucian-Oligarchic messiness kind of makes it all seem possible, and that's funny in a weird way...and sad.
Another possibility is that this is just some Politboro thug having a shit fit at time travel TV. Again, the oddities of totalitarianism...

Ok. Crusader AXE here. I guess the incredible, inscrutable, incomparable one either wanted me to occasionally put something here for the erudite masses, or he just forgot he gave me permission many years ago. Regardless, I'm glad he did. He gets a better class of reader here than we do at the Defeatists, most of whom appear to be robots.
So, in the proper spirit of the thing. Ok. Yesterday was our 36th anniversary. We are very fond of each other and have a reasonably complex financial life that would make disengaging difficult. We don't want to cause the other pain or even inconvenience. I rate this as a successful marriage. We don't hate each other, wish the other grevious harm, and try not to act contrary to our mutual best interests.
That said, we got married on Friday the 13th. My thought, being a strategic thinker, was that this way I would not forget both Valentine's day or the Anniversary and hopefully, one would key my brain as to the other. Generally has worked...I see the Valentine's bullshit in the stores, and it triggers the response that I need to do something to commemorate the day so as not to violate the "first, do no harm or cause unnecessary pain" part of my ethic. It does not make me happy. This makes me happy...
I hate Valentine's Day. It is part of the conspiracy of the consumer society that begins in pre-school to make us all ready for a life of disappointment and conspicuous consumption.

hmmmm! san francisco is trying ban the sale of all animals, including, like, goldfish. what do y'all make of that?
obviously, an anarchist can't really endorse the legislative approach. but it would be interesting to think about more and more creatures and things as stuff that cannot be bought and sold. if a cultural consensus started moving that way, it would be an immensely dramatic change: you'd get to 'post-capitalism.' we're a long long way from treating animals that way, of course, and people have been buying and selling animals since the hebrew bible, or long before. it more or less seems to go with the concept of domestication, i suppose, or comes soon thereafter. it seems pretty central to the practice of having pets. but it could be and perhaps should be re-thought.
one would like to think of the national park system, for example, as taking some land out of the possibility of ownership, or moving it into collective ownership. and to some extent these are not mere ideologies, even if in other respects state ownership is anything but collective ownership. but the national park system is actually a reasonably good anti-anti-statist example (something which, in my own head, i've found a little difficult to square with my position), and it comes at least with the notion that some plants (redwoods) or inanimate/animate ecosystems (the grand canyon, say, or the tetons) are beyond ownership. if we could cultivate this attitude, it would change our relation to the world.

I was the first person in Sweden to receive an adapted car where I can stay in the wheelchair while driving.
I have developed a sling by myself and I travel around to exhibit it at trade fairs and similar, so the car is a prerequisite for me to be able to do my job. I also paint and often load the car up with paintings that I take to art galleries and similar places. The car makes me independent and that's something that I value very much.

Dr. Clifford N. Lazarus
The Lintons really tried to be good parents. They seemed to think that if they provided adequate food, clothes and shelter, sent their children to church, taught them not to use foul language, and punished them when they stepped out of line, their parenting obligations would be satisfied.
Parenting is perhaps the toughest, most demanding, challenging and responsible job anyone can ever have. But there are no schools for it and no competency exams are required. It is strictly "learn by doing."
To practice in any profession where one provides services to the public, most states require a license or certification that can only be obtained by completing an appropriate amount of schooling and passing a competency test. Even marriage requires a license (unfortunately, however, a competency test is not a prerequisite!). Bringing another human being into the world requires nothing more than a pair of functional reproductive systems — no training, no competency, no license!
Learning the crucial skills of parenting enables parents to be truly effective, increasing the chances that their children will be able to navigate the labyrinth of life successfully. One of the most valuable gifts you can give your children is a working compass (skills and facts) that can help them succeed in school and work, play and fun, love and intimacy.
Unfortunately, most schools do not include specific courses on how to acquire social skills, how to think rationally, how to control unwanted emotions, and how to be a truly effective parent. Parents must learn on their own how to resolve conflict, be assertive, and manage stress. And they need to discard the poor parenting techniques they may have learned from their own parents.
Of course all children are individuals and possess unique temperaments, needs and personalities, and there is no absolutely correct way to parent. Experts disagree on just what constitutes good parenting styles. However, in the next two segments we will discuss a few helpful hints and useful pointers that most experts do agree on.
Dr. Clifford N. Lazarus is a licensed psychologist, Co-founder and Clinical Director of The Lazarus Institute. In addition to his general psychotherapy practice, Dr. Clifford Lazarus specializes in health and neuropsychology.
Dr. Clifford Lazarus received his B.A., M.S., and Ph.D. in psychology from Rutgers University where he was a Henry Rutgers Research Scholar.

Adele Fluffs Her Lines and RESTARTS Song During Teary George Michael Tribute
Adele se equivoca en los GRAMMYS 2017 |Tributo George Michael [Subtitulado]
The 'Hello' singer fluffed her lines for the second year in a row at the Grammy's on Sunday evening during an emotional tribute to the late pop singer.
Adele was forced to bring her performance to a halt on Sunday evening during as she delivered a teary George Michael tribute at the Grammy Awards.
The 28-year-old singer sang a stripped down version of the late star's hit 'Fastlove' but it appears it all became a bit too much for her as she fluffed her lines and demanded to restart MID-SONG.
Things took a turn for the worse when Adele accidentally sang the uncensored version of the hit to include the line 'all this bulls**t conversation,' which completely threw her off, and she called for a re-do.
"I know it's live TV; I'm sorry I can't do it again, like last year," she said. "I'm sorry for swearing. I'm sorry for starting again. Can we please start it again?"
She added: "I'm sorry — I cant mess this up for him. I'm sorry, I'm sorry for swearing! I'm really sorry. Sorry."
A huge close-up of Adele's face on the screen showed her visible upset, but unluckily for nothing misses the watchful eye of the cameras and she was seen muttering the words "'f***" under her breath.
Oh, poor Adele!
However, the crowd quickly rallied behind the star with an applause, giving her the encouragement she needed to start the track again from the top and boy did she ACE it the second time around!
Adele's eye welled up with tears as she sang the slowed-down rendition of the Wham! song, while members of the crowd which included Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez watched with concern.
Since the performance, rumours have been rife about Adele's state of mind prior, with some claiming she had been "super nervous" about it.
A source told PEOPLE, "She was super nervous going into tonight. She cleared out the stadium for her rehearsal but it went really well."
Adele's fears were understandable following her disastrous performance at the awards ceremony last year.
Her rendition of 'All I Ask' was embarrassingly hit by sound issues, through no fault of her own.
The audience and viewers at home watched on in horror as her microphone fell onto the piano, causing the sound to temporarily cut out.
Maybe third time lucky next year Adele?

Islamic State A Leftist Nightmare
One of the most troubling aspects of our culture, one that separates our time from those previous is the assumption that Evil does not exist. This assumption is rooted in the logic of moral equivalence that lays at the heart of current leftist thinking which views that all actions are a matter of perspective, that whether something is good or evil completely depends on the perspective of the individual.
Such a belief could only become widespread during a relatively peaceful and prosperous time after World War 2 after the evils of the Holocaust and Japanese militarism were exposed and defeated. In the post-war era bad things continued to happen to good people, but it was much easier to ignore them. Meanwhile "Nazi" as an epithet became so overused as to lose all of its power, and every murder has become a "holocaust." As the horror of true evil fades into history, it has been much easier to deny its continued existence.
The success of Islamic State presents a challenge to the moral relativist. Mass media has made clear the nature of IS. Beheadings. Rape. Slavery. It's difficult to argue Evil doesn't exist when you have Twitter and YouTube trumpeting the latest atrocity. Of course that hasn't stopped the Left from trying. Sen. Bernie Sanders blames Bush for Islamic state, which is ironic considering the entity didn't exist until the beginning of Obama's second term. Expect more rewriting of history instead of soul searching from the Left as Islamic State grows. It's a lot easier and less-threatening to one's belief system than facing the reality of IS.
Islamic State is the epitome of leftist nightmares although the Left is unaware of this because of its blindspot towards Islam. If Islamic State were a rising, land-owning Christian cult the Left would be using every means at its disposal to fight it and destroy it. But the Left continues to view Islam not in religious but in political terms, assuming that the basis of IS is political grievance with the West which the Left itself shares.
Islamic State draws its power and reason for existing straight from religious teachings centered on the Koran. They cannot be rational actors in the way the Left and their current standard bearer in the White House want them to be. It's ironic that the ideology dedicated towards multiculturalism and seeing the world from different points of view cannot see the world from the Islamic State's perspective. IS is on a divinely inspired mission, and consequently it sees the world in binary terms: the Righteous doing the will of god, and those standing in the way of the establishment of divine rule on earth.
But eventually one can ignore reality for only so long before it reasserts itself, and there is every indication that Islamic State has the means and the wherewithal to stick around and won't be wished away. With each new atrocity it will become more difficult for the Left to maintain its worldview denying the existence of Evil. How will the Left handle it? Will it disassemble or will it drop much of the naive and morally bankrupt dogma at its core to reform around sound principles reflecting reality?
As an ex-Leftist myself, I'm not holding my breath.
