You're ready to wash your car. Just squirt some detergent in a bucket, fill it with warm water, and scrub away, right? Well, not if you want to protect the paint on your car. So, what is the best product to use as a car wash? Dish detergents (Ivory Liquid, Dawn, etc.) may be used, but realize that these products are designed to remove grease from your dishes. They will treat your wax job the same way. If you want to have your wax last a lot longer, you should use a product that is specifically designed for automotive use. Quality car washes/shampoos are usually pH controlled, contain gloss enhancers and some even have small amounts of wax for good measure.
Start with a clean large bucket, add a small amount of the car wash, and fill with cool water. Avoid hot water, as it will soften the wax on your car. The more car wash, the more wax you remove so use it sparingly. Try to avoid powder car washes as the undissolved granules can lodge under your sponge or wash mitt and scratch the paint surface.
Next, make sure that your car is in the shade and the paint surface is relatively cool. If you can comfortably hold your hand on the hood, you can wash and wax your car.
You may use a wash mitt or sponge to wash your car. Spray the car with a gentle spray to thoroughly wet the surface. Don't use a high pressure nozzle because it may grind the surface grime into the paint and cause scratches. Start at the top of the car and work down. Rewet the top; gently wash the top and then rinse. Move onto another section, such as the trunk or hood. Re-wet this area, wash and rinse. Continue on down the car, completing a section at a time. Rinse your mitt often to release the dirt so it doesn't scratch the paint.
If your car is particularly dirty, you may want to give it a second washing with a new bucket of detergent. Wash, rinse,repeat.
You should dry the car as soon as possible. Always try to use a 100% cotton towel. Starting at the top, lay the towel on the top and then gently blot up the water from the surface. Change to a dry towel and blot any remaining water. Next, dry all of the windows to avoid streaks. Again, do the initial drying with one towel, then use a drier towel to finish the job. Move to the hood or trunk and repeat. Dry the sides last, as the water will usually take care of itself on these surfaces. Avoid driving the car to dry it because you will accumulate dirt on the wet surface and allow it to dry on the paint.
If all of this sounds like too much trouble, bring your car to the experts at Towne Lake's Carwash and Detail in Woodstock, GA .

Hyphenated Virtuosity
This album I've been aching to review for a long time. Princ Persii, a now-defunct Saint Petersburg band, took shape after the dissolution of a screamo project sometime in 2010, played a few shows, quietly plopped out a self-titled 25-minute digital release, and promptly disappeared again. Their members are unknown, their internet footprint is a negligible blip on Russian social media, and non-existent in the west; not counting a limited cassette release earlier this year, no labels have ever been in touch with the band. What I'm trying to convey here is that the public eye/ear hasn't been very kind to Princ Persii, and I fear their contribution to the so far predominantly western post-black scene has not yet and will not for a long time receive the acclaim it deserves.
That is a massive shame, because Princ Persii has created a unique, invigorating piece of work here. The sludgy guitar texture and pummeling, low-end riffs characteristic of post-metal – think Omega Massif – are melted down and poured in a mid-paced post-black mould, imbued with crusty/post- hardcore rage redolent of Ancst and tempered in a shower of mournful atmospheric flourishes. You would think a style requiring so many hyphenated subgenres to describe would sound either inordinately contrived or wholly untethered, but by virtue of Princ Persii's meticulous craftsmanship it's kept solid, concise and riff-centric all the way through.
Out of the murk that is "L" – a dark ambient piece with what I'm assuming is a female spoken-word sample from a Russian-dubbed film – a despondent bass guitar arises, etching out "IX"'s simple but hooky main riff, which is then engulfed by the twin guitar surge – rhythm and lead guitars bifurcating in palm-muted chugs and gritty, soaring highs and reuniting again to deliver the key chords. Over the course of two minutes this chord sequence is repeated, tweaked, broken up and filled in, until it collapses in a morose, vocal-driven dirge – never just milling about but always determinedly moving forward, aided by the excellent percussion, which is crisp and has a knack for finding gaps in the rest of the instrumentation to caulk with fills.
While "C" and "F" are more simple, subtle ambient synth pieces – interludes without the ambition or need to be more than that – "II", "I" and "VIII" tread in IX's footsteps; "II" with less focus on The Big Riff and more on song dynamics – fury and melancholy, hold and release, short bursts of intensity followed by protracted swathes of dark alluvium – while "I" takes this post-rock quiet-LOUD philosophy to its logical end and seamlessly alternates between frenetic episodes of high-speed battering and introspective, clean noodling. It's also on "I" that the vocals – like a less constricted, more slavic relative of Altar of Plagues's rasps – shine the brightest, furiously exhorting and punctuating the guitars and occasionally breaking to reveal the human beneath.
Marks are detracted for the marginally less interesting closer "VIII" – which, in its atmospheric-intro-into-blasting bipolarity, stands out against the dynamic songwriting prevalent in the other songs –, but otherwise Princ Persii is a stellar achievement, exuding a confidence and self-knowledge seldom witnessed in bands so young and underground. The mix helps with this, every instrument getting equal room and utilizing this to the fullest, and while the lower end of the percussive spectrum may occasionally get buried in the action, these blurry teeth do not significantly detract from the engrossing wonder that is following how the fine cogwheels of Princ Persii's watch interlock and swivel. Sound-wise, comparisons can be made to the earlier-mentioned Altar of Plagues and the Czech ██████, but with interesting stuff happening all the time, which immediately brings Vattnet Viskar's self-titled EP to mind: both bands opt for conciseness and heaviness over the atmospheric vistas characteristic of the genre, and manage to convey this with not just aggression but also sophistication.
If metal with any post-elements appeals to you, do your duty and give Princ Persii a chance.

So everyone has pretty much been holding their breath waiting for my post on the very first Crafter's Expo we held last Sunday at Royal Rodale. Alhamdulillah, the event turned out to be a phenomenal achievement, and MashaAllah is a milestone, not just for me, but my country, and my crafty friends! I've always wanted to attend scrapbooking fairs and things in the U.S... but for some reason or another my travel plans are bonkers and I can't quite make it to any of them. I skipped out Maya Road's Mixed Media workshops to I could be here to host the Crafter's Expo under the Crafters' Guild.
The Guild, was formulated to facilitate crafts and crafters of all backgrounds... it's a platform that I've taken up to promote crafting to the next level with inshaAllah. As of now, we're working on developing the website, to get the listing going, we're also forming the The Guild Team, which is our design team! :D We get to put together fun projects every month for our members to take inspiration from and learn new techniques and things with. Members only content though.
Nearing the expo date, we gave our scrapbooking goodies a new home. MashaAllah we're authorized retailers for scrapbooking products in Pakistan. A Cloud 9 kinda feeling if you ask me! On the day of the expo, I launched Jugnoo & Junoon. A grown up Firefly for our fans that grew up with us... I was in my 3rd year of university when Firefly began. Today I'm a Textile Designer, a graduate, a married young woman! Just because we grow up, doesn't quite mean our tastes and palette have to. I came up with Jugnoo & Junoon to cater to our necessities for work, our evening ensembles and of course, our day to day accessories. Jugnoo & Junoon will be developing collections for accessories such as bags and scarves... and the occasional tunics and tops. inshaAllah. We debuted our first collection of clutches in jewel colors at the expo. It's been a week and we're pretty much sold out. MASHAALLAH.
There's so much happening in this realm, that I cannot find ways to thank my Rabb for His countless favors and abundance of blessings. Alhamdulillah!
Looking back now, thinking about what the Crafter's Expo began with, as a small stall after my workshop... grew into an event that brought people from all over Karachi to visit. We had over 2000 visitors on Sunday at Royal Rodale. So many of them specifically came looking for me. It was pretty neat interacting with a lot of people who actually took interest in finding out more about the Guild and the Expo itself. That's colossal! At the end we had over 55 vendors. Two of them participated from Lahore and Faislabad. One of them, Shereen Aunty from Many Happy Returns actually came to Karachi FOR the expo... That was amazing. Gave it the real expo feel! We had paper crafts, suppliers, party planning and favors, gifts and greetings, lamps, clay work, handmade accessories and jewelry, home textiles and handicrafts!
What topped this 'Sun-dae' was the fact that Die Cuts with a View and Graphic 45 had send us paper stacks to give away and use specifically for the event. How cool is that?! MashaAllah, we came up to par with international events of the sort to be able to acquire such favors, don't you think?
What marvels me is the support I've had from everyone throughout the whole expo prep and execution process. MashaAllah, our country is full of talented and dedicated people. So many of them exhibited for the very first time. I feel over the moon elated when they tell me their experience was fab or the response they received was amazing. It makes me take a breath of relief that Alhamdulillah, we worked hard to promote this, and it worked. :)
It's going to take a little bit of time to make people understand the value of crafts or the concept of crafting in general, going to pursue that through the Crafters' Guild inshaAllah. :) I may not reside here 12 months of the year, but here's my promise inshaAllah. Firefly and the Crafters' Guild will work on an expo every year, so Karachi, Expo 2013 is inshaAllah a feat we're working on. God willing. :) Super excited!!!
The venue, the crowd, the set up, the format. Everything worked. It was the first time and MashaAllah we got it right. I'm going to post my thank you's and a few 'vendor' notes so that all can follow up. Thank you Karachi for visiting us. And thank you to all the Crafters that took a leap with me on this. No one had the slightest idea this would be what it is. Allah Kareem is awesome.. and life is just as beautiful as we make it :)
We were featured in a blog by Priyank Pahuja at the Tribune :) worth a read everybody!
I request you all to keep Firefly, me the Firefly Girl and my family in your kind duas. We need them lately as my nani has been in the hospital :) She's recovering but it'll be a bit til she's a 100%.
Til a day before the expo, everything was disoriented for me. I had no bed to sleep on as every where I stepped there was inventory, packing, wrapping or something or another. I had actually left my inventory at home on the day of the expo. -_-; The floor plan I issued the venue was pretty well followed except for our Hall One, which was a disaster when I walked in that morning. We gave booth numbers to all our vendors... we issued badges/passes for all of them. Our event backdrop never went up :( but oh well, our wall of crafty thoughts was awesome!
My thoughts on The Expo, the day after:
Allahu Akbar.. all praise is to Him Alhamdulillah! What an out of this world experience!!! In a state of Euphoria at this point...For every person that said Congratulations or Thank.you... I want to remind everyone that this event would be nothing but a dream without amazingly talented people being on board. I thank each of you that participated for leaping forward with me on working towards an event of this magnitude not just for crafts, but Pakistan. I am humbled by the love, support and overall appreciation.
I want to send out thank yous to Hera, Erum, Noveen, Anaum and Ghazal Api for being with me when this idea was just a little hatchling... I want to thank my biggest support system ever, my husband Zaiq for believing in my whimsical adventures and being there for me round the clock. My parents, aunt and uncle for bearing with the madness. My baby sister for being my little assistant... My brother Ali who leaves for abroad on Tuesday and dedicated his time to Firefly. My sister Sheena for putting in her day off to help out! Nivy I missed you heaps during this one month! My printer, uncle thank you SO much! Ahmed Ilyas, for working out our bags for Jugnoo & Junoon. Saud, for working so hard on getting cushions done for launch time. Royal Rodale management for being so so accommodating and cooperative. My best friends, for coming out to see me and be ng th me! A big big thank you to my volunteers, my super stars. This bunch of young people did an outstanding job! Namely Sabita and Rabbiya along with Iqra and Ramsha's group of friends. Rahat Bhai, thank you for looking into matters for the last ten days and helping me out all the way! My photographers, Rija, Fahad, Shaykh Yusuf, Wahaj at HocusFocus and Nadeem Bhai!
Thank you to Handmade Memories for sending heaps of wishes and offering gifts for the draw. Thank you to Many Happy Returns that flew in from Faislabad to participate at this event! Thank you to Craftaholics and Fancies & Flutters for being ever ready to participate in Karachi!
I cannot leave out the 2000+ visitors and fans! It was wonderful finally meeting so many of you!!! Thank you for coming with your loved ones. :) especially Shahrain and her family who visited us from Hyderabad!
This Crafter's Expo was the first... And mashaAllah it was great! We hope to carry it forward every year! InshaAllah. Congratulations Pakistan... At the end of the day it really isn't about a match won. We have tons of victories to celebrate... Like yesterday... When over 50 crafters united on one platform to share with the world what they are most passionate about, when international manufacturers sent items for an expo of this sort! Thank you Kelly at Graphic45 and Ashlee & Chuck at Die Cuts with a view!
The Firefly Girl and her journal thank everyone for a chapter to muse and write about. Alhamdulillah! This is all due to prayers of my Shaykh and the Great Favor of Allah Subhanau Ta'la upon all of us. May Allah Kareem grant barakah to all, and may He give us the hidaya to promote good and be a means to support efforts of all deserving.

Caput Medusae air plants are named for their resemblance to Medusa, the Greek goddess famous for her hair made of snakes. Also known as an "Octopus" plant, this plant features long, tentacle-like leaves that grow in a swirling pattern up from the base. We are thrilled to offer this highly unique and sought-after air plant at a truly impressive size of 6 to 10 inches in height, as well as smaller varieties between 2 to 5 inches in height.
This plant's maturity and larger size means that its care requirements are even less than smaller air plants. Large air plants can tolerate less watering and less lighting than their smaller counterparts. Caput Medusae are particularly gorgeous when in bloom; they typically bloom 2 to 3 times a year, featuring bright pink or purple blooms.
These indoor plants don't need soil to grow, so they can flourish in many different environments. Additionally, they require only a moderate amount of light and only need watering about once a week, making them the lowest-maintenance plants available!
What separates these unique plants from other plants are their leaves, which have adapted to absorb water and nutrients from the air. This allows air plants to thrive when they are suspended in the air or grown atop driftwood and rocks. Air plants are perfect for terrariums, cages, and glass containers with holes or gaps that allow for plenty of air flow. There are a myriad of other creative ways to display air plants; the possibilities are limited only by your imagination!
We recommend keeping air plants where they receive a moderate amount of light. Indirect sunlight and artificial home/office lighting are appropriate for these plants. It's generally safe to keep air plants in direct sunlight for a short period of time each day, but we recommend misting them with water to keep them from drying out. The optimal way to water these air plants is to mist them lightly 2-3 times per week. If you find the leaves of your air plants are becoming soft or pale in color, this means the plant is too dry and should be watered more often.
Purchasing air plants through Plants for Pets has the following benefits:
Healthy live arrival guaranteed: Your air plants will arrive alive and healthy. Each order will come with a 100 percent live arrival guarantee, plus free email support directly from us.
Supporting homeless animals: A portion of the proceeds made here at Plants for Pets will go toward paying the adoption fees and covering the housing costs of at-risk dogs and cats at Indianapolis Animal Care Services.

The Roadrunners of Rt. 66 Have Arrived
Yesterday, September 4, the first two of six roadrunners of Route 66 wayfinding were installed along Central Ave. The first roadrunners found their homes at Central and Louisiana and at Central and Tulane in Nob Hill. Tramway will be installed next week, and the BioPark sign the week following. San Pasquale and Central in Old Town and Coors and Central will hopefully be completed before the end of September.
With "66" all aglow in neon at the Tulane and Central location — the only sign thus far to have its neon installed — these iconic structures caught much attention their first night out with folks taking pictures and marveling at these new Albuquerque landmarks.
A total of 6 roadrunner signs will be installed along Albuquerque's Mother Road, at these locations: Tramway and Central, Louisiana and Central, Tulane and Central, BioPark, Old Town, Coors and Central.
We are in charge of building and installing all of these signs with the invaluable help of a subcontractor, though EFG was awarded this contract.
The Tramway location was funded by Councilor Harris. The five other signs were funded by a Federal National Scenic Byways Grant funds and a City Match.
Share you experience with these fun wayfindings at #roadrunnersofrt66

Lonza (SWX:LONN) announced today that it has received the Frost & Sullivan Market Leadership Award for Global Transfection Leadership. This award is given to a single company annually that has displayed excellence in all areas of the market leadership process, including the identification of market challenges, drivers and restraints, as well as strategy development, and methods of addressing these market dynamics.

Hi, I'm want to make a drum set similar to one here using Raspi, Capacitive sensor MPR121 hat and program it with Scratch. See link here:
My issues are:
- I don't see anywhere on Scratch that recognizes the sensor pads. Even on the "Sensor" commands, I don't see it. Also, even when I make a new block enabling the GPIO, I can't see or input the pin number.
Is there any way to do this?
How do I program on Scratch to recognize the capacitive sensor hat.

UK Needs New Health Tax
February 10, 2017 Taxation in UK
LONDON – The UK health system needs its own dedicated tax to ensure that it has an independent and reliable source of funding in the future.
In a new article published on February 8th in the medical journal, the British Medical Journal, the researcher Richard Layard suggested that a new tax on personal incomes be enacted in the UK, with the revenues being ringfenced exclusively for use in the national medical system.
It was proposed that the new tax be levied on top of existing taxes and levies, although some tax cuts could be enacted to the personal income tax system to compensate for the rise.
The exact rate for the tax should be set to cover the total of the expenses of the medical system.
The rate could be varied based on the needs of the medical system, and taxpayers' satisfaction with services, and their willingness to pay out more of their incomes.
As the entirety of the revenues from the new tax would be dedicated to health spending there would be little to no pressure for the government to cut spending on healthcare in order to meets its own budgetary requirements.
Under the present system, all taxes, including National Insurance Contributions are collected as a general revenue total, with payments to various social services allocated separately from the total.

The pain of graduation: 5-inch heels
After attending several graduation ceremonies and being regaled with a treasure chest full of bejeweled uplifting messages about the grand journey of life ("This is not an end but a beginning") and the meaning of success (hint: "it's not about money") and the richness of friendship and the importance of persistence and the power of big dreams, I can say that the overwhelming image that I carried away from each of these lovely occasions is this one: Girls and young women with sky-high heels literally tripping down the aisle to pick up their diplomas.
Call me unsentimental, call me old fashioned; go ahead and accuse me of being in the pocket of the podiatrists' lobby.
There is not a single decent reason for eighth grade girls or 12th grade girls or college graduates, or, frankly, women of any age, to be wearing heels (considered by podiatrists to be more than two inches high) that not only are impossible to walk in normally but strain the knee, push hips and spine out of alignment, shorten calf muscles, cause toes to hurt or become numb, lead to hammertoes and joint pain in the ball of the foot, impair balance and risk a sprained or broken ankle, or even create a bony enlargement on the heel known as Haglund's deformity.
You'd think that knowledge of the Haglund's deformity possibility alone would significantly cut down on the sale of 4-inch and 5-inch and 6-inch heels. Aren't 3-inch heels back enough?
Yet in ceremony after ceremony, you can see the audience nervously watch some poor girl start to topple as she heads toward the podium to collect her diploma, and collectively breathe a sigh of relief when she steadies herself just in time.
If you've been shopping for graduation or prom shoes, you know what I mean.
Somehow, American women have been sold on the notion that they look better in shoes that are harmful to them.
Nowhere in the curriculum from preschool through college graduation is there enough emphasis on teaching girls enough about physiology, long-term health consequences, or the importance of having the strength to say 'no' to sadistic shoe designers.
So I propose that somewhere in between lessons on quadratic equations, the elements on the periodic table and whether Romeo really loved Juliet or just loved being in love, teachers spend more time explaining why it would be better not to malign the female foot.
In fact, the British government helped fund a six-week program for 16-year-olds to teach them how to walk in high heels to prepare them for a career in the business world and for their social lives, according to the Daily Mirror. Now that's some forward thinking.
Either we are going to have to rely on schools to give lessons on how to buy shoes, or parents and women of all ages are going to have to learn how to just say "no."
It would be nice to attend a graduation commencement and be able to concentrate on the graduation.

I just got back from a week in Paris, and one of the things I noted was that Parisian women wear sensible shoes. I don't think I saw more than 5 women in stilettos during the week, and none of those was higher than 4 inches. What I saw was predominantly flats, and the occasional 2-inch heel, but of a broader sturdier variety.
So I will continue to wear my sensible heels and flats, and embrace my inner Parisian.

I never got the fascination with wearing these things to prom/graduation, but for a somewhat different reason: the super-high heels tend to realign the leg muscles so that your legs and butt look more appealing, yes -- but if you're wearing a big billowy graduation robe, or a long skirt, and said skirt/dress is not skin tight (I know, possibly a big assumption, but most of them I saw weren't), you're not going to realize the aesthetic benefits anyway. I wore short 1" strappy heels (which I still have, and are insanely comfortable) to my prom and HS graduation and combat boots to my college graduation (although I'll admit my undergrad graduation was a bit less formal than many -- I still did wear an academic robe though).
When I graduate with my Master's next year, I don't plan on tottering around in heels. (Then again, I'm tall in the first place, so I don't tend to wear them normally anyway; I find that the women who wear staggeringly high heels on a regular basis tend to be under about 5'4").

Well, if we're going to be honest, women DO look better in high heels.
Who says?
Men say so, and also most women fashion stylists. After all, despite the health issues, that's why women wear them. Because they think, and other tell them, that they look good in them.

I have congenitally crappy ankles and hips - while I had one or two pairs of 3" stilettos I loved to wear in my 20's for dressier occasions, I had to give them up as the disease progressed. For dress, I have one pair of navy and one pair of black 2" "Spanish" square heels and a pair of great black riding-style boots (i.e. - no heel). Not fashionable, but stable. I'm the envy of every stiletto wearing woman at any party where walking on grass is part of the occasion, because they are falling and aerating the grass and I'm stable.
As for the graduations, I'm just fondly smiling on my own college graduation. It was the last one my school held in the outdoors stadium. We had bought cute dresses to wear under our gowns...but as the day neared, the weather forecast loomed hot and muggy and potentially rainy. The school banished umbrellas for the students, saying umbrellas would only be a danger on the field since we were all crammed in there at close quarters.
Both the students - and the faculty who had to sit with us on the field in their insanely expensive regalia - complained but the school wouldn't budge.
We all ended up wearing our oldest clothes under the gowns and polishing up our sneakers to wear on the grass field. Because quick tests on the hems of our gowns showed the dye wasn't waterproof, and we all knew how muddy our campus was in the wet. Even my mother - a stickler for dressing up - agreed it was the only sensible thing to do (we were lucky that the rain veered away from campus the night before). But heels would have been a moot point for us with the grass field anyway...

All things in moderation, people. I like heels and wear them with some regularity. Wearing heels three or four times a week (I have a desk job) isn't going to cripple me for life. I buy well made shoes of a reasonable height and wear them enough to walk around comfortably in them.
The problem with teenage girls in heels is that they don't have enough experience to know their height limits or how to walk in them so they end up looking like someone struck my a sudden palsy.
My grandmother, however, has AWFUL feet from wearing heels 24-7. She was short but very stylish and would even wear heels to the grocery store. Again, all things in moderation.

Graduation is a special occasion, and girls feel much more dressed up in heels. Ask them- I bet most of them only wear heels that high very occasionally. Go look at the high school hallways a week or two before the graduation, and I'd bet you'll see a 20:1 ratio of flip flops to heels, of any height.

I agree, Valerie - I went to a high school graduation recently and all we talked about afterwards were the girls' shoes!

You crack me up!
I spent 30 yrs in the corporate world- much of it in airports with heels on! If I had to do over again, flats would be on. I'd save the heels for the Holiday Party so when I toppled over they'd think it was the punch and not that I'm a clod in heels!
Result: I probably pay the podiatrist's monthly rent now just to minimize the damage already done. Also encountered back problems which dr's associated with heels.
No heel ever higher than 3 inches-most were 2-1/2-and still caused damage. Listen to Valerie--tell your daughters, they'll just hate you for another reason (its temporary!). There's vanity and then there's stupidity.

Funny - I wrote a blog for our product website in January on this very subject: http://www.afx-online.com/news_research/how-can-you-walk-in-those-high-heels-%E2%89%A0-foot-pain/
Women won't stop wearing them, so why not 'workout' to wear them - we do that for other things like training for a 10K - so as long as you take care of your feet you might have some longevity in the end.

When the White House was evacuated and New Yorkers had to walk home on Sept. 11, the streets and sidewalks were littered with high heels whose wearers had abandoned them in the name of safety. Do we need a better reason to stop wearing them?
And does anyone remember the feminist in the 1970s who said that women's fashions were designed to make women more dependent on men and more accessible to rape? Her rhetoric was overblown, but I knew a woman in a very conservative law office, where the dress code specified tailored skirts, hose, and high heels for the women, who carried a change of clothes with her so she didn't have to walk to and from the bus stop in high heels and a tight skirt. Of course, that meant she had to take different buses--in a town with infrequent buses--than if she were a man to be sure she had enough time to change.

Call For Armed Force Agianst Chinese Communists Party by Wo Long
A country where eminent mountains stand under the clear sun and moon and shine with glorious beauty is
. It exists since the moment
when Heaven emerged. A country where the most of the people grow is China with the
longest history of righteousness, with the broadest scope of human love and
with many and many manifestations of wisdom.
Pangu seperated the Chinese Sky from Earth while Nv Wa made the Chinese people. When the Sky was in danger, Nv Wa repaired it. Cang Jie created the Chinese characters with disciplined beauty and profound meaning. Yellow Emperor wrote Nei Jing about theory of meridians and energy which miraclely saves people from death.
Three Emperors and Five Kings passed the Heavenly Mandates on,on the base of love and righteousness. They all promoted the
Middle Way and
acted impartially. All of them were chosen by the people. Together with worship
to the Heaven and mercy to the people, they began with a history of democracy.
Hundreds Philosophies were result of seeking the good and holy. They were called holy knowledge aimed to flourish
. Yi Jing
shows the world of the living and the world of the dead in order to benefit the
people by showing the gain, the loss and the chance to change, so that people would not be ashamed.
Dao De Jing tells that the highest kindness is like water and that the biggest
holy person does not need wisdom, because when the Heaven and Earth are both
impartial, small wisdom is only good for the stupid. Kong Zi´s Theory tells the
Chinese to be dilligent and to be good in order to keep peace and love for the
people. Sun Zi´s Art of War tells that the most genius way of winning the war
is to prevent the war by subduing the enemy without using weapons. Killing the
enemy is the worst way of the war. Meng Zi´s Theory tells that the people is
the first then the country and the king is the last. China
Hundreds Philosophies are all manifestations of kindness and justice. Because of them, Chinese civilization about love and mercy is spreading. People are living in the Heavenly Peace. This is in fact the root of and the origin of democracy.
Only Legists Theory of evil Shang Yang talked not about holy knowledge but about how to get power by slavering the people for the wellness of the ruler. Shang Yang was shortly in the favour of the ruler yet became for ever a loser. He died in the laughter without any sympathy. Qin Emperor Ying Zheng conquered other six countries by using of the Legists Theory, yet his victory was just short as passing clouds. That his country Qin shortly disappeared is not a coincidence. The Legists Theory about political reform brought fire to burn himself. His A Fang Palace is therefore burned onto ash because of preordained fate. Persons as Han Fei and Li Si thought themselves as clever by playing with power, laws and regulations. Yet they all deserved violent death. All villains in the history who lost the way of love and mercy, who played with evil games to manipulate the people and the world according to the Legists Theory died in violence and brought destroying to their family. Thus a evil law system can not guarantee the existent power. Only with Heavenly principles and social justice, peace can be realised.
Now there is an evil party called Chinese Communists Party which is born out Marx-Leninisms and formed by the Legists Theory and is in the jackets of Chinese holy ones. Laws and regulations are made to slave the people just like dealing with pigs and dogs. Invocations are used to mislead the people and make them demented. Heavenly conscience and social justice are no where to find. Teachers and ancestors are assaulted. There are no more nation's traditions to be hold on.
CCP talks big while shows bewitched by cajolery. CCP advocates big ambitions while acts eccentric and unreasonable. At the surface, it seems frank and good, while by deep study it looks like a monkey who wears a hat while its red buttocks is naked. Words like `evil` and `bewitched ` are not strong enough to describe its character.
CCP tells that the drive of development of history is class struggle, and that killing is the best way to realise class struggle. It is the same to say: Killing makes the society developed. What an absurd theory is that! The human society develops because of cultura and civilization! Killing and torture are bloody barbarity which make people constant in a state of anxiety. How can such persons have the mood to activate their minds? How can they promote culture and civilization?
CCP philosophy promotes that matter determines consciousness. If some one tells that you will get pigs minds because you eat pigs meat, do you believe? You will get cows minds because you eat beef, do you believe? If some one else says that you will get consciousness of bread because you eat bread, do you believe? You will get consciousness of water because you drink water, do you believe? Of course not. Human consciousness exist independent from matter. To a healthy human mind, all things on earth are like clouds in the sky. Poverty can only make a healthy human mind more determined. A healthy human spirit is as high as the blue sky. How can it be changed by the things on the earth.
Old Chinese Philosophies emphasize on the motionlessness in heart and on the alertness in action. When the heart keeps clean and dignified, a person can not be touched by things on earth. To follow CCP philosophy of matter determines consciousness, a person shall definitely absorb vulgarity and filthy at low grade. This person shall gradually be changed into animal at low grade. Today there are many animal like CCP leaders on the power. CCP philosophy puts the incidental before the fundamental, overturns the morel principles. It is really the fundamental reason why Chinese mindset is in disorder.
In the CCP oath, there is no single word about how to serve the country and the people. It is all about to serve the Party at the cost of all people. Normally human beings live in self sufficiency, be satisfied and happy. How dares CCP to coerce all people to sacrify themselves in order to fulfil CCP ideology. Nothing is worse for a human being than to sacrify everything he has. How dares CCP to deprive people of their self sufficiency and happiness? How dares CCP to coerce them to sacrify everything they have in order to fulfil its ideology? If it is not witched craft it can not be explained. It is the CCP´s evil spirit which is haunting
and our
Chinese. China
CCP goal of Communism is like a pie in the sky and is like touching the moon in the water. Even thousands of years of efforts shall still be in vain. Yet CCP has no sense of shame at all. It dares to intimidate all Chinese people to carry it out. It is as ridiculous as to go the heaven with a ladder, yet do not know where the ladder should be put and how long the ladder should be. Totally lost. It is to delude the people with Communism in order to trample on the blessings of the people.
In the history, a beautiful women Su Daji was possessed by Evil Fox Spirit when she became queen of King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty. She deluded King Zhou to do lots of inhuman deeds. Anybody who dared to speak it out was killed. She let ministers killed in a awful way. Bi Gan`s heart was taken out his body.
E Hou was made into dried meat. Today, CCP´s evil deeds are not less than that
of the Evil Fox Spirit. Killing happens everywhere because of nonsense. During
the idiot ten years of Cultural Revolution between 1966 till 1976, people who did
not agree were even not allowed to make suicide. They had to be tortured and to
be humiliated. CCP Evil Spirit possesses the whole and makes all Chinese miserable。 They `can
not die and neither live`. China
In the history, People like Mr. Zhou served the country and the people diligently and finally won the support. When King Cheng was too young to govern, Mr. Zhou did it in the name of him against lots of criticism. Mr. Zhou was not annoyed by the criticism, instead, he worked very hard to make the country's laws according to heavenly conscience . To save people's lives from death punishment. To make music regulations to soften the society. When King Cheng became adult he gave the power back. He won finally the understanding of the people. Yet CCP today is doing on the opposite. CCP names itself great while acts cruelly. Everybody who gives criticisms is punished with heavy crime as Anti Party, Anti China and Subverting the Nation´s Security. If they are not dead and they are suffered. Any political party and country can be discussed about freely, Why CCP not? CCP is in fact Evil Spirit as Su Daji in the history. This is the only reason why CCP rejects any criticism.
The CCP oath requires its members to be absolutely loyal and put the party benefit as the highest. It requires all members to sacrify everything they have voluntarily. CCP requires also every Chinese people to act like this, even if they are not party members. Anybody who is not loyal and is not willing to sacrify for the party is killed cruelly, like the wind wipes the dead leaves in the autumn. People who are not born in a red family are all targets for killing. Where is heavenly rights for a human being? How dares CCP to kidnap all Chinese people as slaves? Position of a person is not born. Birth is not in the hands of a person himself. Each person is born equal. Yet CCP ruins all this heavenly principles。 Besides the killing of the so called the Black Fives, CCP drives also people to enjoy killing each other. Whenever a killing happens, people are shouting because of enjoyment. Evil Spirit! No human being can act like this.
People can not live without eating food. Yet CCP keeps `better grass of socialism than harvest of capitalism`. Under this slogan people became blind and proud of having nothing. They began competing in poverty. They began to hate intensive cultivating and careful work. At the end, 40 million people died of starving.
People of virtue should be seen as teachers, because those people know how to educate. When the society loves to learn from virtuous persons, morality and civilization shall emerge. Yet CCP promotes ideas such as `the more knowledge, the more rebel` and sees teachers as `Old Smelly Nine`. CCP calls whose who can not read as big wiser and began with Learn From The Masses Movement. This is in fact to deceive the people and to confuse the people. It is in fact to ruin the virtuous teachings, to fool the people, to magnify the evil and the bad, to humiliate the good, to overturn the natural human relations, to confuse the morality. CCP acts exactly at the opposite of the natural principle about Existence and Nonexistence. Today, natural human relations are collapsed, social morality is undone. Our country
is no longer a country of
morality. Our Chinese people is no longer a people of gentleman ship. This is an other iron evidence of CCP Evil
Spirit is ruining China . China
The First thirty years of CCP government looked great yet it was a military government. Barbarity and cruelty brought the country backwards. Those military officers did not understand the natural way of the Heaven and Earth. Did not observe the subtleness of human hearts. Did not advocate the virtuous teachings. They did popularize the Theory of the Legists. They did override the people and humiliate the people. They did land into the trap of nonsense struggles between the Lefts and the Rights. They did cut their own feet. They did forbid freedom. They did isolate them selves and the country. They did make towering crimes. They did kill numerous innocents. They did change Chinese ground into a hell. They did changed Chinese blue sky into bloody red.
When the country was still in the shock of wars, suppressing the Anti´s has began. When the cultural wind was not in the air, knocking down the Rights has began. Great Leap Forwards turned out to be extremely cruel. Either culture and humanity was murdered. Everybody turned out be a god of death and every where turned out to be hell. Civilization is hurt. Kindness is lost. Morality is humiliated. Dignity is insulted. Couples became enemies. Brothers killed each other. Sons fought against fathers. Students hated the teachers. Ferocity grew. Barbarity became a trend. Both heavenly compassion and punishment were forgotten. No where was humanity but fairyhood. It could not be anything else but the demon´s reincarnation. It is true that Evil CCP Spirit is reincarnated specially to insult
and her
people. China
In the second thirty years of CCP government, people get enough warmth and food. Yet it is not due to CCP´s achievement. It is due to less restrictions of CCP. Yet this achievement of Chinese people is followed by heavy taxes in order to feed CCP ´s huge organisation which is parasitic on the people and the country. When healthy atmosphere is not mature, corruption becomes trendy. Misuse of the law and power becomes normal. When civilization is not stable, evil influence becomes in vogue. Lies and deceiving tricks are made to confuse the people. When industry is not rising, pollution goes first. Mountains and rivers are damaged. Eyes dare not to look at them. Roads and rails are disconnected for renewing. Yet no road or rail can exist more than ten years. Houses and buildings are torn down for new. Yet no building can exist more than 25 years at the average .
It is a joke. Our
has a
history of five thousand years long, yet none of our buildings can exist fifty
years long! It is really the result of CCP tricks to make false appearance to
be looked good. It is like taking firewood from the fire. It is like drink
poison to quench the thirst. Repeating building constantly is bothering the
normal life constantly. Only communists headed persons are in position while
good and talented persons are squeezed out. Tradition of recommending the good
and giving way to the able is abandoned. Brian washing the people with
communists ideology takes the place of educating the people. Eyes do not see
further in the distance. Minds do not think in long terms. Rat eyes indeed. All
these are evidence that CCP is reincarnated by rats spirit to harm China . China
After CCP seized the power, all CCP does is show the world how magnificent Communism is. All CCP activities are drawing a pizza which can not be eaten and touching the moon in water, without result。
Right after the establishment of the PRC, CCP cut all diplomatic relationship with western countries in order to draw a line with the so-called capitalists countries. Old Chinese wisdom says: `A kind person, I treat with kindness. An unkind person, I treat also with kindness. I will therefore win the kindness.` A wise statesman changes others from the heart. How is it possible to close all the diplomatic doors? This is fact one to show that Communisms is only burdensome.
During the Korean War, CCP army suffered with numerous injuries and death because CCP army was an isolated force into the war area, with a very long warfront and with inefficient supply. This war was avoidable. But in order to keep the Communists false name, several hundreds of thousand Chinese soldiers died and the nation's economy stagnated. This is fact two to show Communism is only burdensome.
During the so-called Great Lead Forwards, in order to affirm that Communism is better than capitalism, CCP launched industrial competition with
and with .
All Chinese are driven to make steel and iron without any mental and technical preparing.
At the end 40 million people died. CCP really does not understand that the way
to govern a country is to follow the natural way. CCP affirms in fact that
Communisms is backwards. This is fact 3 to show that Communism is only
burdensome. America
In order to be the number one of the Communists Block, CCP has supported small communists countries in Asia, Africa and
Latin America with lots of goods and money
while Chinese people themselves do not have enough to eat and to keep warm.
Such actions cost not only lives of Chinese people。 It costs also the name of . CCP
government is therefore labelled as supporter of terrorists. Therefore it has
brought isolation to China
in diplomacy. Such stupid actions have never occurred in the Chinese history. This
is fact 4 to show that Communism is only burdensome. China
Fighting is the origin of Communism while violence is the reality. Human lives are seen as worthless grass. It drives people into the trap of struggles about the Lefts and the Rights and therefore live under unknown fear. It aims on the narrow scoped Communists ideology and restricts free ideas from spreading. It has driven the people into foolishness, education into decline, science and technology into narrow stream. Communism has blocked the development of the society and is therefore thrown away as waste matter. Yet CCP defends it till death and makes it as holy. CCP government is in fact planning to keep the damage of the red monster continuing for ever. This shall finally bring dead end to everybody, including CCP it self. This is fact 5 to show that Communism is only burdensome.
In order to affirm that Communisms is right and great, CCP makes lies, creates false appearances, kills the reality. It is frenzied and has made towering crimes. Its benefits worship chokes wisdom and has caused foolish deeds. False name of Communism has left lots of jokes.
Communism has made our people weak, has harmed our mind, has killed our people, has damaged our country. It is not acceptable. There is zero tolerance! Therefore we stand up to wipe it out in order to have our happiness back.
I Wo Long, with fake name Wo Long, which means Hidden Dragon, am no talent who dares to talk about ordering the heaven and the earth. I wish all Chinese are hidden dragons. When one day we fly in the sky, our
Evil and misfortunate CCP is haunting our
and has made our people
dirty. Yet China
has a good fundament of thousands of years. When the Chinese understand the
reality, they will feel the natural way and know the misfortune. They will
drive the evil CCP into the wilderness. They will wipe the violence out from
their hearts. They will turn back to worship the Heaven and to love our people.
They will turn out to be merciful and affection able. `In a house where
kindness is worshiped, kindness shall grow . In a house where badness is
accumulated, badness shall take the place.` This is our tradition which is the
origin of Chinese happiness and civilization. How can such a worthy tradition
die because of evil and misfortune? China
I love virtuous teachings of old Chinese from a very young age and learn from them. I lean from them to be merciful, to love and to respect others . I learn to cultivate in justice and fairness. I see my mission as to make
´s beauty seen by following Heaven and people. I learn to observe carefully in
order to find the right moment. I learn to stay calm and reasonable when big
changes happen. I learn to be fearless to take responsibility and to dare to be
the first who stands up for justice. At this moment, I see that it is time to
clean up the CCP Evil. China
has suffered more than enough. Both people and Heaven are angry about
CCP´s crime. Dirty water wishes to have
cleanness. Real Chinese wish to have justice. That is why I write Manifesto
Cleaning Up the Chinese Communists Party. On behalf of Heaven, my writing
manifests justice, explained in details. It shall help people stay far away
from evil and crime. It shall help them to drive the Evil CCP Spirit away from
our living space. China
I know that morning wind lasts not long, either the raining storm. No vicious government lasts for hundred years. No monstrous disaster lasts for years. Yet today, CCP as real monster who has made towering crimes by harming our
, confusing our morality,
destroying our homes, does have lasted for 90 years! It sounds ridiculous.
People begin to doubt if Heavenly justice does exist. Yes, it does. Such an
evil CCP has no other way out than punishment. It is now the right moment to
throw it down. It seems huge, yet it is an empty sham. It seems violent, yet it
is over the limit thus is in declining. China
It has been long since
At this extremely special moment, only joint forces can contend with the cruel CCP. Thus, I pray Heaven shall allow me to be helped by the people. I pray that those who get a peach from me shall give melon fields in return and those who get a bottle of water from me shall give a flowing spring in return. I pray wherever this manifesto goes, people shall stand up for justice and that CCP spirit shall disappear. I pray that all Chinese shall be impartial and be righteous. I pray that we shall uphold the heavenly circulation and uphold our civilization.
I do not have to take such a big responsibility on my own shoulders. Yet it is the assignment of Heaven which I may not refuse. Nowadays Chinese people are mostly brain washed by CCP ideology. Many are focusing on benefits and personal desires. Few are really pure in the heart. Those who have my talents do not have my merciful love. If I refuse to carry out this mission,
shall fall in trap again.
Chinese shall suffer more. China
shall suffer from separating. I wish all Chinese shall become good and kind.
But at this moment, if nobody stands up
to take the big responsibility, good Chinese sons and daughters shall act like
a group of dragons without head. I am afraid that more people shall be killed.
This shall be the last thing that our ancestors and Heaven want to see. China
has suffered from such big disasters that nobody dares to add one single more.
Has suffered from such big humiliations that nobody dares to add one single
piece more. All of us shall seek a way to let our people enjoy the normal life
and happiness. We shall all try to find a way to built our China into a big family without
walls and forbidden cities. Those who misuse this chance to humiliate our
country , take our land and goods or kill our people shall be challenged with a
war of 2 billion Chinese worldwide. China
I swear: I have no benefit above our people, I have no power above our people. I shall keep righteous and follow the middle way. I shall resign when my mission is done. What I am doing now is not for to be account as scores to stay in power. If our people are safe I will be satisfied. Freedom and equality are for all Chinese. I am only aimed to create the possibility for our people to rebuilt Chinese civilization. If I deviate from this promise, Heaven and Earth may abandon me and everybody may kill me. If I keep this promise, please recommend me and help me. By doing this you are helping in fact yourself.
Peace shall only be realised when the society follows heavenly conscience. Today in
Civil society with transparency in government information is the tendency of the world´s development. Evil CCP shall not any longer cover or overturn the truth. People shall not any longer be cheated. Thus a small incidence can trigger into a big change. Great catastrophe can happen at any moment if injustice is done. I am afraid that not only CCP shall go death but also Chinese country shall also be burned. I am afraid that jade shall be damaged together with stones. If this happens, it is all CCP officials´ guilty. CCP officials, how short minded you are. Give benefits back to the people. Now. Stop with making crimes against the people. Give up the power. There is then possibility to save your family, to enjoy peaceful life and to keep your goods.
He who is on power, you must shout in the voice of justice. If not, the moment when your voice is heard, is the moment when you die. People listen only to the voice of justice. We refuse to listen to the voice of injustice. Sounds of weapon shall be heard from in front of you and also from behind you.
Evil CCP Spirit which is haunting
and which has made towering crimes against Chinese deserves punishment beyond
the redemption. Yet Heaven has a virtue which is called compassion. Thinking about that CCP persons are all
deluded by Marxists and Maoists evil spirits,
Heaven gives me assignment to explain all arguments in details in order
to educate those possessed ones. Heaven gives me assignment to show mercy in
order to help the stubborn. Heaven does
want to save the Heavenly circulation in order to save thousands upon thousands
of people from revenging. Thus I wish all CCP persons shall feel the justice
and be touched in their heart whenever they hear this manifesto. I wish that
they shall put crime and violence aside. I wish that love and compassion shall
grow in their heart. Only by this they can pass the punishment. If so, only so,
a demon can become fairy, a monster can become a human. If they keep on making
crimes and doing evil, they shall be punished with heavenly beating and
thunderous splitting. Their family and children shall also be punished. China
I am determined to deliver our
and our people from danger caused by CCP Evil Spirit. I shall wipe the evil
deeds of CCP away with snow on the China .
I shall wash the evil character of evil CCP away with water in the Kun
Lun Mountain .
Thus I, in accordance with the Heavenly Conscience and the big compassion, release
here ten decrees for general pardon. If CCP persons listen to my decrees and
stop with doing evil, put the power aside, dismiss the evil Chinese Communists
Party, seal up the storerooms for safekeeping, wait for the future leader with
virtue, shall be delivered from punishment. If not, they shall be sure punished
without mercy. East Sea
I am determined to deliver our
One, When CCP persons hear or read this manifesto, they begin with thinking deeply about their crimes and are touched by compassion and understand my arguments and become kind and benevolent, all crimes they have made are forgiven. If they keep on arguing with nonsense CCP evil ideology or with some other evil words to cover the truth or to slander the manifesto. They shall be punished.
Two, When CCP persons hear or read this manifesto, they take initiative to make a confess about their crimes, work actively together with justice and help spreading this manifesto, they shall be delivered from punishment. If they take advantage of social change and declare themselves head of sub government and accumulate private armed force, they shall be punished.
Three, When CCP persons hear or read this manifesto, they take initiative to confess their crimes, allow and protect the people to express freely. If they work actively to save our people's life and quit their jobs by CCP government at triggered moments. They shall be delivered from punishment. If they keep on carrying the CCP orders out to imprison our people, they shall be punished.
Four, When CCP persons hear or read this manifesto, give the army back to the country and defend enemy outside
and serve for the Chinese people. If they refuse to listen to CCP orders but
listen to the future leader with great virtue, they shall be delivered from
punishment. If the CCP army persons listen to CCP orders to interfere freedom
of the people or help depress the people, they shall be punished. China
Five, when this manifesto is widely heard or read, people shall take actions. They shall stand up to protest. If CCP policemen quit their jobs or keep the protests actions free, they shall be delivered from their crimes in the past. If they listen to CCP orders to imprison the activists or humiliate them, they shall be punished.
Six, When those CCP employed writers and public speakers hear or read this manifesto and change their mind and seek purity in their hearts and stop with their bad deeds, they shall be delivered from their evil deeds in the past. If they keep on helping CCP with evil propaganda to confuse the people, they shall be punished.
Seven, When hear or read this manifesto, CCP persons and those CCP hand friends who make unjustified benefits take initiative to donate the money which belongs to our people, and transfer those money back to China which is already transferred to foreign counties and contribute to the national treasure, they shall be delivered from their crimes in the past and are allowed to keep their salary part or justified part. If they take advantage of the social change and take money which does not belong to them away and hide in other places, they shall be punished.
Eight, When hear or read this manifesto, CCP persons help with protecting of national goods and people´s private goods and property, they shall be delivered from their crimes in the past. If not, they shall be punished.
Nine, When hear and read this manifesto, CCP persons stop with destroying forests and houses, stop with disconnecting the roads, rails, stop with polluting rivers, change their attitude to the workers, respect the rights of the workers, they shall be delivered from their crimes in the past. If not, they shall be punished.
Ten, when hear or read this manifesto, CCP top officials take actions to dismiss evil Chinese Communists Party, take distance from the CCP while stay in position for the country and wait and help peaceful transition of new government, they shall be delivered from their crime in the past. If they keep on fighting against this manifesto and keep on holding the evil CCP ideology and block social development to democracy, they shall be punished.
In this ten decrees above, `CCP persons` means beside CCP members also persons who are employed by CCP. From the ones who shall be delivered from their crimes, a selection shall be made on the base of good deeds and shall be prized. From who shall be punished, a selection shall be made on the base of bad deeds and shall be punished even more heavier. When CCP persons take money from Chinese people, they have benefited their family and children. That is why their family and children shall also be punished. Even if they escape to the end of the heaven they shall be followed just on the manner when the NAZI criminals are followed. Thus I sugest that CCP persons need to think and rethink about if their money is clean and if their heart is righteous. I do hope that they understand what is going on at this moment. I do hope that they put evil deeds and thoughts aside and join in the people. I do hope that they have good reason not to agree with me.
We, Chinese descendents, are operating upon our country for upholding righteousness and civilization. Our purpose is to seek peace for 2 billion Chinese worldwide. If 2 billion Chinese on the earth do not live in peace, peace is only an illusion for the rest of the world.
Countries that will help us to send back Communist fugitive criminals with the money they have taken, we will welcome as friends.
Countries who will help in hiding the criminals and the money they have taken, will be considered as evil as the communists.
Countries who during this operation either invade our country or kill our citizens can expect a war with 2 billion Chinese world wide.
Chinese descendents are bearing thousands of years civilization, is it possible that we stoop our country because of Evil CCP´s haunting? Chinese children and grand children are holding virtue and morality, is it possible that we kill our own people because of Evil CCP ´s violence? No. of course not. We need to love our people, We need to uphold our nation. We need to uphold our civilization. We need to strengthen our country. We need to be tolerant. We need to stand with dignity. We need let our love fill the universe.
I know that CCP persons are greedy and are addicted to power and that they hold no as yes. I know that they shall not be willing to put evil deeds aside. In order to avoid exchange violence with violence, to avoid damaging jade together with stones, I once again point out that I wish the CCP persons shall understand our righteous cause and that they shall be awaken and that they shall feel our love and compassion, that they shall listen to my decrees and put crimes down. Only so, CCP persons can keep living further, can keep their family whole, can hold their justified money and can enjoy freedom. This shall also be great happiness for our country besides be great happiness of getting new life of CCP persons. Think about it. Rethink about it.
Now we swear that we wish all Chinese shall work together to participate in the rebuilding of our country, reviving our civilization and our morality, flourishing love and winning in peace for Chinese and non Chinese.
To eliminate the evil CCP,we announce righteousness on behalf of Heaven. We order Chinese Communists Party be dismissed on the 6th meeting of the 17th congress. From the moment when this meeting is completed which it is planned on the 31st of October 2011, we announce that all CCP activities from then on as illegal and shall be put in lawsuits in the future. Either is the CCP membership. Those members who confess their guilty and their crimes in the past shall be delivered from punishment. We order all property in ownership of our country and that the CCP members may not make use of it. CCP members who work together for a transitional government shall be free from punishment. If not, we shall organise the army of justice and make decisive battles with the CCP Evil. Where righteousness is heard, the CCP army shall become our army of justice. When every body bear righteousness, every body shall be member of our army of justice. We shall then determine the victory. We bear Heaven´s order and shall begin with organising from the 21st of May 2012 national actions to throw the evil and violent CCP government down. We foresee that CCP Evil Spirit disappear in no time and that justice and love shall come back to the Chinese society. CCP persons who keep on resisting shall have their body smashed into pieces.
We have explained everything carefully in details. We reserve tolerance for CCP persons and we wait to see that they become human and join in our national actions. If some CCP persons resist our actions of justice, and if before the 31st of October 2013 they have not dismissed the evil party CCP and have not stopped with evil activities, we shall punish the nine members of the politburo of central committee with extreme death penalty. Children of them shall also be punished with life long imprisonment. Without general pardon, they shall never be free again.
Bearing Heavenly justice, I have wrote this manifesto. I have no selfish mind and it is seen by Heaven and Earth. I have done this for our
and our Chinese people and it is observed by the sun and the moon. This
manifesto shall function as rule. Everybody need to believe in, without
ignorance! China

Flash Scorecard

Europeans remain unwilling to renew their thinking on nuclear deterrence, despite growing strategic instability. Their stated goal of "strategic autonomy" will remain an empty phrase until they engage seriously on this matter.
This intellectual under-investment looks set to continue despite: a revived debate "German bomb" debate; a new Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons; and the collapse of the INF treaty.
Attitudes to nuclear deterrence differ radically from country to country – something which any new engagement on the nuclear dimension will have to contend with. And, while many governments and their voting publics are aligned in attitudes, in some crucial players like Germany the government and public are at loggerheads.
No European initiative to declare strategic nuclear autonomy is yet practicable but a strategy to hedge for future uncertainties is available.
As a first step, the UK and France should convert the idea of a European deterrent from mere notion into credible offer, by thickening their bilateral nuclear cooperation and sending growing signals that indicate their readiness to protect others.

The pitter-patter of raindrops and wind blew through Rockwood Middle School last Wednesday.
Nobody left the doors open, and it wasn't a real storm, but the 30-plus students' snapping fingers, hands and pounding feet were convincing.
The school's glee club, which was formed this fall, isn't inspired by the hit TV show "Glee," and members say there isn't nearly the teenage angst that riddles the lives of the young people portrayed on the show.
The group is diverse and, from the sound of their combined voices, skilled.

Gus Lobel is one of the most formidable baseball talent scouts around, however his age starts to fail him in his career as his eyesight deteriorates and he is unable to focus properly on the Atlanta Braves games he goes to watch. Worried about his health and career, his long-time boss and good friend enlists Lobel's daughter to accompany her father on what is to be the last talent scouting trip of his career. Mickey Lobel has never had a strong relationship with her father, since he was unable to look after her alone following the death of her mother. Nonetheless, she compromises her high status lawyer job and agrees to keep an eye on Gus, despite his protests. On the way, Mickey meets Gus's friend Johnny Flanagan; a former baseball player and aspiring talent scout who looks up to Gus and takes an interest in the beautiful Mickey. Much is to be discovered for everyone on this journey as it becomes less about baseball and more about truth, love and family.

French Stripes
We pinned out a piece of each of our new linen fabrics and tested the new screen. I'm not ashamed to say that I was very excited after I lifted up the screen to reveal the above colourways.
We will be printing yardage of these babies on Monday and then listing the fabric for sale on the website. I see cushions and lampshades!
Speaking of lampshades, I apologise that I am taking so long to list lampshades but I don't like to promote products unless I am sure that we can produce them. The lampshade maker whose services I was using is unable to deal with wholesale quantities. Thus, we will be trying out another manufacturer next week. I will keep you posted.

Writing Communities
|photo credit: Cappucino
I've just returned home from two meetings: one with my writing group buddies and another with a writing friend from a previous writing group. Both meetings filled me with ideas and inspiration. It is wonderful to sit and have cups of tea or coffee with those who talk the same language, who know about the ins and outs, joys and hardships of writing, sending out work, of acceptance and rejection. And today the talk proved as good as always, and with the specific concerns and new tidbits of information: which tv programs are worth tuning into, new websites and competition deadlines, agent updates, an adaptation of a bestseller to a film, applications for new jobs, finding time to write when you have children. One friend has recently started to use Twitter and is loving the connections it brings. Another is brushing up a synopsis for her third novel. I sit in wonder at both the idea of a third novel and at putting oneself out there on Twitter! My other friend is wrestling with revision of her novel while also editing work for an anthology. All in all I felt inspired by their work and continuing commitment to writing.
I don't find it easy to stay indoors on a day like today, one which falls in a line of days where the mist and fog and low-hanging cloud creates a damp and dim autumn. Indoors one has to switch on lights that normally only go on at dark. I feel moody and itching to get out when I'm in the house in day time with lights on. It's as if something doesn't quite fit. And today I was fortunate to have meetings with colleagues I also call my friends. A chance to meet in kitchens and cafes. Friendships that have formed over a decade or more of tussle with words and editing, characters and titles and all the technical elements of the prose and poetry we write. Today my offering was a stack of poems, a shortlist of pieces I dug out to share at a reading I will be doing next week. It was fruitful to sift through pieces and talk them over, to talk about why or why not I might want to structure a reading to include newly-written work. As always, the discussion proved to be part of the process and I came home feeling supported and guided by my fellow writers.
My writing community is invaluable, so much so that at one point in my life it was the only thing keeping me resident in the geographical location I found myself in. The community I have built around me has become solid and full. In pairs, threes, quads and larger groups, we have allowed for a space, for each other to share work and to watch it change and shapeshift into the finished pieces we then send out into the world. We allow for connection and through connection, the building of a commonly-held and much needed community.
