Vertical and Horizontal Lines
Today I've got a quick post of some nails that I did on my friend recently.
I started off with 2 coats of NYC French White Tip. Then I used a black striper to create the horizontal lines. Then I used the yellow, blue, green, pink and orange Color Club stripers from the Brights set to randomly create the vertical lines!
It's a really fun, bright summer mani! How do you like her nails?

There is growing pressure on the government to do something about the phenomenon of council-run newspapers that are felt to be competing with, and undermining, independent local papers.
Three large regional groups - Archant, Trinity Mirror and Northcliffe - are lobbying the government to outlaw publications that they claim are threatening some of their titles.
One key battleground is in London's Tower Hamlets, where the Archant-owned East London Advertiser is locked into a struggle with the council-owned East End Life .

It's once again time for the annual yard sale of yard sales!!! The following was printed in this morning's Birmingham News!
"The 127 Corridor Sale, commonly known as the World's Longest Yard Sale, is less than a week away. Hard-core sellers and treasure hunters alike have made their reservations and gotten their wad of dollar bills. But the casual hunter can make big discoveries on the southern end of the sale with minimal preparation.
The sale extends from Gadsden to West Unity, a town on the southern tip of Ohio. It officially runs Thursday through Aug. 9, but lots of folks set up their tents and tables as early as Tuesday; Saturday tends to be the peak day. Last year 4,000 sellers showed their wares along the route. "
Next Saturday will be my first time to visit....I am so excited!!! The article suggests that new shoppers plan on covering about 100 miles each day. Knowing how I like to meet and greet fellow thrifters plus look over every single item, I think we're aiming for maybe 25 miles!!! I can only imagine the wonderful finds that will be there. If you are a "thrifty hound," this would make a great vacation! Click here to go to about.com for more information.

Those who are rich or relatively rich in America are responsible for much of our consumption. By some estimates, the top 20% of income earners in the U.S. are responsible for more than half of all money spent.
In an effort to cash in on that elite group, one exchange-traded fund, the Claymore/Robb Report Global Luxury fund, focused in on companies that generate most of their revenue from sales of luxury goods. In hindsight, it couldn't have come public at a worse time.
Why it seemed like a good idea
When the fund started back in mid-2007, investors' views about America and the world were fundamentally different than they are now. Many expected the rich to keep getting richer, with new wealth being created in emerging countries that would lead to increased consumption throughout the world. If that had happened, luxury purveyors would probably have seen their top lines continuing to grow, and their stocks would likely have continued to perform well.
In particular, the fund offered a quick way to get instant diversification into dozens of companies. The stocks the ETF holds include both American and international companies, including Mercedes maker Daimler
What happened
As it turned out, the ETF's timing was terrible. Once the recession hit, consumer spending fell sharply even among the rich, and the ETF lost 50% of its value in 2008. In particular, auctioneer Sotheby's
But there were other reasons why you might not have wanted this ETF in your portfolio. A main consideration of any fund is how it fits in your overall investment plan. You may already own a number of its top holdings in your other funds, or perhaps as individual stocks.
You may also be turned off by its fees. The fund's annual expenses of 0.70% aren't completely unreasonable, but with broad-market index funds, such as SPDR Trust
What to look for
The key is that whenever you study any ETF, make sure you look at it from several angles. Don't just look at its returns. Don't just look at the broad index or narrow niche it tracks. Look at those factors in combination with its fees, and the fees and returns for similar offerings. Compare its performance to its benchmark index, as well as competing offerings. Aim to get the biggest bang for your bucks.
In addition, realize that many ETF offerings seek to capitalize on prevailing trends. That can work out great for investors when those trends persist -- but if they reverse quickly, as happened with luxury sales, then shareholders often end up paying the price.
In any event, I encourage you to learn more about ETFs by visiting our ETF Center. It features information on how ETFs stack up against mutual funds, how to develop an investment strategy with ETFs, how to avoid pitfalls, and how to steer clear of ETF impostors.

WINDHAM, Maine (NEWS CENTER) — When Erica Croxford of Windham was diagnosed with breast cancer, her first thought was for her two-year-old daughter, MacKenzie. She was very worried that the illness would take away her ability to be a good parent.
When Erica shared her fear with her oncologist, she says she got one of the best pieces of advice she has ever received: "be present".
"Kids need their moms," Croxford says, "So it didn't matter to me, or to her, if I didn't feel well or not. I just tried to not let her see that I didn't feel well. I just tried to take every moment, whether it was a game or playing outside if I had the energy, and just really have time with her."
Erica tells NEWS CENTER's Sharon Rose Vaznis how she put that advice into practice.
Erica says those two simple words 'be present' helped her everyday to stay focused on what was really important and to spend meaningful time with her daughter.
Although her daughter was young, Erica says she knew that something was going on with her mom and MacKenzie would mention things when mommy's body would be healthy again.
Erica says her daughter gave her the fighting power she needed to beat breast cancer and remembering to be present helped her stay focused.

The Campaigner
My little project that has kept me away has progressed into its next phase. This means I have something to show you!
Yes, as if putting together a webzine wasn't enough, I have decided to put my money where my mouth is and start production on a fully fledged print publication. So far I have cleared the first couple of hurdles. Those being, deciding to embark on this foolish endeavour, and then setting up the ground work to build on.
This has meant finding a printing and distribution system, deciding on a name, registering URLs, securing web space and a host of other fun little setup jobs. But things are progressing now.
The interim website is up, while the fully fledged site is in development. You can get onto there and read a little about what The Campaigner is going to be about, and what it hopes to accomplish.
Don't be worried, though. This in no way means the end of Inane Courage. The content blackout may continue for a short while longer, while I get The Campaigner up and running. But I assure you, I will be back with the usual dubious quality content.

30 March 2018Hot off the Press
The US' recent expulsion of Russian diplomats over Moscow's alleged role in the poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter in England has been answered in kind, with the Russian Foreign Ministry ordering 60 US diplomats to leave the country by April 5.
The US consulate general in St Petersburg will also be closed.
Shortly before the announcement was officially made by the Russian Foreign Ministry, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told a press briefing: "The measures would be reciprocal … they include expulsion of the equivalent number of diplomats and they include our decision to withdraw our agreement to allow the United States' general consulate to operate in St Petersburg. As for the other countries, everything will also be symmetrical in terms of the number of people from their diplomatic missions who will be leaving Russia, and for now that's pretty much it."
The US State Department said on Thursday that Russia's decision to expel the diplomats showed the Kremlin is not interested in diplomacy.
"It's clear from the list provided to us that the Russian Federation is not interested in a dialogue on issues that matter to our two countries," spokeswoman Heather Nauert told reporters, adding, "We reserve the right to respond."
Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were found unconscious on a park bench in Salisbury, England on March 4. It was later revealed by British authorities that the pair were exposed to a military-grade nerve agent developed by the Soviet military in the 1970s.
A little more than a week later, British Prime Minister Theresa May said in a statement to Parliament that it was "highly likely" the Russian Government was behind the attack.
Moscow vehemently denies its involvement in the attack on the Skripals and has repeatedly asked for samples of the substance to assist in the investigation.

Turkey and the former Soviet Union republics branched out in new directions during 2006, producing $9.6 billion in ABS and MBS issuance tracked by ASR. While Turkey captured the highest volume, with $5.7 billion in deals, the underlying collateral lacked variety. Originators there tapped only diversified payment rights (DPRs). Russia supplied a more varied array of assets, with originators collateralizing residential mortgages, consumer loans, auto loans, leases and DPRs for a total of $3.4 billion in deals. For Russian mortgages and leases, it was the first time.
"The story of 06 was clearly Russia," said Daniel Mumzhiu, analyst of business development. "The volume of [structured finance] issuance was an 18-fold increase from 2005."
Mortgages have been widely touted as the asset class with the greatest untapped potential in Russia. The country's first RMBS came to fruition in July, with state-owned Vneshtorgbank as the originator, and was followed only a month later by CityMortgage's own deal. Gazprombank followed suit in December, issuing a Fannie Mae-style purchase of collateral from a wide range of originators. While future flow deals from Russia were fewer - they numbered only three - they amounted to nearly $1.4 billion, roughly 40% of total volume. Standing apart from Turkey, all the deals out of Russia last year were unwrapped.
Kazakhstan, meanwhile, came out with $500 million in DPR deals. Apart from a mortgage warehouse facility set up by ABN AMRO for BTA-Ipoteka, a unit of Turan Alem, the existing asset front failed to yield transactions.
Turkish banks provided a reliable supply of DPR transactions last year. "There continued to be a strong rationale on the issuer side to come to the public and private markets," said one banker with a number of future flow deals under his belt. Turkish banks that tapped the market wouldn't be able to pierce the sovereign ceiling - and hence hit investment grade - with unsecured funding. That kept the all-in cost of DPR deals lower, sources said. What's more, maturities on DPR deals went as far as 10 years last year, far surpassing what originators could achieve in the banking market.
The leading monolines - Ambac, Assured, FGIC, FSA, MBIA, Radian - all wrapped DPR product from Turkey last year. Some had insured their first deal from the country only in 2005. Guarantors' hearty appetite helped push deal sizes to new highs. With wraps from no fewer than four monolines, Yapi ve Kredi placed a $1.2 billion DPR transaction in December, the largest non-government bond ever placed from the country. While the DPR spigot remained open throughout the year, no other future flows trickled out of the country last year.
Turkey was also a source of disappointment for some players. Hopes that a mortgage law would pass dwindled as it became clear that the government had other priorities for 2006 and interest rates shot up in May amid market volatility, slowing down origination. Both factors conspired to kill expectations of existing asset deals from Turkey in the latter part of 2006. This year might be a different story.

Anchorage AK, here we come!
Well, we got our #4 pick on the list of 38 bases. We are really excited about moving to the vast wilderness of Alaska! I have almost always lived in the states at the bottom of the alphabetical list (Wyoming, Utah, Virginia, Washington) , so I guess it's time to move up to the top! I am excited to find out more about the area and start making plans to head back to the western half of the country... I guess AK counts as the west.

Branching Out
Create a tree that reflects the spare beauty of winter by cutting several long branches from trees and shrubs. Arrange the branches in a large urn or other container, anchoring them with blocks of foam or pebbles. Remove the hanger top from an ornament so it's open. Set the ball atop a small drinking glass to hold it steady and fill the bottom fourth of it with water; insert the poinsettia. Tie it onto the tree.

Public Toilet Provision
Posted by Law & Sexuality on 15:25 in Politics PSEs Sex | Comments : 0
Last week the House of Commons Select Committee on Communities and Local Government published their report into the provision of public toilets. The report included a section that addressed the subject of anti-social behaviour and cited my evidence. It was personally disappointing that the committee didn't take on board my recommendations but I hope that by having this stuff out there the Government might make a more sensible response (I fear not). The report can be read in full here. Towards the back of the report you can see the full memorandum I submitted to the committee following a request from them.

Ah ok ... I was able to download pics last night ...
This was the weekend project that nearly sent me to the hospital - ha ha ... but I had wanted to do it FOREVER ... our dining room is not closed off. When you walk into our house you basically walk into a hall. On the right is the dining room ... and it's got three normal walls- the fourth wall is the wall that makes the "hall" part ... so it's sort of an open dining room. On the left side is our little alcove that leads to the two guest rooms and the bathroom. The wall you are seeing here is the khaki wall (doesn't show well in the picture), but just know that directly opposite of what you are looking at, is our red dining room ...
So last year, we painted the three dining room walls red ... and the hall wall khaki (to match the body of the house) and I left the alcove white (as shown above), but I always did want to paint it RED ... to match the dining room. Sort of a contrast wall ... Then Conrad's sister gave us this lovely sign that says "The Love of a Lifetime" (old Firehouse tune!) for our wedding, and the red in it, I thought, would really POP if that alcove was red. So there ya go ... I decided to paint it this weekend ... I went ahead with it and it looks FABULOUS! If you go down to an older post- where I showed the invite my Aunt Robbie did for me (the framed wedding invitation) you can see the whole dining room.
I watch a lot of design shows and red is a popular color, however on the resale shows they always want the homeowners to paint over it- they say it's to "personal" of a color ... and they make them paint over it. But I don't want to. When the house goes up for sale. I want to leave it as is.
This is the reason we're working so hard, by the way ... this is all for resale. Well, so we can live in a pretty house too- but we already know we won't be here in a year .... we just want to do all the projects we need to do NOW instead of getting a laundry list from a realtor and having to pack into into a month. The deck will add value, the custom paint will add value, the new fridge, all the upgrades we are doing- Conrad added a sprinkler system and gutters ... all part of our evil plan.
Anyway- enjoy the before and after!

I listed WolframAlpha back in July of 2009. Things have been moving along with this wonderful tool. I have an app on my iphone which recently they reduced from $50 to $1.99 which was an interesting marketing move. It can also be downloaded for the ipad. If you watch the introductory video you we get an excellent idea what can be done. I just wish educators in Elementary and Secondary schools were taught how to integrate this into their curricula. Here is a link to the video, enjoy! What do you think?

What do you think of these sites?
When reviewing new websites, I think what age and subject most appropriate for the site. I usually come to the conclusion that many sites have a versatility and depends on the viewer. A creative person may use the site for various subjects and ages. I would appreciate your input of what YOU think. Vogel 50x50 is a site about a couple who were art collectors amassing a collection of more than 4,000 pieces during their marriage. Both were civil servants they lived on one salary and the other salary was used for their art collecting. There is also a film on the Vogels that would be a nice complement to this site. It is one of the Netflix films, Herb & Dorothy and worthwhile seeing.
The Global Museum on Communism is a virtual museum, a project of the non-project, non-partisan Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, established on December 17, 1993. This site is packed full of information, I question why the site is not rendered in various languages? Perhaps one day is will be. What enables these tyrannical leaders to come into power and carry out their heinous acts of terror, murder, torture, repression of people and their rights? I find their childhoods reveal a lot, thus my interest and strong desire to address our youth especially those who are troubled.
The third site is an interactive site produced by the Museum of Natural History in New York, Traveling the Silk Road, has lots of interactive parts to it. Just frustrated because either my connection is problematic or the site is too busy or has issues. So I will try it again when I am where connectivity is better! Let me know if you have issues viewing the site.

Here's a video of me trying to make SnapBridge work: https://youtu.be/WZXdPudztQs
More suggestions I forgot to include in the video:
* Drop all but the top-end Coolpix cameras
* Drop the Nikon 1 series (officially)
* USB charging on ALL bodies
* Higher-res images with pixel shifting (requires sensor stabilization, like Pentax, Olympus)
* Flip out screens on everything
* DON'T introduce a new lens mount. If you want to do FF mirrorless, use the F-Mount, and just have the mirror box empty
* Automatically convert & scale raw images for snapbridge
* Put a SIM card in their and sync (some version of) images to Creative Cloud. Requires a partnership with Adobe & wireless service providers.
* Return to producing lenses for other companies, including Canon, Sony
* (via Nigel Holland) Build cameras that use your smartphone as the rear screen. Would require interchangeable grips that perfectly fit your specific model of smartphone, so we aren't fussing with some system like DJI uses to grip the smartphone.
When they come out with the next version of the D5, they need to put AC wifi in there and have native wireless tethering to Lightroom. If they continue with the momentum they have with the D850, they'll be in a good state
Why not have a camera connect to wifi access point and be able to upload pics to a site, eliminating the need for a computer or smart phone?
Completely changing user interface has been tried. Microsoft knows something about it: windows7
> windows8 -> windows 8.1. It is IMO a bad idea. Give it as a choicefine. Force it – you'll lose current customers with no guarantee others would come.
Nikon should make something like the Alpha-Series from Sony but with F-Mount compatibility. This would be really good for them, as many F-Mount Lenses are on the Market. They would have a competitor to Sony but with a lot more Lenses available, then Sonys E-Mount.
Very good analysis Tony. I feel that there's too much conservatism within Nikon, old dinosaurs making the larger business decisions a la Japanese way. They need to get some new creative blood into their company. If you don't created a creative sandbox space for the young talents, they will leave your company. I shot Nikon for several years but beeing in the IT sector myself I saw more and more old/wrong decisions and jumped ship in 2012 going mirrorless.
I hope they do file bankruptcy so more customers do not get screwed like I did. Hate this company to a tune of a 5000 dollar loss. No honor with this company.
All of these suggestions would be SLAM DUNKS to keep Nikon going. Sadly, I don't have much faith they are or will listen and every year my DSLR is fearing more heavy and less necessary
Me personally, I'm not going to further invest into Nikon. I'm not that excited about the d850 at this point, a EVF would have pushed me over the edge to keep upgrading.
Tony, At the time I write this you have over a quarter million views on this video – I wonder if Nikon cared enough to respond to you?
I think Nikon should come up with a wider variety of lenses.
Protectionism policy and artificial handicapping their own product will make sure that declining trend go on for a loooong time
Get an android snapbridge works great.!!
Point and shoots are history, they need to cut it and focus on upper end APS-C and full frame cameras.
Agreed – except for the Aps-C pens…. That was crazy….
Nikon should relaunch and develop its DL series! It's Canon Gseries killer!
Solve all Nikon's problems by buying a sony lol
I think you hit on a key problem with Nikon at 26:00… they just do not listen to their customers.
snapbridge work great on my android phone…and my Lenovo tablet…
I see a lot of Mirrorless comments. Canon and Nikon aren't losing share to mirrorless. If you look at the sales charts, the DSLR's are going down but its not the mirrorless cameras that are eating them. Sales of Mirrorless Cameras are flat for the last few years. It is the smartphone cameras that are eating seriously into the point and shoot and aps-c markets.
I forgot to mention the partnership between Leica and Huawei. I'm typing this comment on a P10 with the co engineered phone camera. Nikon could partner with another phone manufacturer and license their expertise in lens technology.
Tony, your thoughts on hiring practices is interesting, but I think it goes beyond that, they should look at opportunities to partner with other brands. For example, they could partner with Tesla on engineering and manufacturing imaging components for its self driving technology. It could do something like what Leica did when they partnered with the Italian luxury designer Moncler.
I wonder how robust their knowledge transfer programs are? If a lot of that retirement attrition was senior engineers and scientists then that organization is looking at a brain drain. However, it seems to me there is an undercurrent here of Nikon trying to become more agile and innovative in other areas of imaging. Large organizations often use attrition programs more to try and change the organizational culture than necessarily to just reduce wages and related. However, they will need to ensure their knowledge transfer programs have been implemented in the last 5-10 years to reduce the shock of brain drain.
Months after it first came out I watched this video again. At the end Tony suggests Nikon scrap the D3000 series and beginners should buy the D5600 instead. That camera, in England, is over £650 with the 18 55 kit lens, over £200 more than the D3400. Not dollars but Pounds Sterling. No one is going to buy Nikon as a first camera, they will all buy the cheaper Canon.
I'm sure you know Tony that the problem with big Japanese companies like Nikon is their management structure. All the guys you might have meetings with, have no power. They all have to report back to middle aged men who then have to report to a few older men and all the decisions will be made by them. You're absolutely right by saying they need young creative software people and give them autonomy. This though goes against everything Japanese companies believe in.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrreat review, Tony! And I agree with EVERYTHING you said Nikon needs to do in the upcoming future. My only other gripe is that I wish they'd make their lcd screens a "totally detachable and FULLY FUNCTIONING Field Monitor"… IT'S JUST PLAIN OLD COMMON SENSE! This is extra money Nikon could be pocketing themselves, instead of making us spend hundreds on Android gear, and then another $10 on a camera app just to access camera functions our on-screen display already show us… JUST MAKE THE F**KING SCREEN DETACHABLE ALREADY, and charge an extra $110 for the Nikon cameras that have this feature! Maybe I'm crazy for thinking this way, but this makes total sense to me and don't understand why no camera manufacture has thought of this already, but it would be great if Nikon was the first to implement it.
Tony great idea image averaging on the point and shoot cameras.
vr editing photo outside lightroom.
Tony historgrams yes you nail it. I always try to move the the right.
4k camera point and shoot. Sensor that has 6 sades of black and rbg. billion of colours. in body better then lightroom correting photos. 10 times opticial. and the 40 times opticiall. this will really kick ass and all for $300 to $500
Sending pictures to smartphone, how useful is that? Why not directly to your computer, or put in possibility to send pictures to the web immeadiately?
Agree with stealing people from places like Apple .
why suggest only micro four thirds cameras for video? MFT is a tiny sensor so it sucks. use APSC or full frame cameras for video.
I own a Nikon D750 and recently contacted the Nikon support, because I am trying to download my raw files to my iPad to view and edit them in Lightroom mobile.
The D750 is only supported by the WMU app. That app can only download one raw file at once. If you download more than one file they are automatically converted to jpg…
Furthermore you have to select every picture manually. There is no way to select a range of pictures. So I contacted the support, because I thought that I missed something… But sadly that's the way things are right now. And they couldn't even tell me whether they have plans for an update. I personally highly doubt that.
So at the moment I am looking for a third party app to download the pictures from my camera, but it looks like I have to get an SD card adapter for my iPad and ignore the built in wifi, because it's useless. -.-
i just bought nikon camera and i see this video now…. scary
I think making there cameras look allot more retro and allowing creative minds to help ante up the fun to there hardware by adding apps, and adding eye auto focus to there viewfinders could be a game changer. Overall Tony, I think your a very clever and thoughtful for taking the time to make such a detailed review on how to help a struggling company.
Is SONY A9 full frame on 4K video?
The camera manufacturers are in direct competition with the cell phone industry. I personally have an ASUS Zenfone 3 with a 5.5 "HD touchscreen, an outstanding camera and also 64GB of internal memory. I paid $ 879 + tx (CAN) for a D5500 body only, I have no lens, no HD screen and most importantly, no internal memory, I still have to pay for a memory card. Now, to be able to use my D5500 I have to pay for lenses. I paid $ 492.43 taxes included for my Zenfone 3 and I can do anything, even communicate, bluetooth, wifi, nfc, instagram, facebook and so on. Conclusion, cameras manufacturers are going to have to give a lot more for a lot cheaper. My mobile camera is a 4.2mm, f/1.7 (imagine 1.7, canon would ask at least 3000$ for a lens like that), it goes down to ISO 40 and have a shutter speed up to 1/15000s… whoa, there is a challenge!!!
Brilliant summary
Such an amazing work and video!
I am with Nikon and this video really helped me to see the situation! I am really hopeful for Nikon because as you said they are really trying to shift!
Tony, thanks for sharing this. Fantastic video for my awareness! I know you will have many comments to read but my comments below based on my recent experiences:
I feel Nikon should more look into integrating their DSLR model cameras to social apps like – instagram or may be a facility to upload the photos to cloud like – amazon drive / iCloud/Google Drive.
These days, the amount of photos people are taking, its hard to store on a PC or MacBook with HDD of 512 GB. Most people these days are looking at storing their photos in Cloud directly. Because relying on hardware is getting little these days for various reasons – damage to hardware, theft etc.
I have been using Nikon D90 since 7 years and since i broke it recently, I'm thinking of switching to Nikon D750 and I was delighted when I heard that there is WiFi feature in Nikon D750 but not sure how efficiently its gonna work.
Good Video. Sad Story. Good luck Nikon.
Tony I want you to be part of the nikon design team!!!
well apparently Tony is not just a photographer, He's also an economic analyst expert, maybe he should start working for fox news business
they all should use the same type of mounts

XPOSUREKIDS RADIO FEATURED -- please listen to program
The students split into 4 groups and selected the following topics: Breaking Oil dependence, Wall Street Meltdown, Entertainment, Sports.
They researched each topic using the Internet and were tasked with writing the copy, and uploading it to the Smart Board teleprompter which they controlled. Each group was then given a max of 2 minutes radio time for their show
There are still a few openings for students interested in this very special after school program -- a program that I think will be replicated in many other school districts in the coming years.
The Lanza Family Foundation has increased the grant of $167,550 by an additional $17,000+, reducing the town's after school contribution to about $150,000. In years past the town has spent as much as $190,000 on after school programs --so this year we are reducing our contribution and getting a substantially better program.

Feiner is playing fast and loose with the numbers when he says in past years the town has spent as much as $190,000 on its after school program.
First of all, there is no line item in the town budget for "after school" program. So, there is really no way to know for sure how much the town has ever spent.
From 2006 through 2008, however, there is a line item for "part time education programs" in the amount of $190,000. However, when residents questioned how much of the town's budget was devoted to the town's after school program, they were told that $150,000 of the $190,000 was for that program, and the balance was for other "educational programs."
The truth is no one outside of the community center really knows how its nearly $4 million annual budget is spent. For example, if the number is $150,000 for the after school program, how many teachers is that? How are they paid? By the hour? Or by stipend? How long do they work? None of this information is set forth in the town budget -- but it should be.
But one thing's for sure, there's no basis for Feiner to say the town spent as much as $190,000 on the after school program unless he's prepared to say when and how that sum was spent.
When the town abuses taxpayers by spending millions of dollars on a program without demanding any accountability to the public, as it does with the community center, it's hard to take Feiner seriously when he tell us how much money he pretends he's saving us.
And the Xposure program isn't saving the town a dime. It is instead costing us plenty in unacountable tax dollars. This radio program Feiner touts is pure PR intended to distract the public from the real problem taxpayers have on their hands here.

Xposure is open to everyone in unincorporated Greenburgh. Our children are our most precious assets. After school programs are important, not only for our children but for parents. These programs provide parents with the ability to continue to work while our children are being educated.
- TOTAL BS said...
Oh please. "our children are our most precious assets"
Yes, but only if your child attends Greenburgh Central.
How come no one has mention the money GC spends on the after school and daycare programs at Lois Bronz, Ann & Andy & Creative Beginnings? Why has no one mention the money GC spends on the Early Childhood Program?
Free busing to these facilities, free food, free daycare.
Stop the nonsense. These "precious assets" have enormous advantages available to them that you would be hard pressed to find in any other school district or town. The biggest problem is that not all children and families are encouraged to participate so the very same, very small population reaps the benefits.
Look at Yonkers. They were cutting thier athletic programs until donations kept it afloat. Does anyone in their right mind think for one second that these programs, paid for by the citizens, are available anywhere else? Yonkers? Bronx? Scarsdale? Edgemont? Rye? Hell no!
How is it that 1/3 of the school aged children living in GC get these over the top advantages?
Wasteful and disgraceful. Now we have another duplicated program, Xposure, to add to this list.
When will anyone care about the other 2/3 of the children living in GC that get NOTHING? When will anyone care about the families going broke paying for the other 1/3 privladged few.
Stop using emotional blackmail by using terms "the good of our children" " our precious assets"
Manipulative BS. Your precious babies have plenty while my precious babies get nothing.
They only thing my kids had was the DARE program, cut by Paul, replaced by Xpousure. AND it was taught during school hours, tuition paid for by me. Not you, me!
I can't believe the level of dishonesty, waste and manipulative menusha that goes one in this town.
Every, single, citizen should be disturbed.

We still have to pay $150,000.00
for something that only satisfies the so called underpriveledge children of Fairview.
Are we paying for all their equipment also.
Paul you know that this is bull.
So the Lanza foundation gave up some more money which will not help the tax payers one bit.
The hole that you are digging for youself is getting deeper.
Maybe in the next election you could run for mayor Of Fairview since you are so happy with what you are accomplishing in the area.
Don't think for one minute that the rest of the unincorporated area will be voting for you.They have had it.
The more you speak of this program the worse it's getting because of the lies.
The school programs are great .By the way the funds for these programs are already paid for by the taxpayers.
Paul ,stop the BS you are loosing big time.
You have spent our hard earned money with no explanation to benefit Fairview.
Have you totally forgotten that there are other parts of town. Why do you come arround trying to show the residents that you are interested in what they say when you know that your lying.
My suggestion to you is just to set up camp at the A&P in Fairview where you are accepted with open arms.
You have proved one big point to all the taxpayers that there should be term limits .
Yes you have spoiled it for someone who may be benificial to greenburgh by being such a smuck.

You have done enough damage for a few years to come.

The more you expose these children with the thought that they are poor you will have them on welfare for the rest of their lives
You have given into the people that they must receive benefits from all angles.
We pay for our children to have activities outside the school system. Because of you they don't.
We pay for babysitting because of you it is for free.
We pay rent because of you they live by section eight.
Have you ever had an investigation of these participants who receive freebees including meals. NO.
These are all things that we have but we pay for.
You gave them so much that the Greenburgh ship is sinking real bad and there is no one to put it affloat unless someone with a good mind and managerial skills can figure out how to bring the ship back up.

This will be Paul's undoing for sure. He will be treated as he has treated us with disdain, disrespect, disloyalty, and selfishness.

Make no mistake people!
Paul is taking food out of the mouths of children to give it to those who are well fed.
The GC school district has robbed the people of thier money and denied a proper education to thousands of children living in the school district.
Do not stand for either one any longer!
Demand that Unincorporated Greenburgh take care of ALL of its children and families!
- Anonymous said...
Is the $17,000 also a matching grant?
The word is that the Town must also add $17,000.
What is the extra money for?
- Anonymous said...
Agree with 10:09. Listen to the news. The fed was very cautious about not sending out a signal to financial institutions that it's ok to steal money from the people for themselves. They wanted to remove the motivation for haphazard spending, gross profit taking. Many were opposed to the bailout just because of this.
Here in Fairview Greenburgh,we do not motivate people to aspire to anything more than learning how to work the system to get things for free. There are other blogs on the Internet were former Fairview residents often refer to Greenburgh as "Freeburgh" and laugh about it.
The GPD laughs about how no police enforcement is need at Fairview before 12 noon because most households don't get out of bed before then. No jobs. No motivation to get jobs. Yet we give special police detail to the GHA and they feel they shouldn't have to pay what they agreed to pay for. What do Fairview children learn from this?
The Fairview community does not give back to the Greenburgh community. It does not volunteer to make a difference in its community, it only lobbies for Greenburgh to give them more. It never thanks us either.
What are were really teaching the children of Fairview? We are teaching them nothing more then to have great expectations with no effort to achieve them. We teach them to work at looking for handouts and tell them that they should expect them because they deserve them.
Paul is a great supporter of "keeping the man down" yet behaves as a guilty party and throw more and more money at them to absolve his guilt.

Do you believe?
I ask again, do you believe?
Do you believe in Xposure?
If you believe, I want you to rise up out of your chair right now and I want you to take your hand and place it atop the radio,
I want you to hear and feel the goodness and the glory and I want you to heed the teachings of the little servants of our savior,
And I want you to sing and blog the praises of Mr. Thomas endlessly and I want you to volunteer your sons and daughters to join his most precious flock,
And I want you to make out your $300 checks to Mr. Thomas and know ye that he works in mysterious ways but that the teachings of the internet surely argue against the wisdom of contributing the millions and millions of dollars that were spent foolishly upon that false god made in the image of stone and glass as though it were some pagan idol, the Gordon Parks Library.
And I want you to speak no more of harsh words and false aspersions to all persons connected with Xposure,
And lastly I want you to join with me in prayer and ask that Mr. Thomas and his flock do what the world's leaders cannot do because they do not abide by the wisdom that from your children you'll be taught; harken ye unto the miracle that shall be revealed to true believers when Mr. Thomas speaks to all, coming to you through the radio and the wisdom of his 7th and 8th graders who -- on next week's radio show -- will solve the world financial crisis having passed the 30 minute Xposure course on the stock market.
Wall Street and markets abroad, rise up and be healed.

So many of you bloggers are so naive.Do you think yelling at Paul is going to make a difference?You have to understand that Paul is a POLITICIAN, not a "corporate executive" by any stretch of the imagination. All of your blabbering about Paul's financial mismanagement has nothing to do with Paul's forte or focus. He's a POLITICIAN, he buys votes with the budget. Fairview and GC vote and the rest of you don't.Get it?!!Instead of waisting your time whining and complaining on Paul's blog, get involved in the political process, find someone to run against Paul and work your tail off to get him out of office.Paul's game is to divide and conquer. All of you that feel disenfranchised, must unite and send him packing. If you don't understand that and do something about it (like I intend to), Paul (Fairview & GC) wins and you lose.

This is mindboggling.
First, Ms Whitehead and the no-show jobs, etc.
Second, the Xposure program -- which is clear why Paul tells us to listen to their program, because there sure isnt much to read about it.
We should have given the homework program more time. Want to bet the after school program for the Edgemont kids has allotted time. Like they would even want their kids in this program. No certified teachers, no background.
- Anonymous said...
You guys don't know what you're talking about! Xposure is getting rave reviews from parents, educators. OTher school districts are asking educators to monitor the program. Children love getting educated.
- xposure is a fraud said...
What evidence is there that Xposure is getting "rave reviews" from anyone?
The town entered into the contract with Xposure without obtaining a resume from Ray Thomas, its director. Mr. Thomas, who apparently is not a college graduate, does not have a written curriculum, and is not apparently certified by anyone to work with children, is now responsible for hiring "teachers" to work with the town's underprivileged children, for which the town will pay Thomas $150,000 and for which the town will pay the "teachers" another $150,000.
What idiots in town government thinks that this is responsible decision-making? If ever there was a case for a town NOT being in the business of educating children, this is it.
If there are any Greenburgh Central administrators or teachers who are "raving" about the program, and I doubt that there are, it is only because the cost is being charged not to Greenburgh Central, but to all of unincorporated Greenburgh -- without our consent.
I can't imagine any parents whose kids are in the program who are "raving." They have to shell out $300 per kid for a program that previously was for free. And where does that $300 go, exactly? The town hasn't said.
And don't let anybody suggest that there are "other school districts" who are monitoring the program for their own kids. There are no school districts in unincorporated Greenburgh other than Greenburgh Central who have any interest whatsoever in this program. They recognize a scam when they see one.
And they would never be so irresponsible as to place the care of children in the hands of someone who is not certified, never went to college, and won't even produce a resume so that his background can be confirmed.
At a recent town board meeting, Sonya Brown said that of course the town received a resume from Mr. Thomas. FOIL requests for that resume have demonstrated that no such resume exists.
Ms. Brown and Mr. Feiner will have a lot of explaining to do when the true facts concerning Xposure come to light. In the meantime, residents would be well advised to demand that the program be canceled. Immediately.

If the children are getting a better education with this program then close central seven schools.
Sorry teachers you don't know how to teach the children in your district.
Paul decided this program was better for the children than your work in the classrooms or after school help.

Mr.9:41: Xposure's Ray Thomas is not receiving $150,000. His salary is reported to be in the $30 grand range. My recollection was that he subjected himself to significant background checks conducted by the police and he passed with flying colors.
Xposure is a successful story. despite your insults.
- Anonymous said...
The fact is we dont know what Mr. Thomas will be paid. The prior year IRS filings of Xposure seem to indicate in the 30K range, but that was before the Lanza grant and the Town contract. Face it, with outside orgs, we have no control over salaries -- whilst at the same time we are putting our employees under strict controls.

The town is NOT IN THE EDUCATIN BUSINESS.
Greenburgh Central has the highest per student spending in the entire COUNTRY. We are paying this in taxes. Why should we pay more to supplement any educational program? EVER?
I listened to their "radio" show. Only one child appears to be able to READ properly. Why? There are many to blame for this.
Why should we throw good money after bad on the same group of kids? IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MUCH IS SPENT!
Paul, you have stepped out of line with this one. Way out of line and this little pet project of your will bite you in the a$$.
You are being SPITEFUL and insulting to all Greenburgers.
- lies, cheats, steals said...
How many kids are enrolled? I ask this because after listening to the radio clips it appears that the same 3 or 4 kids are the only ones participating.
How many of their families paid the $300. enrollment fee? How many of those who didn't pay have kids getting paid by us, every week, to attend? Xposure was replaced by the after school program? How many are now attending the GC after school programs at Ann & Andy, Creative Beginning and L. Bronze?
People! Don't be fooled. Nothing was "replaced". Programs were added and yes, you are paying for them.
How can we teach our children anything when town leaders deceive, lie and play the shell game at every turn?
Xposure belongs in the school district. Period!
I suspect the town board was in cahoots with the SD on this one. to DECIEVE the public.
Way to go!
- xposure rips off g'burgh taxpayers said...
Feiner is being disingenuous when he anonymously blogs that Thomas will only be paid $30 "grand" something -- not the $150,000 that another anonymous blogger reported.
Under the contract with Xposure that Feiner signed, the town will indeed be paying Thomas $30 "grand" something, but Thomas is then permitted to ask the town to cut checks to "Xposure" for the balance of the $150,0000. Since Thomas is Xposure (the company does not identify any other employees other than Thomas), the $150,000 balance would almost certainly go to Thomas himself.
And what's worse, Thomas doesn't have to do anything to earn that $150,000 other than to say he's "running" the program. What the program does, how many kids it enrolls, how successful it is, etc., it doesn't matter. Thomas gets his money all the same.
The biggest ripoff in the contract is the statement that the "vouchers" that Thomas submits have to be approved by the town comptroller, Kolesar. But there's no basis by which Kolesar can turn down a request for payment, so having Kolesar sign off on the checks means nothing. If you put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig.

Sonya Brown tried to get a summer school project passed and paid for by the town, a few years ago. It was denied by the town board, so she ran for office and won. Now the town is in the education business to suppliment the school district. Makes no sense
- very fishy indeed said...
There are still a few openings for students interested in this very special after school program -- a program that I think will be replicated in many other school districts in the coming years.
How is this even legal? Why are we spending money to educate? There is a clear precedent set by the current use of Xposure in school districts. It is marketed at school districts.
- town's school program illegal said...
The Town's operation of the Xposure after school program is NOT LEGAL. In its audit of the WestHELP fiasco, the state comptroller stated that, "The general function of providing education to children is a school district, not a town purpose." To get around the state laws against using town taxpayer dollars to aid an individual school district within a town, the Town pretends that the program is open to all children in unincorporated Greenburgh.
In fact, the program is, for all intents and purposes, open only to children in the Greenburgh Central school district. This is demonstrated by the fact that the Town provides bus service for those children from the schools in that district to the community center, and for no other children. This is also shown by the fact that only children from the Greenburgh Central school district are enrolled in the program.
Even if it were legal for Greenburgh to operate the program for all children in "unincorporated Greenburgh," and it is not, the Town is also violating the laws requiring that such programs be open town-wide and paid for town-wide.
Residents are encouraged to register their complaints about this unlawful town practice with the State Comptroller and the State Attorney General. Demand that these state agencies take action to stop Greenburgh and its politicians from violating state law.

Oh please, you people, get a life. The Feiner machine will never be defeated. This is ward boss politics at its essence. Feiner's playbook is straight out of Plunkett of Tammany Hall, which is an unbeatable formula on the very local level: constituent services and distributing patronage to people who actually vote. If Feiner opponents couldn't get their act together behind a qualified candidate like Greenawalt 3 years ago, or Lasser 5 years ago, they will never find anyone to bring him down. Seriously, how many more capable people are there who would be willing to give up their real jobs, get down and dirty campaigning against Pothole Paul, just to be Greenburgh town supervisor for $105,000 and have to attend all those insane meetings? Paul is very clever at finding wedge issues to divide his opposition. Just look at how he got Hal Samis's endorsement last time around. Sorry, but the dozen or so anti-Feiner posters on this blog won't cut it. Since Paul seems to have given up on higher ambition than being town supervisor, he will be here as long as he chooses. Get used to it.

PS There is no transportation to children living in Greenburgh Central that don't attend school there. k-8 estimated to be over 800 of them. No flyer's sent to the private elementary schools in Un-Greenburgh, in GC boundaries either.
And what is this craziness where kids are bussed from GC to private out of SD boundaries day care centers? Can anyone shed some light on this?

And to think how many mafiosos are in jail for doing the exact same think that is going on in Greenburgh.
Are there any honest people left who claim to protect the residents.
Hey guys you have hurt each one of us for the rest of our lives since you have taken away our way of life.
We are now answering to a dictatorship one who sees no further than his nose.
We have to take what he places before his board and then is passed down to us the public.
We have to pay whether we like it or not for this program that is not and will not benefit the children .It is another babysitting arrangement meant soley for the children at FAirview.
We in the other areas would never insult the teachers the way SOnya and Feiner have done.
We pay good money for our schools why must we pay to match a grant given for this program when we did not vote this in.
This guy is a farce but when he is exposed let's see how Feiner and Sonya handle it.
It looks like Sonya was elected to satisfy the black people at the north end of town well she has succeded inspending our money on this program.
Watch out this Sonya is not sitting in that seat to represent the whole town,
Her goal is to help steal our money to serves the Fairviewites.
See how she kept quiet on the subject of the no show jobs ,the supposed hiring of felons who receive good money .
Well she started on a bad foot but we have to put up with her until the next election comes arroung or maybe she will resign.
Is there any elected official that listens to all the people or are they working just to rip us off.

Greenburgh Central School District with just 1,800 students is the per pupil spending leader among independent school districts in the county, according to the state at $28,322 per pupil on a $51 Million budget. A distant second is Briarcliff Manor at $25, 914 per pupil (with 1,800 enrollment), $46.7 Million budget.
- Anonymous said...
No matter how much money Greenburgh Central spends per pupil, it still does not justify saddling unincorporated area taxpayers with the cost of Greenburgh Central's after school program. Town officials know they are violating the law, but don't think anyone will do anything about it. Write to the state comptroller and state attorney general and demand that they investigate and put a stop to Greenburgh's illegal taxing of unincorporated Greenburgh to pay for Greenburgh Central's after school program.
- Anonymous said...
Very true 12:34 but the GC spending is staggering and highly questionable given that enrollment is at best half of the overall K-12 population in the district.
People need to know what they are paying for at GC as well. More babysitting!
- Anonymous said...
GC spending is staggering largely because of the costs of busing nearly half the school age population to nearby private and parochial schools. GC taxpayers can remedy the situation by working to improve their schools, but so many have thrown up their hands in frustration, it's not hard to see why that hasn't worked. In the meantime, though, there's no reason in the world by taxpayers in unincorporated Greenburgh should subsidize the school district itself. That's not only an illegal use of town taxpayer funds, but if the town is there to provide supplemental funding, which it is, GC has one less reason to take their own steps to improve their schools.
- Um, no said...
1:06 I beg to differ.
The cost is staggering not because they bus to private schools, because their spending is out of control!
If you ask for the information you will find that the busing is incidental as they do not add buses for private schools only use buses in between runs to GC. While it's true that gas is costly and they "could" have drivers work less hours, there are approximately 11 million tax dollars per year going into GC by families that have their kids in private schools, that is being squander by the district.
If these families enrolled their children, GC would implode as it could never handle the influx of students without doubling school taxes district wide.
So,you are wrong. It is in fact true that because these kids don't attend GC, it allows for this staggering amount of money to be spent ineffectively & frivilously.
It galls me that GC would have you believe otherwise. Last check back in 2005 these "extra runs" were costing an extra 55k per year. There is no way in hades that the SD and those that attend ,have the better end of the bargain.
It's horrifying that this amount of money is wasted on, by all accounts, a poor education.
- un, no said...

a school district that buses 50% of its kids out of the district should be taken over by the state.

Whereas you have entered into an agreement to rent space at the Theodore D. Young Community Center, and as a good responsible taxpayer, conscientious of the financial burden placed on our valued town residents, this letter serves to remind you that you owe $20,000.00 in rental fees which was duly noted from last January. Simply put, we taxpayers don't know where you get the chutzpa from, to go to a town board meeting and play victim while shamelessly pandering to temporary commissioner, Valerie Whitehead. Add to the fact that you put down the efforts of the entire staff, who work hard every day to put out the best programs possible plus contrary to your comment, do indeed welcome everyone who enters through the center's doors.
Now let's figure this out:
A Valerie desperately needs money.
+ B You haven't paid your bill.
= C: More shady wrongdoings!
Can you smell kickback?
It's highly suspect when the department head praises the efforts of a space renter who is ten months behind in her rental fees. The temp lady should have initiated some efforts to collect money that was due to the town!

The Honeymoon Is Over
John Mayer's one true love is the paparazzi. If he could, he would have their babies. Woopsie. I shouldn't have said that. Now dozens of paps are going to receive scribbled death threats on tear-soaked paper from "you know who." Now that John and "you know who" have ended their magical romance, the paps have moved on. They just aren't that into him anymore.
A source told MSNBC's The Scoop that John has been tipping off the paps to his whereabouts but they can't be bothered. The source said, "He thinks he's famous as Jen now. Last week he went to a party, tipped off the paps, and even had decoy cars at the ready when he was leaving. Nice, but no one bothered to follow them, which made John think he 'lost' everyone, when really no one bothered to follow him."
One pap said it's all about money. An exclusive picture of Mayer and Aniston sold for around $20,000. A picture of Mayer by himself only gets $200 from a magazine.
Poor John. He's going to have to work hard to get their love back. He'll have to write a song for them, send them flowers and text them all day long with "I MISS U." In other news, Jennifer Aniston has just become a member of the paparazzi. "Maybe he'll love me back if I take his picture?!!!!"

On rainy dayz I sit back and count ways
On how to get rich son,
show and prove, ask my b***h
Stood up late nights, build with my a-likes
We can pull a heist, snatch ice, or rock mics
Ghostface on Raekwon's "Rainy Dayz" ( I think some of those lyrics may be a little off, but I don't have time to research)
It's another rainy day in GA. These days especially I don't feel like going to work. I need me a side hustle. This rainy day has me brainstorming. What could I do to get rich?
I can ghostwrite for wack rappers. I used to be a rapper, but I can't really do it anymore. The words don't flow like they used to. When I freestyle I find myself repeating myself and coming up with words that ALMOST rhyme. That would be perfect for some of these southern rappers. I can be overly simplistic and use buzzwords like sway, candy paint, and whatever liquor is popular in the clubs. I can reference other wack rap songs in my own wack rap song. I should get on this one.
I can be a critic. Doesn't matter what I'm criticizing: movies, music, restaurants, your face. If there's one thing I can do it's criticize. I have mad opinions about everything. I usually keep them to myself or the people close to me,b but if you paying, I'll make you feel bad for a fee.
I can be a writer for SNL. I'm pretty funny and I don't know how to end a sketch (or movie, or novel) either.
I can wait in lines for people. I'm a really good waiter. I'm patient and don't get easily frustrated. You know how people start getting antsy after a while? That doesn't really bother me. As long as I have an iPod, I'll hold your place in the line at the DMV, the polling place, concert. There has to be a market for that, right?
I can be a "prove-wronger." I love that ish. I get all cocky and belligerent! I'll make that other person feel really small as I prove them wrong. You having an argument with someone that doesn't use logic? You need someone to do your research, I will be relentless. And I don't just use the first website that agrees with me. I need legitimate sources. I'm not gonna cite Sandra Rose, or TMZ, or Fox News. I'll get credible sources. I don't stop til I prove you were wrong and I was right.. even if I wasn't.
I can be a food taster. I generally have a cast iron stomach. I can eat anything without getting sick. Bring on your crazy concoction and I'll let you know what's wrong with it or what's right about it. Just don't include any cantaloupe and we're good.
I can be a blogger. I'm saying, other bloggers got paypal links on their pages. Why can't I? Because blogging is free? That's no excuse. I want to exploit people into paying for free stuff too!!!

Breaking up is hard to do.
Before we left Melbourne, we had several friends who were in happy couple bliss, you know, living together, finishing each other's sentences, buying big things like apartments together and even planning babies together! 18 months later, some of those happy couples are even happier when they're not together and even happier still with a different partner!
The problem is that I wasn't there when these happy couples broke up. I didn't have time for it to sink in, for me to mourn the loss of the other partner (as you know, you can't take both sides – you have to CHOOSE one side!) and for me to come to terms with the whole break up thing.
When you're friends with both sides, how do you choose which side to keep? Sometimes the choice is made for you in some weird custody battle between the couple. "You can't have Peter, you already have Paul. You already have a name beginning with P. You can't have another one". Or maybe "I'm keeping Lisa the doctor. Your teeth are worse than mine; you can have Linda the dentist". So far, I've ended up with the side that I was friends with first.
A long-time uni friend of mine, let's call him Mike, was once part of one of these couples (ie. Mike and Mary). 1 week before his visit here last year, Mike announced that he would be accompanied by his new other half, Mindy.
This was a surprise given that I didn't know that his 'previous' (8 year) happy couple life had disintegrated into smithereens. It was even more difficult given that his now-ex-partner Mary, had given up her rights to all his friends, especially seeing as we got along really well. I really liked Mary, even saying "Mike and Mindy" wasn't quite the same as saying "Mike and Mary". After sharing numerous birthdays, drunken evenings and rowdy New Year's Eves, I didn't even have time to say goodbye! And now I had to start all over again with Mindy.
The reason why I'm rambling on about this is that another half-a-happy-couple-and-new-other-half is visiting us this weekend. This friend of ours has a new girlfriend. So out will come the awkward-at-first-getting-to-know-you small talk followed by silent comparisons on how the ex-partner preferred a beer to a glass of champagne or how the ex-partner laughed louder at bad jokes.
Forgive me for sounding bitter but I'm still getting over Mary.

In the British newspaper, The Observer, February 22, 2004, the following headline appeared: "Now the Pentagon tells Bush: climate change will destroy us." In the story filed in New York by reporters Townsend and Harris, they report that, "Climate change over the next 20 years could result in a global catastrophe costing millions of lives in wars and natural disasters."
They report that, "The document predicts that abrupt climate change could bring the planet to the edge of anarchy as countries develop a nuclear threat to defend and secure swindling food, water and energy supplies." According to the Pentagon analysis, "Disruption and conflict will be endemic features of life. Once again, warfare would define human life."
This report published by foreign media was treated quite differently by US media February 25, 2004. "Pentagon downplays report on climate change that it commissioned" is the headline that appeared Tuesday, February 24, 2004. "According to Britain's The Observer, US military officials censored an alarming report because the issue of global warming could wind up thrust into the US presidential campaign ahead of the November vote."
Why should that report bother the citizens of the US that prides themselves on free speech? Why shouldn't the issue get free and open debate? Why would we want to have an issue that might be extremely important to all of us on the planet, censored?
