- The Church's survival in parts of Africa and the Middle East are threatened by religiously motivated ethnic cleansing by extremist Islamist groups.
- The Church is being driven out of its ancient biblical heartland thanks to a massive exodus – Christianity is on course to disappear from Iraq potentially within five years.
- Totalitarian regimes such as those in China and North Korea have put Christians under pressure due to the perception that Christianity is linked to the West, seen as corrupt and exploitative by communist states.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has said the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq was partly responsible for the emergence of the Islamic State militant group in the Middle East as "there are elements of truth" in the assertion that the war caused the rise of IS. . He added that the Arab Spring had also played a role in creating instability that allowed the Islamic fundamentalist militant group to flourish.
"I know what happens when good people stand by idly and silently while another group is being oppressed simply because of their religious identity, and to me personally that animates part of my response to protect Christians, protect minorities all across the globe, to protect any people who are being oppressed." -David Saperstein, U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom
Everywhere that U.S. leadership helped Islamic jihadis topple secular autocrats in the name of "democracy and freedom," indigenous Christian minorities are forced either to convert to Islam or die. The same is happening in the two other Arab nations where the U.S., under the pretext of "freedom and democracy," overthrew the secular dictators who had long kept a lid on the jihadis: Libya and Iraq. The ongoing slaughter of Christians by the Islamic State, and the destruction of churches and antiquities, must be laid at the feet of those Western nations that, intentionally or unintentionally, paved the way for the Islamic State.
The 'Arab Spring' – which was initially celebrated falsely by Western leaders across the globe – has unleashed a wave of persecution against Christians across North Africa and the Middle East.
Britain and America's controversial invasion of Iraq in 2003 unleashed a catastrophic wave of Islamist extremism which has seen minority groups persecuted and destroyed. The terrorist groups have been helped in their ideological drive to wipe Christianity off the map by the corrupt Western-backed government in Baghdad. Iraq's Christian population was decimated – plunging from a high of more than 2 million in 2003 to just 180,000 today.
The world must act NOW: Plea to save Christians in Iraq, Syria from ISIS barbarians
"Time is running out for Christians in the region. It is 100 years since Armenian and Assyrian Christians faced genocide and since then they and other Christians have experienced increasing persecution in the region.
Now scores of Christians have already been murdered by Islamic State and thousands forced to leave ancient Christian communities in northeastern Syria and western Iraq as the extremists demand they either convert to Islam, pay an extortionate rate of tax or face execution. More than 700,000 of Syria's population of 1.1 million Christians have already been forced to leave as IS militants expanded into the northwest of the country and it is believed there are now no more than 250,000 Christians living in Syria
"Europe is in danger of becoming infested with a lot of extremism.
"The torture, murder and persecution being carried out by ISIL in Syria and Iraq is truly shocking.
"I would pray and hope that the western world in general would be more militant and aggressive in the fight against jihadism. More pressure should be put on President Obama, the leader of the free world, to not just stamp his feet in the oval office but to put the boots on the ground.
Jihadi hate groups including Islamic State (ISIS) and al-Qaeda have filled the power vacuum left behind by the US-led invasion and have set about persecuting and slaughtering Christians. It is genocide, what's happening to Christians there. They've lost identity, tradition, historical places, language and they kill them too.. At least 1,800 Christians have been brutally murdered by Islamist fanatics in Iraq since 2003, whilst 100,000 were forced to flee Mosul in one night when ISIS captured the city. The Archbishop of Aleppo, in Syria, recently warned that Christianity could be wiped out in the region in just five years if Islamist fanatics including ISIS are allowed to carry on their campaign of persecution unchecked.
Britain could do more to take in Christian refugees from the area after Church of England bishops urged the Government to accept 30,000 extra people.
Severe dangers Christians for living in Syria faced., fewer than 100,000 now remain, down from a total of 160,000.
CHRISTIANS in Syria overwhelmingly SUPPORT Vladimir Putin's aerial bombing campaign of ISIS and rebel strongholds, "Things have begun to change since the Russians are bombing ISIS." The bishops, priests and faithful — in Syria now feel they have hope that the problems will be sorted and the war will finish since Russia intervened and struck Daesh [ISIS] seriously, Melkite Greek Catholic Archbishop Jean-Clement Jeanbart of Aleppo called the persecution "one of the most important challenges of our 2,000 year history."
"It is terrible for us to see all the marvellous things we had destroyed for pretend democracy and freedom. Our country was fighting for 50-60 years to become a secularist regime, a pluralistic country, to give citizens their rights of religion and freedom of choice … and you are destroying this work and pushing on us fundamental jihadis who want to kill everyone who is not similar to them."
Britain too must help and help save the Christians fleeing Syria and from the barbarians of the Islamic State.
Jean-Clement Jeanbart, a Catholic Archbishop in Aleppo, said a 15,000-strong Jewish population had been whittled down to just TWO or THREE families living in the cities, which is facing its strongest assault yet from ISIS, government troops and rebel fighters.
Britain faces biggest Islamic terrorist threat in decades as MI5 stop six attacks in a year
Slovakia bans Muslim migrants because country has no mosques (but they'll take Christians) Poland does as well. We could take 800 Muslims but we don't have any mosques in Slovakia so how can Muslims be integrated if they are not going to like it here?"
As part of his manifesto for the upcoming Russian presidential elections, candidate Vladimir Putin has promised to add the protection of Christian communities across the globe to the duties of his foreign office.
The head of External Church Relations, Metropolitan Illarion, said that every five minutes one Christian was dying for his or her faith in some part of the world, specifying that he was talking about such countries as Iraq, Pakistan and India. The cleric asked Putin to make the protection of Christians one of the foreign policy priorities in the future.
The Roman Catholic church has yet to use its power to such ends however. Despite the massacre of Christians across the globe, the Pope is currently writing an encyclical on global warming.
And what is the US really doing?
Western government-and-'news'-media lying is not only about Ukraine but now includes Syria . They have contempt for the public . Western leaders do have big laugh about how stupid their audience is, to go for their lies. US Republican Senator Rand Paul called his own party's bluff in a summer 2014 interview with CNN, telling the incompetent host that "we [the US government] are allied with ISIS in Syria. "
"[ISIS] would not be empowered in Iraq if we hadn't been providing them a safe haven in Syria by arming their allies," the Senator said, adding that "we are where we are because we armed the Syrian rebels," the preponderance of whom are Wahhabi-Salafist extremists.
Rand Paul recently doubled down on that line of reasoning, informing another interviewer in May 2015 that "hawks in my party" are responsible for the rise of ISIS because of their purposefully intransigent policy of "distributing arms randomly, Russia and Lebanon's Hezbollah movement are supporting the Alawite-led Assad government, while Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar back the rebels.
The West, NATO, EU with their Bashing Russia approach, , with a Washington-led anti-Russian propaganda and mis information attacks all are a very useless American approach and has not lead to any Middle East peace… NOR OF ANY real HELP TO THE RELATED SYRIAN REFUGEES. How speedily RATHER the lies of the "WEST" in general, those of the US and UK in particular about Russia and the Syrian situation are unraveling. The current US policy to hector, harass, threaten, demean, demonize, ridicule, and bully Russia, . another attack on the ruble, or fiddle with oil prices or impose more economic sanctions now has pushed its allies like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE and Kuwait to sign military agreements with Moscow, which showcases an unprecedented downgrade in the relations with Washington. Moscow 's expansion, its position, its relations is growing at the expense of the United States. The US It has also rejected all calls urging it to take part in the conflicts in Syria, Libya and Yemen, as well as in Sub-Saharan Africa after the kidnapping of the Nigerian schoolgirls by Boko Haram. The US took all its time and was really late in participating in the Iraqi war against Daesh, IS. "It's always hard to play a double game – to declare a fight against terrorists but at the same time try to use some of them to move the pieces on the Middle Eastern chessboard in your own favour. There's no need to play with words and split terrorists into moderate and not moderate. I would like to know what the difference is."
Obama Uses U.S. Embassies to Promote LGBT Agenda The White House is spending millions and using U.S. embassies to promote the LGBT agenda worldwide.The U.S. Department of State has spent $12 million in over 50 countries supporting gay rights advocates, the Associated Press reported. The U.S. Ambassador to Israel "proudly" supported the celebration of gay pride in Tel Aviv by hoisting the gay pride flag in an historic first. The Obama Administration sent five openly gay ambassadors oversees last year, with a sixth nominee awaiting Senate confirmation.
Now Obama Abandons Scheme to Train US sponsored Nonexistent Syrian "Moderates" Fact: None exist. Anti-Assad forces are virtually all imported death squads from scores of other countries – US armed, funded, trained and directed, including ISIS, Al Qaeda, and Jabhat Al Nursa elements among others, used as proxy foot soldiers to terrorize Syrians, part of Washington's scheme to replace Assad with a pro-Western puppet. Still "If it looks like a terrorist, if it acts like a terrorist, if it walks like a terrorist, if it fights like a terrorist, it's a terrorist, right?" The recent fall of Kunduz to the Taliban has thoroughly exposed the viability of Washington's puppet regime in Iran too. as well as in Syria,.
An uk poll last week revealed that the Russian crusade in Syria has the support of more than two in every three Britons.
RUSSIA'S power play in Syria appears to be paying off with the superpower making inroads against Islamic State and other extremist groups, leaving its American rivals looking ineffective and highlighting US failures in the region. With Russian air support, Syrians have been able to hit back against Islamic State in central and north-western regions
With his military moves in Syria, Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a shrewd chess move, of establishing Russia as the power broker in the Syrian civil war and the region generally," If Moscow had only wanted to hit Bashar al-Assad's enemies in Syria, it has plenty of ships nearby in the Mediterranean to do the job. Rather, the Russians launched the 26 cruise missiles, which are self-propelled weapons that can fly great distances at supersonic speed and below radar detection, from the Caspian simply to show they were capable of doing so. The decentralizing of offensive capability is the largest shift of military priorities since the waning days of the Cold War. Vladimir Putin said Russian warships could even start bombarding ISIS positions from the Mediterranean as he hailed the "impressive" results of his country's aerial campaign. The U.S. and its allies should be warned: Vladimir Putin notched another success. This ability to threaten the U.S. from a host of locations makes a good counterstrategy to the Russian Navy's emphasis on denying hostile powers access to vital areas and ensuring free passage in air and sea trade routes. President Barack Obama and iis cronies can insist all they wants that Putin's intervention in Syria is a sign of weakness, but the cruise missile launch still showed Russia's present, rising strength, "We will not only continue strikes. We will also increase their intensity. " Even most Americans believe Putin has the upper hand on Obama in Syria. Russia's stunning intervention had "complicated" the situation for the US-led coalition in Syria, which has been waging a largely ineffective aerial bombing campaign against ISIS. Russian airstrikes have succeeded in obliterating jihadis where the West has failed. "Dozens of control facilities and ammunition depots, hundreds of terrorists and a large number of weapons have been destroyed." It may be that Russian president Mr Putin is planning to send a 150,000-strong force into Syria to wipe out ISIS' de facto capital Raqqa. An elite Russian special forces unit – the Spetsnaz – have already been sent into the war-torn country to hunt down packs of fleeing jihadis. They are there to mop up after air strikes, call in air strikes, go on extremely covert missions against rebels and ultimately wipe them out. EU and West's response to the threat of Islamist extremism has been "frankly inadequate" compared to that of Russia.
Syria's autonomous Kurdish region is preparing to set up a diplomatic mission in Moscow amid signs of growing ties between Russia and the Kurds, who are Washington's most effective battlefield allies. The warming relations between the Kurds and the Kremlin will cause disquiet in Turkey and the US.
The ghastly Arab Spring were all on the bad side of history, as nothing could be worse than these established next new Muslim dictators and for many people they are worse than some of these previous dictators..
Unlike the US Putin doesn't distinguish between the "moderate" terrorists and the "radical" terrorists, the good terrorists and the bad terrorists. It's a joke. They're all in the same pool and they're all going to meet the same fate. They all have to be rooted out, apprehended or killed. End of story.
'As many as 40 different insurgent groups — the majority of them being supported by the outside world — have pressed upon the regional governments to forge an alliance against Russia and Iran in Syria all while the Saudi clerics have made a call for jihad against Syria's government and its Iranian and Russian backers. In the recent past, the US and its allies were not only able to get low-priced oil from the conflict-ridden Middle East but were also able to export arms worth billions of dollars to the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states. According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the US topped the list of largest arms' exporters for the year 2014 with 31 percent of the total global arms exports while the aggregate total for the US and its allies amounts to 53 percent of the total world's arms' exports. US arms' exports in 2010-2014 were raised by 23 percent. According to SIPRI, Saudi Arabia rose to become the second largest importer of major weapons worldwide from 2010 to 2014, increasing the volume of its arms' imports by four times compared to 2005 to 2009 while the arms' imports to GCC states increased by 71 percent in 2010 to 2014 as compared to what the export volume was in 2005 to 2009.'
Turkey's policy toward the Islamic State — that's the name ISIS/ISIL gave itself after proclaiming a caliphate on June 29, 2014 — was what might be called "live and let kill." Turkish authorities did little to impede the flow of jihadis, weapons and money moving across its border into Syria. With virtual impunity, agents of the Islamic State recruited Turkish citizens and, according to a leaked police report, set up "sleeper cells" throughout the country. Turks made lots of money trading oil and antiquities stolen by the Islamic State. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the most powerful political figure in Turkey, thought he could make an ally — or at least a strategic partner — of the Islamic State? with two overriding priorities: toppling Syrian President Bashar Assad — the client of Iran's Shia rulers who since 2011 has been slaughtering his country's Sunnis — and eliminating Kurdish forces in Syria lest they encourage Turkey's large Kurdish minority to consider self-rule a
American politicians routinely hurl invective against Iran, accusing the Islamic Republic of fomenting terrorism abroad and maintaining a tyranny at home. But Saudi Arabia has an even less democratic system than that in Tehran, and as the chief incubator of orthodox Salafism, has played a major role in the rise of fundamentalist terror groups around the Middle East and South Asia.
Muslims were not doing enough to fight against the Islamic State and their "diabolical ideology. Muslims around the world are not doing enough to win the ideological struggle at the heart of this battle.
The Russians have announced plans to increase the number of strikes against ISIS targets
Russian President Vladimir Putin has urged the necessity of uniting anti-terrorism efforts, But the West's definition of success contains no element of concern for the dismal situation of the Syrian people or Refugees . While Putin is just trying to hold together the Middle East state system in response to the chaos engendered by U.S. overreach in Iraq, Libya and beyond. The Russians also know their own objective very well: Secure their interests in the Middle East by any means necessary and it is working.
In fact, even the American people are having a hard time swallowing Obama. "President Obama frequently mentions the threat of ISIS. Well, who on earth armed them? the US// And who created the political climate that facilitated the current situation? The US… Who delivered arms to the area? The US.. The Obama administration has backed themselves into an ideological cul de sac from which there is no way out. Americans are not not going to initiate a confrontation with Russia to defend an another fundamentally immoral CIA program that has gone bad.
Also Turkey's four-year attempt to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad has failed.US plans for regime change through the use of jihadi-proxies has failed,..Turkey has violated Syrian and Iraqi borders on numerous occasions – from carrying out bombing raids against Kurdish camps to launching air strikes against Syria. All these actions were taken by Turkey without being granted permission from either country's government . Russia and Iran are still there now in Syria fighting the terrorists. Whether it's in Ukraine or Syria, the Russian president seems always to have the upper hand.
Iran's Foreign Ministry said it fully supports Russian airstrikes against "terrorist groups" in Syria. The "Islamic Republic of Iran considers military action by Russia against armed terrorist groups to be a step toward fighting terrorism and toward resolving the current crisis" in Syria,
The US false response with a report of Russian attacks In Syria are causing civilian casualties and Russians Missiles are not all effective is more crap.. Moscow has photographic evidence of each target struck, no civilian ones or near them. The US and UK of course are both bombing and supporting insurgents entirely illegally in Syria, having no UN mandate and no request from the country's governing body. UK Prime Minister David Cameron. On 24th September last year he addressed the United Nations, committing British aircraft to targeting IS/ISIL/ISIS in Iraq adding unequivocally that there would be no similar action in Syria . It would anyway have been another illegal action, since they had not been invited by the Syrian President or government and had no UN mandate. However, in July this year it transpired that pilots of Britain's Air Force have been "embedded" with US and Canadian Air Squadrons and been involved in flying: "intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and strike missions …" It appears the British government only ever acts with, or at US behest, whilst sidelining it's own Parliament. The western acts against Russia, Syria, from lies, to heartbreak, to cultural destruction has become a microcosm of the demented, ridiculous western "war on terror." The lies and subterfuge to justify the ISIL horror have become more desperate but only the most obtuse person can avoid noticing still that that real Islamic terrorists exist in Syria, Iraq.
The refusal of the US to share intel with Russia on ISIS positions in Syria. it "just confirms once more what we knew from the very start, that the US goals in Syria have little to do with creating the conditions for a political process and national reconciliation." US objectives in Syria do not consider eradicating ISIS terrorists as the highest priority as the US was , is only ever interested in regime change in Syria The US, therefore, finds itself in a strange position. While claiming for so long to be the world's leader in the infamous 'war on terror', certain figures within the US government are now openly hindering the fight on terrorists.
The last two years have been good ones for President Vladimir Putin. Russia has control of Crimea and has destabilized large portions of eastern Ukraine. Plunging oil prices may have wreaked havoc on Russia's finances, but so far Putin's domestic popularity seems unaffected.
Having suffered defeat in battle with its real enemy, Islamic Muslims, the US and Nato fastened on to the mythical threat of "Russian aggression". The Europeans are weak-willed and the Americans are strong. The US strives to dominate in the world If it was not for the influence of the US, they would not pursue Russia. .
Former Russian spy chief Nikolai Patrushev, now head of the powerful security council that advises the Rissian president, believes his country is under threat – from terrorists, from colour revolutions and, particularly, from America, NATO. The US are trying to prove that Russia is party to the conflict in Ukraine, but that is not the case. Moreover, the US themselves started the conflict in Ukraine. It was the US that set all these events in motion. Barack Obama admitted as much in one of his recent interviews.That was their mistake, politically. Had they waited, they could have installed their people by lawful means. [Instead], they initiated a coup d'etat. If there hadn't been a coup, nothing would have happened in Crimea and eastern Ukraine. Blaming Russia for how events unfolded in Ukraine is to confuse cause and effect, putting the cart before the horses. In Ukraine now, even within a single family, relatives take diametrically opposed positions and trade insults. It is a civil conflict.
Isis had already turned into the [world's] most powerful terrorist organisation. And the anti-terrorist coalitions forged by the US are essentially being used to intervene militarily in the affairs of sovereign states, Syria.It just so happens that if the terrorists are fighting against Assad, they can be considered legitimate, whereas if they harm American interests, as, for instance, in Iraq, they must be annihilated amd if Syria's Assad is removed from power, the whole of Syria will fall under the control of Isis. Who will oppose them then?
Most perversely though about the Obama regime, is not only have they not offered to support Russian military forces who are now risking their lives to protect the Syrian people from some of the most brutal and sadistic terrorists our world has ever seen, they have actually begun a propaganda war of lies stating that Aerospace Forces have been killing innocents and targeting al-Nusra militant forces—which, of course, the American press refuses to tell their citizens it is actually al Qaeda whom they blamed for their 11 September 2001 attacks.
What a disastrous failure the Western powers' foreign policies have proven to be. They have created massive unrest, deaths, political instability, the rise of Islamic fundamentalism, related religious turmoil, and mass emigration in the Middle East. Now that China, Russia and Iran are sorting out the Muslim problem in the middle east! What will the West that is overrun with Muslims do. There are no few in West capable of controlling the Muslims.
And to how the Obama regime had actually been conducting their "war" against ISIS/ISIL, this report says, appears to have been nonexistent as no evidence has yet been discovered that the Americas ever actually bombed them—which explains why Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi this week stated that his nation, too, would welcome Russian airstrikes against the Islamic State. With new documents proving that the Obama regime and its partners in the Gulf states, and Turkey, supported ISIS/ISILGulf States declaring that they will militarily intervene on behalf of ISIS/ISIL, and other terrorist groups, in Syria has greatly accelerated the likelihood of this conflict reaching international proportions.
Seems Russia is acting where the West has failed, and that it is now just a matter of time before ISIS simply is a horrible memory in history, at least in Syria. The Islamic religious turmoil in the Middle East has dropped to an all time low. The Islamic governments out there should be held responsible for the false Arab Spring uprisings, but they supported them and they are doing nothing to stop it, they are not helping the peoples of their own religion otherwise many of them wouldn't be fleeing as refugees and with the risk of fundamentalists hiding amongst them it should be a worry for every country.
As a pivotal turning point in this conflict has now drawn in all of the world's military powers, these MoD experts in this report explain, Russia and the US are now engaged in combat over the same country for the first time since World War II .
In Iraq, the head of parliament's defence and security committee said Baghdad may request Russian air strikes against Islamic State on its soil soon and wants Moscow to have a bigger role than Washington in fighting the group. Iraq's government and powerful Iranian-backed Shi'ite militias question the United States' resolve in fighting Islamic State militants, who control a third of the country, saying U.S.-led coalition air strikes are ineffective. "We might be forced to ask Russia to launch air strikes in Iraq soon … and that depends on their success in Syria," Hakim al-Zamili told Reuters.
Assad ran a reasonably stable nation. It was the radical Islamists that stoked the rebellion there. Had Obama not supported the rebel cause, this could have been over in a matter of hours and not years, without ISIS taking over. If you let a sleeping dog lay, it won't bite you. Unfortunately Obama, Cameron and Merkel have awakened the bear the dragon, the dog and the snake all at the same time. Their bites will hurt and hurt bad. All this rubbish about 'moderate rebels' – the western propaganda machine must think we are all idiots, and they still continue to spew this RUBBISH hoping that we will buy it . US, French, British, Jordanian and Qatari aircraft are doing nothing. It's all a PR exercise for the masses back home, because ISIS is actually their proxy army in the Middle East. Obama is strong supporter of the Mother of all terrorist organizations namely the Muslim brotherhood Organization and Cameron is harboring most of MB's leaders in UK and now it's clear that the presence of ISIS in Syria and Iraq is orchestrated by the warmongers in the White house and Downing-street and their military aggressive thugs in the NATO for a lunatic economic adventure that resulted the killing of 100s of thousands and the displacement of millions civilian in Syria, Iraq and Libya and what is all that for? for the multi-national corporate in petrol companies and arms industry. All that and the citizens of Western Europeans are not aware of what the leader of the Free world preparing for them an apocalypse just for the desire to control establish supremacy and hegemony all over the world Obama aka the angel of death with drone killings (that were reclassified so they were not in civilian death figures) has been left with egg on his face as I suspect he armed the rebels and ISIS in the first place. So where's Obama? cowering under the table? caMORON and Obama NOT joining forces with Putin they have shown their true colours, The war has already spread into Saudi Arabia – Obama and Camerons deceit is going to bury them both soon, they have been pretending to fight IS/Al Qaeda/Al Nusra when in fact they have been arming and training them whilst turning a blind eye to Turkey bombing the Kurdish Militias and Israel bombing Assad
Egyptis also fighting Islamist Terrorists , Egypt who removed the Muslim Brotherhood from power in Egypt and immediately after the US and EU refused to supply arms to Egypt as they doing today with the legitimate government and regular army of Libya to pave the road for ISIS control of Libya
NATO and the west are sulking because they have been displaced as the world's policemen. Next the worst scenario for the West. Russia will now take over the middle east and the OIL. Saudis will be in trouble because their oil sales will also be taken form them and there is no way the West will move against Russia China and Iran. Putin again has outflanked the toothless, barking dogs . It will be a bad day for the West next when Russia takes over the middle east oil. This will end up as a stranglehold and the end of the petrodollar which will finish America and others.. The US have surely the least ineffectual leader for a very long time. How weak the west truly is, but a joke, that is why they are being slowly being consumed by 'political correctness' while Russia and China show them how to 'negotiate' with these murdering Islamic fundamentals. it'll teach America that it can't get away with being the world's bully boy much longer. Russia is about to show America how it is done and they will expose America for the fraud war in Syria. The west has lost respect and influence in this middle East while Russia had joined with Iran. They will be the dominant Players in this region now The UK itself is far to small to influence this region.

Last week I was commissioned to photograph the interior of the newly refurbished Knight & Garter pub in Leicester (formerly Molly O'Grady's Public House). The fantastic new interior design features herringbone flooring and an array of lighting fixtures, from ceiling LEDs to low hanging exposed bulbs.
The new bar also has a 60-seater restaurant, and there are plans to renovate the rest of the vast building to create a hotel in the city centre, adjacent to the Leicester City Rooms. Fusion Electrics are the company behind the state-of-the-art lighting.

Ericsson predicts broadband subscription growth
Subscriptions currently top half-a-billion, figure expected to double by end 2011
Erisson has estimated that global broadband subscriptions will reach 1.5 billion by the end of 2011. During the course of 2010, global mobile broadband subscriptions reached over half-a-billion.
The largest number, around 400 million new subscriptions, will be concentrated in the Asia-Pacific region, followed by North America and Western Europe with approximately 200 million subscriptions.
Ericsson believes that by 2015, mobile broadband subscriptions will hit approximately 3.8 billion, with 95% driven by HSPA, CDMA and Long-Term Evolution (LTE) networks.
The adoption of mobile broadband has grown exponentially with the introduction of smartphones, tablets and connected laptops, supported by high-performance networks, according to Ericsson. Users of these devices are increasingly connecting to the internet and using applications while they are on the go.
2010 was also a good year for LTE for Ericsson. To date, the company has signed contracts with 11 operators globally. Out of 16 networks delivered by Ericsson, half have been launched commercially.
LTE networks are enabling video streaming due to reduced latency and increased speed; this is attracting business users such as TV broadcasters and public safety organisations.
The introduction of these fast networks and smartphones and portable connectable devices has revolutionised the way users' access the internet, according to Ericsson. According A survey of LTE users by TeliaSonera's revealed that about 23% users now watch more online TV, and over 46% surf the web more frequently while away from home.
In August 2010, Ericsson announced that global mobile data traffic had tripled in just one year, the company expects this trend to continue.

For the quantitative determination of serum antibody response to diphtheria toxoid.
Diphtheria is an acute communicable disease, caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. The signs and symptoms of infection are a pharyngeal membrane, sore throat, dysphasia, malaise, headache, and nausea. Death may result from respiratory obstruction by the membrane or myocarditis from the toxin.
Although diphtheria is still a serious problem in many underdeveloped countries, active immunizations in many developed countries have helped to decrease the number of reported cases of diphtheria infection. Recent epidemics in eastern Europe and Russia, combined with low levels of protective diphtheria antitoxin (DAT) in adult populations, have caused concern that outbreaks of diphtheria could occur in developed countries.
A study in northern Europe reported findings of 26% of the surveyed population being below the minimum protective level of 0.01 IU/ml. A number of methods are available for evaluating the DAT levels in body fluids. Passive hemagglutination (PHA) is widely used, but has been found to be often discrepant, rendering interpretation of the PHA test very risky for the individual patient. The use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for determining DAT levels has been evaluated as simple to perform, economical, and precise.

Though I know to check out Fringe pieces by established artists, it's the fresh young talent that really blows me away.
Packing inventiveness, audacity and intensity into their one-hour shows, up-and-comers Anthony Furey and Johnnie Walker make their first Fringe appearances with, respectively, The Molly Murders and The Zoo-Keeper's Love Song.
And not only have the two written their shows, but they're directing them as well. Talk about leaping into the double-threat category.
Furey's play, inspired by events surrounding the death of Toronto youth Holly Jones a few years ago, looks at a grieving mother unwittingly lured into helping the cause of an unscrupulous politician.
Walker's fantasy-filled tale centres on siblings, a young woman who falls for imaginary characters and her brother, stalked by a movie star whose big-screen image doesn't match her off-screen personality.
The two writers, both finishing up degrees at the U of T, have another connection as well - the Tarragon's Paprika Festival, which stages the work of theatre artists under the age of 21.
Furey founded the fest and ran it for three years, while Walker's show was the most entertaining production in last spring's Paprika.
"It was only 25 minutes then, cut down from the hour-long version I'd written with the help of dramaturge Stephen Collela and director Eda Holmes," says Walker over a lunchtime sandwich. "But for the Fringe I've added lots of new sections rather than use the older script."
Watching the short Paprika show, Walker knew he wanted to create scenes involving the acting turns of Hollywood fave Jennifer Michelle Parker, the star of various bridal-themed horror films. You won't have to look hard for comparisons to several three-named women from TV-land, including Sarah Michelle Gellar. Walker recalls, as a Buffy devotee when he was in grade seven, believing that he and Gellar would make a perfect couple.
The writer also wove musician Josh Wynn into the tale as a singing narrator who functions both inside and outside the story.
Walker admits being inspired by an eclectic group of artists, including David Lynch, David Bowie (the red-headed Walker's wearing a Bowie button and a guitar pin), Jim Henson, Djanet Sears, Edward Albee and Don McKellar.
There's a lightness to his script, even with its serious theme of the dangers of falling in love with someone's image rather than the actual person. Furey's piece is more sombre.
With several workshopped scripts, a screenplay and directing experience on his resumé, Furey here tackles the deceptions that fill our everyday lives.
"I know that something's going on in our country, something about our befuddled democracy, that hasn't yet been addressed by serious artistic endeavour," offers the playwright. "I feel passionately about the issue and am trying to articulate its complexities through art. I think art does come out of a burning need to express something.
"We wear veils everywhere we go, veils that allow us to opt out of social responsibility," he continues. "This play seeks, without being a polemic, to strip away those veils."
How does the Fringe offer the two budding writers a chance to hone their craft?
"While you can catch a show that's the worst version of Pericles you've ever seen, the festival also has great potential," notes Furey. "There's no one to say, 'No, you can't do that. '"
"Anthony's right - you can catch some shit, but mixed in with it is some amazing stuff," adds Walker.
"I love the fact that you can do whatever you want on the Fringe stage. Anyplace else would give you restrictions of one sort or another.
"And the festival is such a great place for young theatre artists to start. How else would I have gotten The Zoo-Keeper on? I couldn't just call up CanStage and ask them to produce it."

Among the many photos adorning my living room that capture special moments in my life, including graduations, my marriage almost 30 years ago, and my son and daughter as they were growing up, is a photo of myself absorbed in conversation with Fidel Castro.
Somehow this photo stands out and captures the attention of friends, relatives and others, especially visiting for the first time. Awestruck by what they consider a great accomplishment, the usual remark is: "You really made into the big league."
Few English-speaking Caribbean journalists have had the privilege of interviewing the late Cuban leader and I was one of them. Even international media colleagues react in similar fashion; I pulled off what many would have loved to but never got the opportunity.
"What was Fidel like?" is the inevitable question which always arises in such encounters. To me, he was affable, charming, easy-going, soft-spoken, passionate on issues he held dear, deeply intellectual, witty. His charisma was such that you powerfully felt his presence. The stuff which defines great leaders!
Fidel proved, during our encounter, to be the opposite of the cruel and brutal dictator persistently portrayed by the mostly American media. It was difficult, after engaging him, not to go away without basically liking him. Furthermore, what really impressed was his sincerity, unswerving commitment to high moral principles and the pursuit of social justice for the poor, marginalized and outcast.
The interview, which was the subject of the photo, took place back in 1994 when Fidel visited Barbados for the Global Conference on the Sustainable Development of Small Island Developing States (SIDS). I was then Director of News and Current Affairs with the Caribbean News Agency (CANA).
When I began the interview by addressing him as "Excelentíssimo" in keeping with protocol, he promptly responded: "Llamamé Fidel! (Call me Fidel!"). The hour-long interview was no holds-barred. There were no requests for questions in advance, and he candidly answered what he was asked, never shying away from controversial issues such as alleged human rights abuses.
Now I had known of Cuba from a young age. My great-grandparents, who raised me, had connections with the island. My great-grandfather had spent some time there working in the sugar industry and used to regale us with exciting stories of his experiences.
He taught me my first Spanish words – azúcar (sugar) and mantequilla (butter). My great-grandmother, on the other hand, had a brother who had migrated and started a family in Baraguá, a town in central Cuba. Many Barbadian descendants still live there.
My introduction to Fidel and his politics occurred some 16 years prior to the interview. I was an 18 year old actively involved in student politics at the Barbados Community College when my good friend, the late Barbados Labour Party (BLP) senator and lawyer, Hutson Randolph Linton, gave me two books on radical political thought.
Linton, a proud son of St Philip, handed me a copy of History Will Absolve Me, Fidel's defence speech during his 1953 trial for the failed first attempt to overthrow the Batista regime which he eventually toppled in the 1959 revolution.
"This book is about standing up for what you believe and, as a young man with an interest in politics, I think you should read it," Linton said. The other book, The Marxists, was written by the late American sociologist C. Wright Mills.
My analysis and understanding of Fidel's politics differ somewhat fundamentally from the mainstream in that I have never seen Marxism-Leninism as the underpinning influence, even though he had described himself as such. I think it had to do more with his exposure to Catholic Social Teaching (CST) at a young age through his Jesuit education.
CST speaks to matters of social justice, including poverty and wealth, and has its origins in an 1891 encyclical by Pope Leo XIII that was entitled Rerum novarum, meaning 'Of Revolutionary Change'. It dealt with the wretched plight of the working class.
Given the injustices and inequalities which existed in pre-revolutionary, US-controlled Cuba, I believe it was CST's stirring call to stand on the side of the poor and exploited that most likely spurred Fidel to turn his back on the comfortable lifestyle afforded by his bourgeois family background.
To some degree, I see a similarity with Errol Barrow who too was a bourgeois but devoted his entire life to the struggle for a better life for the Barbadian working class. As a young man, Barrow would have been exposed to theological influences through his socially conscious father who was an Anglican priest and the social activism of his uncle Dr Charles Duncan O'Neale.
Little wonder Barrow had such great respect for Fidel, who felt similarly about him. Indeed, Fidel remained eternally grateful to Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago, led by visionary leaders in Barrow, Forbes Burnham, Dr Eric Williams and Michael Manley respectively, for establishing diplomatic relations with Havana in 1972.
That gigantic step requiring considerable courage by four small countries which exposed themselves to the risk of incurring the wrath of the United States, effectively ended revolutionary Cuba's diplomatic isolation in the Western Hemisphere.
Cuba's generous technical assistance to the region, especially in health care and education, has been Fidel's way of saying "thank you!"
Fidel, who died peacefully last Friday at the ripe old age of 90, can be summed up as the ultimate political conqueror, given the many challenges he overcame during his near 50 years as Cuba's revolutionary leader until 2008 when ill health forced him to retire.
Ironically, six months ago, a frail-looking Fidel prepared Cuba for his death in an address to the VII Congress of the Cuban Communist Party. "I'll be 90 years old soon," he said. "Soon I'll be like all the others." His burial is scheduled for this Sunday.
Overthrowing Fidel had been a key US foreign policy objective for five decades. Washington failed in this epic multi-pronged David and Goliath struggle which reportedly included over 600 attempts to assassinate the Cuban leader. Socialist Cuba is still standing and Fidel's death was attributable to old age.
I've always wondered why has the United States been so unrelenting towards Cuba. No American blood was spilled on Cuban soil as happened in Vietnam, for example; yet Washington pursued rapprochement with Vietnam but, until the Obama administration, maintained a hard line on Cuba. Did Fidel's defiance and outfoxing of Washington hurt US pride in a profound, unimaginable way?
History shows that dictators are generally toppled from within; either by persons in trusted positions or by the masses who, once transformed into a riotous mob, free themselves of fear which happens to be the most restraining emotion in a political context.
That this did not occur in Fidel's case is instructive; it suggests neither felt that their self-interest would be advanced by changing the status quo. Speaking of self-interest, once clearly identified and understood, it is a powerful trigger of human action.
It also seems that Fidel's opponents, for the most part, were overseas; they had either left Cuba or had been put out. And the persons who stayed, remained loyal because when they compared their situation before and after the revolution, life appeared better. This is a plausible explanation for the longevity of the Cuban revolution.
Fidel has now taken his place in history which, he accepts, will be his judge. His parting message, though, to those taking up the cause of the poor and marginalized is the rallying cry with which he ended every major speech.
"La lucha continua! Patria o muerte, venceremos!" (The struggle continues! Fatherland or death, we shall overcome!)

In the 12th century the rich and thriving town of Hastings was built around a harbour, used by the Norman kings to journey to Normandy.
But the port, on which the importance of Hastings depended, was destroyed in a series of great storms in the 13th century. The eastward drift of the shingle cut the harbour off from the sea, reducing Hastings to the status of a fishing village.
Centuries of attempts to replace the harbour failed. The town did not regain its prosperity until it became a fashionable resort in the early 19th century. By this time the harbour had become a marsh, through which ran the Priory Stream. The area between the marsh and the shore, once sea, became firm ground, behind a shingle bank.
The White Rock jutted out further than it does today, protecting the new land. In the early 1800s the future America Ground was empty. A group of leading Hastings merchants, most notably members of the Breeds family, decided to make use of the land. They set up rope walks, long straight paths on which rope was manufactured, as well as warehouses.
Houses were also constructed, some made from old boats and by the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 there was a substantial population living and working there. Many trades were carried out, while a room over one of the warehouses was forerunner to the William Parker School.
After the war the population expanded further and contemporary views of Hastings from the White Rock show what was in fact the America Ground. At some point Hastings Corporation sent in bailiffs, it is said to apprehend suspected felons. The inhabitants of the ground rioted in protest and chased the officials back over the Priory Bridge. They hoisted the American flag, the Stars and Stripes, as a symbol of their independence, which they maintained to the end of their occupation of the land.
To fly this flag within living memory of the American Revolution would have been regarded as a most defiant gesture. An 1828 enquiry resulted in the land, which had once been sea, being seized as Crown Property. Those who lived and worked on the America Ground were allowed a further seven years of occupancy. Some of the inhabitants dismantled their homes and re-erected them in St Leonards, where they are still standing, mainly in Shepherd and North Streets.
The 'Americans' had remained independent until the end. In 1832 they marched on a civic banquet held on Priory Meadow, carrying their flag, which now also bore the Union Flag and the Arms of Hastings. It was presented to the borough as a gesture of reconciliation. Patrick Robertson built the present Victorian town centre on the America Ground between 1850 and 1855.
Thanks to Dennis Collins for research. An exhibition on the subject of America Ground will be mounted at the History House, Courthouse Street, Old Town; it will run from June 29 to July 20. Further details: www.visit1066country.com/attractions/hastings-history-house.

FG forces rebel TD to quit Dail health chair
FORMER Fine Gael TD Denis Naughten was given an ultimatum yesterday by his former party about a €9,500 post: quit or be fired.
He was told by Government chief whip Paul Kehoe that if he did not resign as chairman of the Oireachtas Health Committee, the Government would move a motion in the Dail to remove him.
Mr Naughten said he chose to resign because it meant he would be allowed to stay on the committee as an ordinary member.
"I felt it was important that with all that has gone on that, I was there to formally contribute to that," he said.
Mr Naughten lost the Fine Gael party whip last week after he voted against the Government's decision to close Roscommon County Hospital's 24-hour A&E unit.
During his brief period as health committee chair he had arranged for Health Minister Dr James Reilly and the HSE to to visit the area and explain changes being made to local hospitals. That meeting will take place next Thursday.
Mr Naughten said he was not bothered by the loss of the €9,500 annual payment, which will now go to his replacement -- Fine Gael Cork South Central TD Jerry Buttimer.
Mr Naughten said there was a 50-50 split between Fine Gael TDs in Leinster House who knew he had promised to defend the hospital and those who believed he should have toed the party line.
"Politically, I'm going to be ostracised now and I know personally I will be ostracised as well. But within the constituency people seem to feel I took a principled stand and they are standing by me," he said.
Although the Roscommon A&E closed on Monday, it has emerged that services at one of the local hospitals on the "downgrading list" will be retained for at least six months.
The commitment to retain the round-the-clock emergency services in Navan hospital in Meath was made by Dr Reilly at a meeting with hospital supporters.
Navan has already lost its right to carry out complex or emergency surgeries but it continues to have on-site anaesthetic cover and can care for a broad range of patients. Sinn Fein Meath West TD Peadar Toibin, who is the chairman of the Save Navan Hospital group, said Dr Reilly had pledged to keep the A&E department open for at least six months and possibly up to a year.
However, Dr Reilly told the group that the hospital's laboratory would close.

Washington - A Wiccan delegation has tried tipping-off both President Obama and House of Representatives Speaker Boehner about the cosmic build-up to Friday's eclipsed fool moon.
Citing a blob of ugly karmic high pressure over the US Capitol the coven insists a series of scary cloud images is spelling out a stark debt ceiling message along the strictly bipartisan Wiccan adage of 'As Above, So Below'.
"That means you too, Boehner," coven leader Pulmonaria Ragwort tweeted as a .44 Magnum revolver-shaped cumulus formation transited the DC skyline replacing last weekend's aerial drone image that hovered at leisure over the West Wing.
At 25-degrees Aries Friday's lunar eclipse will straddle strategic zodiac fault lines common to both Speaker Boehner and President Obama's natal charts.
Wiccans believe the politicians' astrological make-up shows them locked in a bitter game of bluff that first peaked this year during the Presidential Inauguration.
"It's what you call toxic chemistry," Ragwort commented homing in on a post-Inauguration Lunch that saw Michelle Obama cold-shoulder House top dog Boehner for hinting he knew all about her 'Beyonce stuff'.
This alleges First Lady Michelle once shagged Vice President Joe Biden before giving birth to the famous singer whose safe and successful adoption was hurriedly arranged by the Delaware Senator.
Expect sparks to fly ahead of the eclipse as both sides hunker down to screw over the other before the lunar shadow-path crosses Capitol Hill.

Another effective way to increase profit through affiliate marketing is offering valuable information to your readers, providing solutions to their problems and establishing yourself as an expert in your chosen niche. Don't promote products just to cash in, make sure you offer great products that you actually believe in. You need to earn credibility as an affiliate marketer and it all start with solving problems and offering relevant and information content.
Offer Incentives to Customers
Everyone loves freebies so why not stir the pot once in a while, instigate a contest or offer bonuses. What's great about offering bonuses is that you can track each sale you make. Most affiliate tracking systems are not capable of tracking all sales so it's possible that someone else might be credited for a sale that was supposedly yours. This happens whenever cookies are deleted or blocked.
To avoid this, be sure to link the incentive you offer with the order made by the customers. Just make sure to include a bonus that your customers would love to get. Look for something that customers will value. This will not only increase your sales, it will also make your readers happier.

EdX, a MOOC site, is offering Learning From Data. This is a course about machine learning offered by Caltech. The course started yesterday, so there is still time to get started. The course has 2 tracks: audit and certificate. It looks great. Good Luck.
9 thoughts on "Machine Learning MOOC from EdX"
I have seen a bunch of the videos for this class. The teacher is AMAZING! He has a gift for explaining complex ideas in a simple manner.
Very interesting MOOC. How does it compare with Prof. Ng's one in Coursera?
Hi – thanks for the post. As said earlier, Prof. Abu-Mostafa is indeed an excellent (and funny!) teacher, who can break down and explain complex Machine Learning (ML) topics into understandable pieces! Prof. Andrew Ng's ML Coursera course is also excellent and highly recommended! He also breaks it down into understandable pieces with a hands-on approach.
Having followed both courses, I would say that Prof. Andrew's course might be a good starting point. For a beginner in ML (like myself), I find it more practical, although he also touches on the theoretical aspects, but with a practical approach. Prof. Abu-Mostafa's course is more fundamental (but also with examples), but he explains it in such a way that it isn't 'dry' or difficult to follow. On the contrary! As such, my advice would be to start with the Coursera course to whet your appetite and then take Prof. Abu-Mostafa's course.
However, if you prefer the other way around or even in parallel, that is, of course, also possible. It is just a matter of personal taste.
Above all, have fun with this exciting topic!
Yet not noticeably popular in India, the concept of MOOC is fast spreading giving way to an all new stage in the field of education and learning. Found a very useful article in this context: http://prik.in/2013/09/moocs-a-fad-or-a-real-boom/

CAR-301,060 (also known as cis-2-Methyl-3-quinuclidinylphenylcyclopentylglycolate or just by its code number 301060) is a potent and long lasting anticholinergic deliriant drug, related to the chemical warfare agent 3-Quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB). It was developed under contract to Edgewood Arsenal during the 1960s as part of the US military chemical weapons program, during research to improve upon the properties of earlier agents such as QNB.
CAR-301,060 was found to be slightly less potent than QNB, and with around the same duration of action, but with a very high central to peripheral effects ratio.[1][2]

Masternodes: A collection of currently valid and updated guides...

Masternodes: A collection of currently valid and updated guides...
...from the first installation, to securing the VPS/server, to the resolution of the most common problems.
Official installation guide at this direct link:
In more than a year of activity of our masternodes network, various guides have been written, starting naturally from the official installation guide that is the basis of everything and which is also linked to the official website 3dcoin.io in the "Resources" menu.
But whoever decides to undertake the strenuous but fascinating way of the "masternode operator" knows that during his installation, management, maintenance, updating of his or her own masternodes he will have to face many difficulties and problems that are physiological but whose resolution does not other than to increase the experience of the masternode operator and this is a benefit for the whole network because a network managed by expert masternode operators who know how to deal with problems with cold determination is a stronger network.
With particular pride I remember that the 3DCoin network recognized the utmost importance to masternodes (and therefore to masternodes operators) with the "mining fork" intervened at block 475000 on March 14, 2019, when the classic mining "POW" was stopped and it is the new innovative and experimental protocol "Proof of Sync" has been implemented which entrusts the creation of blocks exclusively to masternodes. The "classic masternodes 101" introduced by Dash as a technology now in the distant 2014 are then brought by 3DCoin to a level of importance and absolute specialization since the masternodes in the 3DCoin network become the only "miners" or "forgers", that is the only creators of the blocks. In fact it is difficult to find a suitable term since it is an absolute novelty. However regardless of the terminology, it is important to underline that precisely this pre-eminent role of masternodes in the 3DCoin network requires a particular commitment and great preparation and specialization of masternodes operators, to note that currently as I write today 30 April 2019 the network consists of more than 4000 masternodes enabled (so it is one of the most extensive masternodes networks in the world, to make a comparison consider that Dash at the moment does not reach 5000 masternodes enabled). For those wishing to explore the important role of the masternodes in the 3DCoin network here are two links that point directly to the sections of the Whitepaper and of the official Wiki where the unique features of the 3DCoin masternodes are explained in detail:
Whitepaper sections:
Wiki sections:
So we said, the masternodes operators are required to know how to intervene in case of problems to their masternodes, with cold determination and without panic. After all it must also be fun to play the role of masternodes operator, so here is to follow the collection of links with useful guides for masternodes operators, starting again from the official installation guide that is always good to keep on hand and then to follow all other topic-specific guides:
Official 3DCoin masternode installation guide:
Official 3DCoin masternode Github repository:
Additional specific and optional guides:
Guide: "Masternodes: Guide 2-in-1... How to verify installed version and if autoupdate is active."
Guide: "Masternodes: Secure your node in two steps. SSH port change and more. Implemented instructions and scripts in the official repository."
Guide: "Masternode problems? HOWTO uninstall and make a clean installation (the classic "red panic button" when you do not have other solutions)"
Guide: Masternodes: HOWTO solve sync or stuck problems of nodes (VPS / server side)
Guide: MNCACHE.DAT file - UNOFFICIAL guide to create a simple ".bat" file for Windows that removes automatically the mncache.dat file before starting the 3DCoin Core Qt wallet. For masternode owners. BASIC GUIDE
Guide: Core Qt 3DCoin Wallet how to make a clean fresh install (also with backup of your wallet)
Guide: Core Qt 3DCoin Wallet and blocks: How to solve block sync, stuck, split chain problems.
Well, this above is the list of useful guides for masternodes operators. The last three are guides related to the "control wallet" 3DCoin Core QT installed in the computer but certainly useful especially for masternodes operators.
In addition to the guides collected in this topic, to 3DCoin masternodes operators other important documentation and assistance resources are offered through the Telegram messaging app, in particular we have the official Telegram group available at https://t.me/Project_Districts and my unoufficial personal channel / blog always on Telegram available at https://t.me/Districts_3DCoin where they are collected guides, tips and tricks, quick commands, links, in short a small toolbox that is also always available in your smartphone. In any case, for any doubt or need, I suggest you always refer to the official support through this 3dctalk.net forum and through the official Telegram group where you are always welcome and you will find our wonderful community in addition to competent project team!
Enjoy and have fun with your 3DCoin masternode(s) !!!

Press release courtesy of PWInsider.
Wrestling Superstar Shad Gaspard and Producer Jordan Yale Levine team up for "Untouchable."
Former WWE (World Wresting Entertainment) Superstar, Shad Gaspard, is teaming up with Film Producer, Jordan Yale Levine (Tooth and Nail, The Land of the Astronauts), to star in the Action/Thriller film, "Untouchable," through Levine's Yale Productions.
"Untouchable," written by Matt Thompson, is the story of Former Delta Force soldier turned bodyguard, James Xavier (Gaspard). Xavier is the best at what he does, protecting & securing his clients, while always keeping an emotional distance. But when Isabella Williams witnesses Crime Boss Joseph Berlusconi murder his girlfriend, Xavier is hired to protect her, from Berlusconi's crew of assassins until she testifies against him, in this hard-hitting action thriller.
This will be the second time Gaspard and Levine are working together, as Gaspard is appearing in "Petunia," a dark comedy, directed byAsh Chrisitan, that Levine and Christian are producing, the end of January 2011, starring Thora Birch, Christine Lahti, and Michael Urie. Producers came up with the idea for Gaspards character in "Untouchable," based upon his role as a bodyguard in the upcoming "Petunia." A former bodyguard himself, Gaspard will expand on his character in "Petunia," and show the world a look into the secret life of this mysterious, dangerous, yet rewarding job.
With this transition into acting, Gaspard is following in the footsteps of other great former wrestlers, such as Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Steve Austin. Just earlier this year, Gaspard was in the running for a prominent role in the reboot "Conan the Barbarian" starring Jason Momoa. The role ultimately went to MMA fighter Bob Sapp, but, this has not slowed down the 6'7″, 280lb behemoth, nicknamed "The Beast," as "Untouchable," will be Gaspard's debut lead role.
Set for a mid 2011 year shoot, in Miami Florida. Look out for many more updates in the upcoming months, as this film will not disappoint!
