Sorry No Review About Hotel Ashirwad Katra Vaishnodevi

Shynola are back! The creative collective have made a strong entrance to 2016, creating the music video for Tiesto's new track "The Right Song" which the Dutch DJ and producer made with fellow EDM heavyweight Oliver Heldens and singer Natalie LaRose.
The club collaboration has been given a colorful and hypnagogic treatment from the London-based directorial trio. Recently, Shynola's Jason Groves, Chris Harding and Richard 'Kenny' Kenworthy directed mind-bending music videos for Raleigh Ritchie and Hot Chip. For Tiesto, their work again incorporates some surreal elements; from a vacuum cleaner that knows how to dine and dance, to a toilet paper sequence that could revival the rose petal scene from American Beauty.
But we don't want to give too much away! Do the right thing and watch "The Right Song" above now.

What typically happens is you write a few emails, set up your landing page, and tell yourself that you'll be back in a few days to keep writing. Will you, though?
Probably not.
Where Most Marketers Stop
Most people set up between 4 to 7 autoresponder messages and they call it good.
Those autoresponders might have a point – they might have a theme – but oftentimes… They don't. They don't let your prospects explore you or your business. They don't let your leads 'discover' your offers. They simply direct them throughout the site a little bit and then let them go on their way.
Now, I've been working online for 11 years now. Admittedly, it took me almost 6 of those years to grasp this concept. As the saying goes, "Hindsight is 20/20." If I only knew then what I know now my path might not have been nearly as rocky.
2 Months, On Average
You see, Scriptly has 72 days worth of email already loaded up for prospects. Curately has 46 days. TimeSlots has 60 days. Depending on where someone comes into our process, we don't need to think about what they're receiving from us for almost 2 months.
What they work through is a structured process, filled with lead magnets, blog content, sales pages, automated webinars; and everything in between.
It's a brilliant process and it assumes nothing. Sometimes, new members will join on Day 1. Other times, they'll join on Day 48. More often than not though, they'll join AFTER Day 7. That means, if we stopped at 6 days of email – we'd be out a ton of sales!
These are just the numbers we see for our SAAS platforms.
Your Offers
Your offers might be different. You might get Day 0 conversions from paid traffic. You might see Day 60 conversions. Or, you might not see conversions at all.
The point of building an email list is to leverage your ad spend in a way that grows your business over the long term. You're not dumping money into direct-link ads without building an asset… That asset being your email list.
When you want to launch something new? Write a few emails and click send.
When you need to get some ideas about your next offer? Write a few emails and click send.
Realistically, your email autoresponder should be doing those things for you. That's what today's video is all about :0)
What To Do Next
If you'd like help writing your email copy, make sure you check out Scriptly's Autoresponder Engine. There are 28+ complete autoresponder campaigns already loaded up for you there, and you can start for free!

Hello all,
I've just been looking online with articles relating to Bettas and I have came across the concept of putting a 'Betta Bed' somewhere near the top of the tank for the Betta to rest on? Can anyone please inform me with the pros & cons of Betta Beds? Or different types of Betta Beds etc i.e natural or artificial ones? And where to locate them?
Many thanks,

HP O those of us who still retain an irreconcilable animus against war, it has been a bitter experience to see the unanimity with which the American intellectuals have thrown their support to the use of war-technique in the crisis in which America found herself. Socialists, college professors, publicists, new-republicans, practitioners of literature, have vied with each other in confirming with their intellectual faith the collapse of neutrality and the riveting of the war-mind on a hundred million more of the world's people. And the intellectuals are not content with confirming our belligerent gesture. They are now complacently asserting that it was they who effectively willed it, against the hesitation and dim perceptions of the American democratic masses. A war made deliberately by the intellectuals! A calm moral verdict, arrived at after a penetrating study of inexorable facts! Sluggish masses, too remote from the world-conflict to be stirred, too lacking in intellect to perceive their danger! An alert intellectual class, saving the people in spite of themselves, biding their time with Fabian strategy until the nation could be moved into war without serious resist-4 WHEN NEUTRALI'
ancc! An intellectual class, gently guiding a nation through sheer force of ideas into what the other nations entered only through predatory craft or popular hysteria or militarist madness! A war free from any taint of self-seeking, a war that will secure the triumph of democracy and internationalize the world! This is the picture which the more self-conscious intellectuals have formed of themselves, and which they are slowly impressing upon a population which is being led no man knows whither by an indubitably intellcctualizcd President. And they are right, in that the war certainly did not spring from either the ideals or the prejudices, from the national ambitions or hysterias, of the American people, however acquiescent the masses prove to be, and however clearly the intellectuals prove their putative intuition.
np HOSE intellectuals who A have felt themselves totally out of sympathy with this drag toward war will seek some explanation for this joyful leadership. They will want to understand this willingness of the American intellect to open the sluices and flood us with the sewage of the war spirit. We cannot forget the virtuous horror and stupefaction which filled our college professors when they read
y WAS IN FLOWER
the famous manifesto of their ninety-three German colleagues in defence of their war. To the American academic mind of 1914 defence of war was inconceivable. From Bernhardi it recoiled as from a blasphemy, little dreaming that two years later would find it creating its own cleanly reasons for imposing military service on the country and for talking of the rough rude currents of health and regeneration that war would send through the American body politic. They would have thought anyone mad who talked of shipping American men by the hundreds of thousands—conscripts—to die on the fields of France. Such a spiritual change seems catastrophic when we shoot our minds back to those days when neutrality was a proud thing. But the intellectual progress has been so gradual that the country retains little sense of the irony. The war sentiment, begun so gradually but so perseveringly by the preparedness advocates who came from the ranks of big business, caught hold of one after another of the intellectual groups. With the aid of Roosevelt, the murmurs became a monotonous chant, and finally a chorus so mighty that to be out of it was at first to be disreputable and finally almost obscene. And slowly a strident rant was worked up against Germany which compared very creditably with the
German fulminations against the greedy power of England. The nerve of the war-feeling centered, of course, in the richer and older classes of the Atlantic seaboard, and was keenest where there were French or English business and particularly social connections. The sentiment then spread over the country as a class-phenomenon, touching everywhere those upper-class elements in each section who identified themselves with this Eastern ruling group. It must never be forgotten that in every community it was the least liberal and least democratic elements among whom the preparedness and later the war sentiment was found. The farmers were apathetic, the smalt business men and working-men are still apathetic towards the war. The election was a vote of confidence of these latter classes in a President who would keep the faith of neutrality. The intellectuals, in other words, have identified themselves with the least democratic forces in American life. They have assumed the leadership for war of those very classes whom the American democracy has been immemori-ally fighting. Only in a world where irony was dead could an intellectual class enter war at the head of such illiberal cohorts in the avowed cause of world-lib-eralism and world-democracy. No one is left to point out the undemocratic nature of this war-liberalism. In a time of faith, skepticism is the most intolerable of all insults.
rvUR intellectual class might ^^ have been occupied, during the last two years of war, in studying and clarifying the ideals and aspirations of the American democracy, in discovering a true Americanism which would not have been merely nebulous but might have federated the different ethnic groups and traditions. They might have spent the time in endeavoring to clear the public mind of the cant of war, to get rid of old mystical notions that clog our thinking. We might have used the time for a great wave of education, for setting our house in spiritual order. We could at least have set the problem before ourselves. If our intellectuals were going to lead the administration, they might conceivably, have tried to find some way of securing peace by making neutrality effective. They might have turned their intellectual energy not to the problem of jockeying the nation into war, but to the problem of using our vast neutral power to attain democratic ends for the rest of the world and ourselves without the use of the malevolent technique of war. They might have failed. The point is that they scarcely tried. The time was spent not in clarification and education, but in a mulling over of nebulous ideals of democracy and liberalism and civilization which had never meant anything fruitful to those ruling classes who now so glibly used them, and in giving free rein to the elementary instinct of self-defence. The whole era has been spiritually wasted. The outstanding feature has been not its Americanism but its intense colonialism. The offence of our intellectuals was not so much that they were colonial— for what could we expect of a nation composed of so many national elements?—but that it was so one-sidedly and partisanly colonial. The official, reputable expression of the intellectual class has been that of the English colonial. Certain portions of it have been even more loyalist than the King, more British even than Australia. Other colonial attitudes have been vulgar. The colonialism of the other American stocks was denied a hearing from the start. America might have been made a meeting-ground for the different national attitudes. An intellectual class, cultured colonists of the different European nations, might have threshed out the issues here as they could not be threshed out in Europe. Instead of this, the English colonials in university and press took command at the start, and we became an intellectual
Hungary where thought was subject to an effective process of Magyarization. The reputable opinion of the American intellectuals became more and more either what could be read pleasantly in London, or what was written in an earnest effort to put Englishmen straight on their war-aims and war-technique. This Magyarization of thought produced as a counter-reaction a peculiarly offensive and inept German apologetic, and the two partisans divided the field between them. The great masses, the other ethnic groups, were inarticulate. American public opinion was almost as little prepared for war in 1917 as it was in 1914.
/"T~S HE sterile results of such an intellectual policy are inevitable. During the war the American intellectual class has produced almost nothing in the way of original and illuminating interpretation. Veblen's "Imperial Germany;" Patten's "Culture and War," and addresses; Dewey's "German Philosophy and Politics;" a chapter or two in Weyl's "American World Policies ;"*—is there much else of creative value in the intellectual repercussion of the war? It is true that the shock of war put the American intellectual to an unusual strain. He had to sit idle and think as spectator, not as actor.
S«c page 15
There was no government to which he could docilely and loyally tender his mind as did the Oxford professors to justify England in her own eyes. The American's training was such as to make the fact of war almost incredible. Both in his reading of history and in his lack of economic perspective he was badly prepared for it. He had to explain to himself something which was too colossal for the modern mind, which outran any language or terms which we had to interpret it in. He had to expand his sympathies to the breaking-point, while pulling the past and present into some sort of interpretative order. The intellectuals in the fighting countries had only to rationalize and justify what their country was already doing. Their task was easy. A neutral, however, had really to search out the truth. Perhaps perspective was too much to ask of any mind. Certainly the older colonials among our college professors let their prejudices at once dictate their thought. They have been comfortable ever since. The war has taught them nothing and will teach them nothing. And they have had the satisfaction, under the rigor of events, of seeing prejudice submerge the intellects of their younger colleagues. And they have lived to see almost their entire class, pacifists and democrats too, join them as apologists for the "gigantic irrelevance" of war.
J E have had to watch, ** therefore, in this country the same process which so shocked us abroad,—the coalescence of the intellectual classes in support of the military programme. In this country, indeed, the socialist intellectuals did not even have the grace of their German brothers and wait for the declaration of war before they broke for cover. And when they declared for war they showed how thin was the intellectual veneer of their socialism. For they called us in terms that might have emanated from any bourgeois journal to defend democracy and civilization, just as if it was not exactly against those very bourgeois democracies and capitalist civilizations that socialists had been fighting for decades. But so subtle is the spiritual chemistry of the "inside" that all this intellectual cohesion— herd-instinct become herd-intellect—which seemed abroad so hysterical and so servile, comes to us here in highly rational terms. We go to war to save the world from subjugation 1 But the German intellectuals went to war to save their culture from bar-barization! And the French went to war to save their beautiful France! And the English to save international honor! And
Russia, most altruistic and self-sacrificing of all, to save a small State from destruction! Whence is our miraculous intuition of our moral spotlcssness? Whence our confidence that history will not unravel huge economic and imperialist forces upon which our rationalizations float like bubbles? The Jew often marvels that his race alone should have been chosen as the true people of the cosmic God. Are not our intellectuals equally fatuous when they tell us that our war of all wars is stainless and thrillingly achieving for good?
A N intellectual class that was wholly rational would have called insistently for peace and not for war. For months the crying need has been for a negotiated peace, in order to avoid the ruin of a deadlock. Would not the same amount of resolute statesmanship thrown into intervention have secured a peace that would have been a subjugation for neither side? Was the terrific bargaining power of a great neutral ever really used? Our war followed, as all wars follow, a monstrous failure of diplomacy. Shamcfacedness should now be our intellectuals' attitude, because the American play for peace was made so little more than a polite play. The intellectuals have still to explain why, willing as they now are to use force to continue the war to absolute exhaustion, they were not willing to use force to coerce the world to a speedy peace.
'T~*HEIR forward vision is no A more convincing than their past rationality. We go to war now to internationalize the world. But surely their League to Enforce Peace is only a palpable apocalyptic myth, like the syndicalists' myth of the "general strike." It is not a rational programme so much as a glowing symbol for the purpose of focusing belief, of setting enthusiasm on fire for international order. As far as it docs this it has pragmatic value, but as far as it provides a certain radiant mirage of idealism for this war and for a world-order founded on mutual fear, it is dangerous and obnoxious. Idealism should be kept for what is ideal. It is depressing to think that the prospect of a world so strong that none dare challenge it should be the immediate ideal of the American intellectual. If the League is only a makeshift, a coalition into which we enter to restore order, then it is only a description of existing fact, and the idea should be treated as such. But if it is an actually prospective outcome of the settlement, the keystone of American policy, it is neither realizable nor desirable. For the programme of such a League contains no provision for dynamic national growth or for international economic justice. In a world which requires recognition of economic internationalism far more than of political internationalism, an idea is reactionary which proposes to petrify and federate the nations as political and economic units. Such a scheme for international order is a dubious justification for American policy. And if American policy had been sincere in its belief that our participation would achieve international beatitude, would we not have made our entrance into the war conditional upon a solemn general agreement to respcct in the final settlement these principles of international order? Could we have afforded, if our war was to end war by the establishment of a league of honor, to risk the defeat of our vision and our betraval in the set-tlement? Yet we are in the war, and no such solemn agreement was made, nor has it even been suggested.
'"T"* HE case of the intellectuals A seems, 'therefore, only very speciously rational. They could have used their energy to force a just peace or at least to devise other means than war for carrying through American policy. They could have used their intellectual energy to ensure that our participation in the war
meant the international order which they wish. Intellect was not so used. It was used to lead an apathetic nation into an irresponsible war, without guarantees from those belligerents whose cause we were saving. The American intellectual, therefore, has been rational neither in his hindsight nor his foresight. To explain him we must look beneath the intellectual reasons to the emotional disposition. It is not so much what they thought as how they felt that explains our intellectual class. Allowing for colonial sympathy, there was still the personal shock in a world-war which outraged all our preconceived notions of the way the world was tending. It reduced to rubbish most of the humanitarian internationalism and democratic nationalism which had been the emotional thread of our intellectuals' life. We had suddenly to make a new orientation. There were mental conflicts. Our latent colonialism strove with our longing for American unity. Our desire for peace strove with our desire for national responsibility in the world. That first lofty and remote and not altogether unsound feeling of our spiritual iso- * lation from the conflict could not last. There was the itch to be in the great experience which the rest of the world was having. Numbers of intelligent people who had never been stirred by
the horrors of capitalistic peace at home were shaken out of their slumber by the horrors of war in Belgium. Never having felt responsibility for labor wars and oppressed masses and excluded races at home, they had a large fund of idle emotional capital to invest in the oppressed nationalities and ravaged villages of Europe. Hearts that had felt only ugly contempt for democratic strivings at home beat in tune with the struggle for freedom abroad. All this was natural, but it tended to over-emphasize our responsibility. And it threw our thinking out of gear. The task of making our own country dc-tailedly fit for peace was abandoned in favor of a feverish concern for the management of the war, advice to the fighting governments on all matters, military, social and political, and a gradual working up of the conviction that we were ordained as a nation to lead all erring brothers towards the light of liberty and democracy. The failure of the American intellectual class to erect a creative attitude toward the war can be explained by these sterile mental conflicts which the shock to our ideals sent raging through us.
jV/T ENTAL conflicts end either in a new and higher synthesis or adjustment, or else in a reversion to more primitive ideas
which have been outgrown but to which we drop when jolted out of our attained position. The war caused in America a recrudescence of nebulous ideals which a younger generation was fast outgrowing because it had passed the wistful stage and was discovering concrete ways of getting them incarnated in actual institutions. The shock of the war threw us back from this pragmatic work into an emotional bath of these old ideals. There was even a somewhat rarefied revival of our primitive Yankee boastfulness, the reversion of senility to that republican childhood when we expected the whole world to copy our republican institutions. We amusingly ignored the fact that it was just that Imperial German regime, to whom we are to teach the art of self-government, which our own Federal structure, with its executive irresponsible in foreign policy and with its absence of parliamentary control, most resembles. And we are missing the exquisite irony of the unaffected homage paid by the American democratic intellectuals to the last and most detested of Britain's tory premiers as the representative of ' a "liberal" ally, as well as the irony of the selection of the best hated of America's bourbon "old guard" as the missionary of American democracy to Russia.
'~pHE intellectual state that A could produce such things is one where reversion has taken place to more primitive ways of thinking. Simple syllogisms are substituted for analysis, things arc known by their labels, our heart's desire dictates what we shall see. The American intellectual class, having failed to make the higher syntheses, regresses to ideas that can issue in quick, simplified action. Thought becomes an easy rationalization of what is actually going on or what is to happen inevitably tomorrow. It is true that certain groups did rationalize their colonialism and attach the doctrine of the inviolability of British sea-power to the doctrine of a League of Peace. But this agile resolution of the mental conflict did not become a higher synthesis, to be creatively developed. It gradually merged into a justification for our going to war. It petrified into a dogma to be propagated. Criticism flagged and emotional propaganda began. Most of the socialists, the college professors and the practitioners of literature, however, have not even reached this high-water mark of synthesis. Their mental conflicts have been resolved much more simply. War in the interests of democracy! This was almost the sum of their philosophy. The primitive idea to which they regressed became almost insensibly translated into a craving for action. War was seen as the crowning relief of their indecision. At last action, irresponsibility, the end of anxious and torturing attempts to reconcile peace-ideals with the drag of the world towards Hell. An end to the pain of trying to adjust the facts to what they ought to be! Let us consecrate the facts as ideal! Let us join the greased slide towards war! The momentum increased. Hesitations, ironies, consciences, considerations,—all were drowned in the elemental blare of doing something aggressive, colossal. The new-found Sabbath "peace-fulness of being at war"! The thankfulness with which so many intellectuals lay down and floated with the current betrays the hesitation and suspense through which they had been. The American university is a brisk and happy place these days. Simple, unquestioning action has superseded the knots of thought. The thinker dances with reality.
«/TTH how many of the ac-" ceptors of war has it been mostly a dread of intellectual suspense? It is a mistake to suppose that intellectuality • necessarily makes for suspended judgments. The intellect craves certitude. It takes effort to keep it supple and pliable. In a time of danger and disaster we jump desperately for some dogma to cling to. The time comes, if we try to hold out, when our nerves are sick with fatigue, and we seize in a great healing wave of release some doctrine that can be immediately translated into action. Neutrality meant suspense, and so it became the object of loathing to frayed nerves. The vital myth of the League of Peace provides a dogma to jump to. With war the world becomes motor again and speculation is brushed aside like cobwebs. The blessed emotion of self-defence intervenes too, which focused millions in Europe. A few keep up a critical pose after war is begun, but since they usually advise action which is in one-to-one correspondence with what the mass is already doing, their criticism is little more than a rationalization of the common emotional drive.
HE results of war on the in-A tellectual class are already apparent. Their thought becomes little more than a description and justification of what is going on. They turn upon any rash one who continues idly to speculate. Once the war is on, the conviction spreads that individual thought is helpless, that the only way one can count is as a cog in the great wheel. There is no good holding back. We are told to dry our unnoticed and ineffective tears and plunge into the great work. Not only is everyone forced into line, but the new certitude becomes idealized. It is a noble realism which opposes itself to futile obstruction and the cowardly refusal to face facts. This realistic boast is so loud and sonorous that one wonders whether realism is always a stern and intelligent grappling with realities. May it not be sometimes a mere surrender to the actual, an abdication of the ideal through a sheer fatigue from intellectual suspense? The pacifist is roundly scolded for refusing to face the facts, and for retiring into his own world of sentimental desire. But is the realist who refuses to challenge or criticise facts, entitled to any more credit than that which comes from following the line of least resistance? The realist thinks he at least can control events by linking himself to the forces that are moving. Perhaps he can. But if it is a question of controlling war, it is difficult to see how the child on the back of a mad elephant is to be any more effective in stopping the beast than is the child who tries to stop him from the ground. The ex-humanitarian, turned realist, sneers at the snobbish neutrality, colossal conceit, crooked thinking, dazed sensibilities, of those who are still unable to find any balm of consolation for this war. We manufacture consolations here in America while there are probably not a dozen men fighting in Europe who did not long ago give up every reason for their being there except that nobody knew how to get them away.
r> UT the intellectuals whom *** the crisis has crystallized into an acceptancc of war have put themselves into a terrifyingly strategic position. It is only on the craft, in the stream, they say, that one has any chance of controlling the current forces for liberal purposes. If we obstruct, we surrender all power for influence. If we responsibly approve, we then retain our power for guiding. We will be listened to as responsible thinkers, while those who obstructed the coming of war have committed intellectual suicidc and shall be cast into outer darkness. Criticism by the ruling powers will only be accepted from those intellectuals who arc in sympathy with the general tendency of the war. Well, it is true that they may guide, but if their stream leads to disaster and the frustration of national life, is their guiding any more than a preference whether they shall go over the right-hand or the left-hand side of the precipice? Meanwhile, however, there is comfort on board. Be with us, they call, or be negligible, irrelevant. Dissenters are already excommunicated. Irreconcilable radicals, wringing their hands among the debris, become the most despicable and impotent of men. There seems no choice for the intellectual but to join the mass of acceptance. But again the terrible dilemma arises,—either support what is going on, in which case you count for nothing because you are swallowed in the mass and great incalculable forces bear you on; or remain aloof, passively resistant, in which case you count for nothing because you are outside the machinery of reality.
IS there no place left, then, for the intellectual who cannot yet crystallize, who docs not dread suspense, and is not yet drugged with fatigue? The American intellectuals, in their preoccupation with reality, seem to have forgotten that the real enemy is War rather than imperial Germany. There is work to be done to prevent this war of ours from passing into popular mythology as a holy crusade. What shall we do with leaders who tell us that we go to war in moral spotlessness, or who make "democracy" synonymous with a republican form of government? There is work to be done in still shouting that all the revolutionary by-products will not justify the war, or make war anything else than the most noxious complex of all the evils that afflict men. There must be some to find no consolation whatever, and some to sneer at those who buy the cheap emotion of sacrifice. There must be some irreconcilables left who will not even accept the war with walrus tears. There must be some to call unceasingly for peace, and some to insist that the terms of settlement shall be not only liberal but democratic. There must be some intellectuals who are not willing to use the old discredited counters again and to support a peace which would leave all the old inflammable materials of armament lying about the world. There must still be opposition to any contemplated " liberal" world-order founded on military coalitions. The "irreconcilable" need not be disloyal. He need not "even be "impossibilist." His apathy towards war should take the form of a heightened energy and enthusiasm for the education, the art, the interpretation that make for life in the midst of the world of death. The intellectual who retains his animus against war will push out more boldly than ever to make his case solid against it. The old ideals crumble; new ideals must be forged. His mind will continue to roam widely and ceaselessly. The thing he will fear most is premature crystallization. If the American intellectual class rivets itself to a "liberal" philosophy that perpetuates the old errors, there will then be need for "democrats" whose task will be to divide, confuse, disturb, keep the intellectual waters constantly in motion to prevent any such ice from ever forming.

With America's entry into the war we must redouble our efforts to maintain democratic liberties, to destroy militarism, and to build toward world federation. Therefore our immediate program is:
To oppose all legislation tending to fasten upon the United States in war time any permanent military policy based on compulsory military training and service-
To organize legal advice and aid for all men conscientiously opposed to participation in war.
To demand publication by the Government of all agreements or understandings with other nations.
To demand a clear and definite statement of the terms on which the United States will make peace.
To develop the ideal of internationalism in the minds of the American people to the end that this nation may stand firm for world federation at the end of the war.
To fight for the complete maintenance in war time of the constitutional rights of free speech, free press, peaceable assembly and freedom from unlawful search and seizure. With this end in view the Union has recently established a

For Richer or Poorer: A Brief History of Charity & Immigration in NYC
In the sparsely-furnished front room of the Gumpertz apartment at The Lower East Side Tenement Museum, in between the windows, sits a small, black Singer sewing machine. In the wake of the panic of 1873, with jobs hard to come by and with four children to feed, Nathalie Gumpertz would not have been able to afford such a major purchase on her own. Instead, the sewing machine, which allowed Nathalie to support her family in the face of economic hardship, was most likely purchased with money from (or even donated by) United Hebrew Charities, whose ledgers record Nathalie as a recipient.
Many of the immigrants who passed through 97 Orchard Street received aid of various kinds in times of crisis from their friends and neighbors, mutual aid associations, local parish churches, political machines, and even the occasional government program. More established or earlier-arriving immigrants have historically offered some financial support for newer settlers from their communities. The Jewish communities in New York are a perfect example of this trend. For Jewish immigrants, charity had always been a core value of Jewish life; the biblical ideal, tzedakah in Hebrew, translates to "righteousness" or "justice," and connotes "obligation" to give money and material to support others, rather than seeing it as an optional kindness. But those who gave to the United Hebrew Charities saw their work as more than just fulfilling an obligation to help other Jews in need. Concerned with what their neighbors Uptown might think, these early American Jewish philanthropists often gave money to "maintain Jewish families," hoping to discourage men from abandoning their families, women from engaging in prostitution, and parents from neglecting their children. They knew that a Russian Jewish prostitute or a Polish Jewish gangster was just a Jewish criminal to the upper classes, who made no such distinctions.
Although the Gumpertz family did not arrive in New York until the mid-19th century, about the same time that United Hebrew Charities was founded, American Jewish philanthropy had its roots in the early colonial era. As American Jewish mythology had it, Jews were allowed to settle in the U.S. on the express condition that they provide for their own poor, and never allow them to become a burden on the non-Jewish community. As a result, American Jews created their own sectarian aid institutions, which quickly turned to the material relief and vocational training of new immigrants to the U.S. By the time that Nathalie received aid, she was among the last major generation of German immigrants to get help from United Hebrew Charities and similar organizations. By the turn of the 20th century, most Jewish charities were meant for new Eastern European and Russian immigrants, funded and run by the Americanized German Jews whose ancestors had immigrated decades earlier. As the Jewish community in America became more diverse, these newer immigrants sought to become philanthropists themselves, sending aid to relatives and friends in their former hometowns. They frequently created landsmanshafn, organizations of families who had emigrated from the same city or village, to serve as mutual aid societies and as fundraising organizations for projects and charities in their former homes.
By the 20th century, charity meant much more than a simple donation to the United Hebrew Charities. Rich, poor, immigrant, or not, Americans were all of a sudden faced with hundreds of causes and organizations competing for their charity dollars. The decision of where to donate became a way to vote with dollars, demonstrating political, religious, and social commitments. For newer immigrants, the very ability to send money overseas to friends and relatives who depended on it was empowering; though many of them struggled to make a living in the U.S., their pennies had disproportionate influence in their hometowns, especially when combined with those of the other immigrants from their region. Ultimately, philanthropy helped even poorer immigrants to create a new identity for themselves in America: the donor with the power to choose how his money was spent.
For those giving money to support causes they cared about, donations also promoted a new kind of unity, one that helped to create a feeling of communal responsibility amongst Americans, old and new. Without a welfare state or official church to provide medical care and housing for the needy or to feed the hungry, Americans had to step in to support those around them. Despite differences in origin, religion, language, and ideology, extending a helping hand created mutual responsibility and community. By participating in private philanthropy – a uniquely American tradition – they helped to create an American identity for themselves.
Ultimately, while the donations themselves had a profound impact on those they were meant to help (Nathalie Gumpertz remained an upstanding citizen!), they also had a profound impact on those who were doing the giving. Donations and charity work helped to link disparate communities together and to give newcomers a political voice. In America, giving has always been form of self-creation, a way for the giver to make a statement – about who you are, what you value, and what kind of world you envision.
– Post by Rachel Feinmark, Manager of Strategic Communications at The Lower East Side Tenement Museum
The advent of social media-driven fundraising campaigns has only made this more true today. This Tuesday, the Tenement Museum invites you to make your own statement – donate to our #GivingTuesday campaign and tell us about the kind of change you hope to see in the world.

Focus! The Real Enemy is Rezo? (Japanese: Focus! 本当の敵はレゾ?, lit. Focus! Hontō no teki wa Rezo?) is the sixth episode of Slayers. It was first broadcast in Japan on May 12, 1995.
Synopsis Edit
Zelgadiss and Rezo bicker about how Zelgadiss turning against Rezo. When Rezo is just about to make his move, Zelgadiss grabs onto Lina. However, Rezo isn't afraid that Zelgadis is using Lina as a shield. Zelgadiss then reveals that he isn't using her as a shield. Zelgadiss throws Lina towards Rezo, and Rezo dodges her. Zelgadiss then runs towards Lina and picks her up, and throws a couple of fireballs at Rezo to slow him down. Then the pair run for their lives.
Dilgear is upset at the fact that Lina escaped, and is yelling at the guards. Dilgear then gets a message from Rezo, telling him to get Zelgadiss... the traitor.
Meanwhile, Gourry is ultra bored and hungry and tries to entertain himself in his search for Lina.
Lina and Zelgadiss get some rest nearby a lake. Lina asks for answers, and Zelgadiss tells Lina that the Orihalcon statue is holding the infamous Philosopher's Stone, that is very powerful. Lina then figures out that Rezo used the story of resurrecting the Demon King as a decoy in order to get the stone. Zelgadis then starts to tell the story about Rezo, and why he studied the art of white magic. He wanted to cure his blindness. After curing everyone else, Rezo decided to turn to black magic, in hope to cure his blindness. Zelgadiss then reveals Lina that he is related to Rezo.
Lina and Zelgadiss then notice they are surrounded by trolls guided by Dilgear. Zelgadiss using a Dug Haut (which causes the land to turn into spikes) spell, to get most of them. Lina manages to get caught up with a troll herself, while Zelgadiss and Dilgear fight in a whole manly swordfight.
Dilgear leaves himself open, while Zelgadiss slices his shoulder. Dilgear instantly heals and reminds Zelgadiss that he is part troll. Dilgear manages to hit Zelgadiss, but Zelgadiss reminds Dilgear, he's one third golem, and cannot be wounded easily. Zelgadiss tells him the only way Dilgear could hurt him, is with the sword of light! Dilgear then retreats.
After a few words, Zelgadiss decides to join Lina to her journey to Atlas City, where Gourry would be waiting for them.

Trivia Edit
- Dilgear betrays Zelgadiss in this episode.
- The first mention of the Sword of Light. Zelgadiss mentions it during the fight with Dilgear (though it is not seen in action until the next episode).
- The reason for Zelgadiss saying that Rezo is both his Grandfather and his Great-Grandfather in the English version was the result of a translation error. What he's really saying is that Rezo is so old that he could be either his Grandfather or his Great-Grandfather.

A 10-month-old child has miraculously survived after her father allegedly grabbed her by the legs and threw her to the ground in a drunken rage, police in Pursat's Bakan district said yesterday.
The suspect, 26-year-old farmer Mul Khim, also known as Khlei, was sent to court on Saturday, according to district police chief Pen Tung.
"My office [preliminarily] charged him with intentional domestic violence, serious injury and child rights abuse," he said.
According to Tung, on Thursday afternoon Khim came home drunk to his home in Romcheck commune and demanded his wife prepare a meal for him, flying into a rage when she said she was too busy.
Khim then allegedly struck his wife, prompting her to flee the house to seek help, leaving the couple's two children behind.
While she was gone, Tung continued, the suspect allegedly grabbed his 10-month-old daughter's legs and threw her onto the ground, causing serious injury.
Tung said the infant is now recovering in hospital and in stable condition.

Q-Racing Blog: Legends Lost
The industry says goodbye to two legends.
By Ty Wyant | December 8, 2015
Q-Racing Journal
It is impossible to overstate the influence that Suzanne Jones and Charley Smith have had on Quarter Horse racing. Suzanne died on December 5 and Charley died on December 7. Suzanne was 91 and Charley was 85.
They are each in the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame. Suzanne and her husband, Punch, are the only wife-husband pair to be separately inducted in the AQH Hall of Fame. Suzanne, Punch and Charley are all in the Ruidoso Downs' Racehorse Hall of Fame.
Suzanne Jones was involved with every
The Jones family has been ranching about 10 miles west of Tatum, New Mexico for nearly a century. If you go east of Tatum, the next stop is Texas.
Having lunch a few years back at their ranch, Suzanne could look across the table at your eyes and you could tell that she saw more than the overwhelming majority of people. She really cared when she said, "I can tell that you've seen a lot."
It was the same with horses. She saw more in a horse than the average horseman. There are many horsemen who have made millions of dollars with their horses who never know as much about the horse's point of view as Suzanne.
"She was connected to the horse in a way that would be hard to explain," close friend and Ruidoso Downs' chaplain Darrell Winter said. "She was a Christian and every time I talked to her about spiritual matters, she always related it to the horse."
Suzanne was on the University of Arizona rodeo team, showed horses for virtually her entire life, trained international jumper Nautical (star of the movie The Horse With The Flying Tail), was a respected judge, won a show jumping class at Madison Square Garden, was a member of the United States Equestrian Team, started the New Mexico 4-H Horse School and helped build the Jones' breeding operation through their foundation mare Maroon (TB). The blue hen mare is now represented by the seventh generation of her descendants, including stakes winner Kia Won. The gelding was racing at the stakes level last summer.
Charley was a Los Alamitos fixture and will always be a major part of the track's lore. He lived just a few miles from Los Alamitos in Anaheim and died in his sleep in that home.
|Charley Smith with Jet Deck.

"Choo Choo" Charley is best known as the only jockey to ride legendary world champion Jet Deck. He also won the 1963 All American Futurity with Goetta, the 1961 Los Alamitos Championship with Pap, the 1983 running with Jet Deck and the 1967 running with Toy Spur. He won the Los Alamitos Derby with Jet Deck, Goetta, Toy Spur and Truly Night – all within six years. He was the leading rider at Los Alamitos 11 times and "the man" in the jock's room. His honors have been related in many recent stories.
"Charley was a great rider," contemporary jockey and friend Cliff Lambert said. "I think I first met him when I went back to Stroud (Oklahoma) to ride a futurity in 1960.
"He was as good as there was getting away from the gate and a hard worker. I remember that he was really smart. He knew how to read a horse and do what was needed."
Upon his retirement, Charley stayed at Los Alamitos as the carpenter and do-anything, go-to guy. He was always around and more than willing to tell a tale about his historic career, or anything else. Talking to Charley brought a smile.
"I called (Charley) about every week," Lambert, the winning jockey for the first All American Futurity, said. "He's been in bad shape. He was a great guy."
Prayers go out for their wonderful, supportive families. Thank you for your selfless care.
*A note from Wrangler Ace Martha Claussen:
Countdown for G. R.: G. R. Carter Jr., the all-time leading jockey in American Quarter Horse racing, is winding down his three-decade long career this month. The 47-year-old will compete in this Saturday's $600,000 Champion of Champions (G1) at Los Alamitos and will likely ride the final race of his career a week from Saturday at Evangeline Downs.
Carter's mount in the Champion of Champions is Dashin Brown Streak, a 5-year-old son of Hotdoggin, who was voted Remington Park's 2015 Horse of the Meeting. Owned by the estate of CW Navarre and Melvin Hatley, he won both the Grade 1 Leo Stakes and Remington Park Championship for trainer John Brasseaux. Paul Jones has been overseeing his training at Los Alamitos.
"Paul says he's doing really well," said Carter. "It's a great field, but I know he's capable if he runs his best race."
Next Saturday, Carter will travel to Opelousas, Louisiana, to ride Valeriano Racing Stables LLC's The Valiant Prince in the $100,000-added Evangeline Futurity. He qualified the California-bred son of Valiant Hero for trainer Cindi Keeton in trials on November 27.
Carter announced his retirement plans earlier this year and is looking forward to a holiday skiing vacation in Ruidoso, New Mexico, with Shaena, his wife of 23 years. An ardent supporter and board member of the Jockeys' Guild, Carter has given back to the Quarter Horse industry and will be missed by a legion of horsemen and racing fans. Born in Oklahoma, he began his career at Blue Ribbons Downs 31 years ago.
"I rode my first race when I was just 16 in Salisaw (Oklahoma)," recalls Carter. "Recently, a fan came up to me and said 'I saw your Dad ride at Blue Ribbon Downs in 1984. I just laughed and told him 'that was me'. That's how long I've been doing this!"
Open Me a Corona Poised For Six: It takes a special horse to win five stakes in a row and on Saturday at Fair Grounds, Open Me A Corona will attempt to close out his career with a victory in the $100,000 Louisiana Champions Day Classic Stakes (RG2).
The Louisiana-bred son of Coronas Leaving You is owned by Charles Forbes Jr. and Tommy Hays and has won 11 of his 13 career starts under the capable care of trainer Bobby Martinez. He will face six rivals in the 440-yard Classic, the first of three Quarter Horse stakes on the 13-race card at Fair Grounds on Saturday.
Open Me A Corona broke his maiden at Evangeline Downs in trials for the 2012 LQHBA Breeders Futurity and earned $445,000 as the winner of the seven-figure stakes. His 5-year-old campaign has been flawless with five consecutive stakes, beginning in February with a victory in the Mr Jess Perry at Louisiana Downs. His most recent score was November 14 when he drew off by 2 lengths in the 400-yard, $50,000 Opelousas Stakes at Evangeline Downs.
"He just does everything right and is a very sound horse," said Martinez.
Martinez has trained some exceptional horses in his career, including world champion Oak Tree Special. On Saturday, he will bid farewell to Open Me A Corona who will stand stud at Robicheaux Ranch in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana in 2016.
"It looks like he has locked up champion stallion honors, but we hope we go out with a win," said Martinez.
Wrangler Racing Aces in December: Wrangler Racing Ace Denis Blake chronicled some great history on the Grade 1, Champion of Champions for the December issue of HorsePlayer.now magazine.
Martha Claussen will be heading to Fair Grounds on Saturday, December 12 for Louisiana Champions Day. The stakes-filled card begins with three Quarter Horse championships and continues throughout the afternoon with some of the top Louisiana-bred Thoroughbreds competing on both turf and the main track.

[CONTENT NOTE: Jeezus mockery, blasphemy and general religious insensitivity, gay porn, childish butt humor, profanity, (non-violent) revenge fantasies and probably other offensive shit as well.]
It's that time of year again: 'tis the season to get drunk watching Bad Santa, avoid annoying family members as much as possible, and go broke buying craptastic gifts for a bunch of people you can't even stand. Well Loyal Readers™, you're on your own with Bad Santa and dodging your gawdawful relatives, but as far as craptastic gifts? The Palace is 100% here for you!
The First Annual and Probably the Only One Ever
Palace Craptastic Holiday Shopping Guide!
We've got perfect gifts for everyone you hate—there's something special to suit every budget!
First up:
Jesus ("Sweetest Name I Know") Scripture Candy!
I was at the Rite-Aid yesterday on account of my Umpteenth Annual Holiday Season Head Cold trying to convince the pharmacist that I am not, in fact, a meth dealer so she should hand over some of that Mucinex-D, when I spotted these babies. Well as you can imagine, I could hardly wait to get them home. Inside the metal tin are 23 peppermint candies, each individually wrapped with a message—get this—from God! A sampling:
Psalm 91:11: Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. (Easy-peasy: "Oh god, oh god, oh god…" All praise Lord Shiva!)
Eph. 6:11: Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. (Now why would I ever want to do a silly thing like that? Unless it's kinky. Wait, is it kinky?)
Mat. 5:3: Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (A hands-down favorite of CEOs/feudal lords, tyrants and cheap-ass motherfuckers throughout the ages!)
Psalm 120:1: In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. (And yet as usual he did absolutely nothing whatsoever. It was kind of a douche move.)
Luke 8:11: The seed is the word of God. (Hahaha. Awesome.)
The festive tins are elegantly shrink-wrapped for your protection, and truly need no further embellishment. Just write your recipient's initials right on the price tag! Remember to do the classy thing and cross out the price: you don't want your gift to be too tacky, amirite? [NOTE: not recommended for Hanukkah.]
Next up:
Ass Fragrance Gift Sets!
I called up CVS to inquire about the price of these Ass Fragrance Gift Sets but they were not helpful. Like, AT ALL. In any case you will not want to miss this Buy-1-Get-1-Free deal: I am sure you can think of several recipients right off the top of your head for whom this eau de toilet gift would perfectly express your sentiments.
For all the right-wing authoritarian "patriots" on your gift list, nothing says "I love permanent war and militarized police!" better than 2½ inch tall Army Guy Candles. Beautifully cast in holiday-toned green wax in five classic poses indicative of imminent violent aggression, these little d00ds make fabulous additions to any dessert or nativity scene. If the price is a bit steep for your budget, consider dividing them up: that's less than $2.20 per Army Guy Candle!
Ugly Fucking Reindeer Sweaters & Tees!
($17.99 – $39.99; as shown: $29.99)
That's right: with ugly fucking reindeer sweaters and tees, now anyone can proudly display their complete and utter lack of any sense of style or decency wearing the LORD's creation doin' some procreation of its own!
Lucky wearers can now say "Happy Birthday Jeezus!" with hideous depictions of frolicking reindeer in flagrante delicto splashed right across their torsos. There are many ugly styles of fucking reindeer to choose from, in men's, women's and junior sizes. Why not mix-&-mismatch for the whole family?
"Horny Holiday" Gay Porn DVD!
Don't forget special gifts for your favorite homophobes! Admittedly, we have not yet run this particular selection by the Palace's Official Gay Porn Consultant™. But frankly we just don't see where you can possibly go wrong here with this description [heavily redacted below; link = NSFW]:
"Horny Holiday follows the greeting card list of two lucky guys. As they fill out the holiday wishes, we are treated with a glimpse into the hot sex lives of the studs they are close to…With a well placed mirror, we are able to feast our eyes on the action from back and front at the same time…a great time next to the old Yule Log…The guys in this film are awesome at what they do and what they do is fun to watch."
Featuring an all-Brazilian cast, this dick flick is sure to offend homophobes, racists and nativists alike! (SIDE NOTE: if you don't have any friends who would actually enjoy receiving this film as a gift, well…you need to get some better friends.)
And finally:
Richman's International Millionaire's Club Membership!
($15.2 million)
When money is no object, neither is there any limit to the depth of our deviousness. A Hong Kong-based company is offering only 100 Charter Corporate Platinum Memberships in Richman's IMC (International Millionaire's Club), billed as the world's most expensive private club. Now before you balk at the $15.2 million price tag—which I admit did seem a little high at first glance—consider that this is not just a membership at a single club. No no. It's an "all-access, first-class VIP pass" to multiple yacht clubs, country clubs, golf courses, ski resorts, jockey clubs, gentlemans clubs, supper clubs, luxury hotels and restaurants around the world, thus eliminating the need for multiple memberships! There are all kinds of additional perks, such as the right to own and race horses at China's Royal Nanjing Jockey Club; personal bodyguards, travel guides and elite escorts worldwide; and the ability to charge expenses to an exclusive global biometrics-protected club card with a $1 million credit line—although I don't know how anybody seriously expects to get very far on such a pittance these days.
Anyway, at $15.2 million, it's a steal. Still don't believe me? Just look at the kind of insufferable privileged twits your gift recipient will be stuck with, at sea, on chartered yachts!
Memberships are good for 30 years. That's a looooong time, my friends, for you to enjoy snickering at the continuous pain you've so effortlessly inflicted on some deserving doucheweasel.

Looking back on my 11 years at Seattle City Light, I'm most proud of the team that came together and what they were able to accomplish. The utility was facing some serious financial, cultural and service challenges as the new century dawned. Thanks to our smart, hard-working team, and with the support of the Mayor and City Council, we addressed the hard issues head on. City Light was charted on a new course. Debt was paid down, costs were controlled, reserves were built up, and risk management was enhanced. Most importantly, City Light was positioned to provide the best customer service experience of any utility. This online annual report highlights the powerful progress in 2014.Jorge Carrasco

It's been a while again that i did not post anything, no entries for memes and updates for what simply happened on me or around me.
I've mention it many times.....that even if i wanted to write something if i'm not in the momentum to do so....then i can't write anything though i always have so many ideas to share. I wish i am a writer and i am good in words...where i don't need to wait for that moment that an essay can simply be written without even thinking so hard.
I feel so great having so many comments from a simple post for a certain topics on meme's and i missed it so much if i didn't join the daily entries but lately i was too busy preparing for our alumni Christmas Party and was too lazy to post anything. I always have a boring days at work and if i wanted to i can write as many post as i can everyday but like what i said it isn't easy to write.
Hoping to update all my blogs soon...

KY bourbon finds it way into my baking after a weekend trip through KY Bourbon country last fall. The countryside is beautiful, the history is interesting, and the bourbon balls….aaahhhh. Even 'non-partakers' will enjoy a couple of days along the KY Bourbon Trail.
Here's the link to my pictures from the trip if you would like to take a virtual trip along the Ky Bourbon trail, with a short visit to Louisville.
This brownie is my Valentine version of my Christmas bourbon ball.
The brownies are very good; the texture is somewhat dense and spongy rather than gooey. This recipe is adapted from the "Fat Witch Brownies" cookbook.
The bourbon flavor intensifies as the brownies sit for a few days. My last few brownies and caramelized pecans are soon to become the brownie-bourbon-chunks in a quart of vanilla bean ice cream.
Caramelized Pecans
1/2 c pecan halves, toasted in 350 oven for about 10 minutes and cooled
1/2 c. granulated sugar, slowly heated in pan until melted and caramelized
Mix the pecans and caramel together and quickly pour onto Silpat to cool. Break apart when cooled.
Bourbon Brownies
Melt in pan, then set aside to cool slightly:
7 T butter
3/4 c. semisweet chocolate chips
In separate bowl, stir together:
3 eggs
3/4 c. granulated sugar
1 t vanilla
Add the butter/chocolate to the egg/sugar mixture.
1/3 c. whiskey
1 c. all purpose flour
1/4 t salt
Stir until flour is incorporated. Spread into buttered/floured 9″x9″ square baking pan.
Bake at 350 degrees about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool 1 hour before cutting.
These will intensify in flavor after sitting overnight.
As you can see from the pictures, the brownies cut easily (cut when cold out of the refrigerator) with cookie cutters.

Louth Community Larder
If you have been without proper housing for some time, and are now able to move into somewhere, there are possible problems even if you now have a roof. The flat or house you are moving into may well be partially equipped with the usual kitchen things, but you and yours still need to eat! As a short term help while you get sorted out we have a scheme in Louth called the "Community Larder".

That being said, IMO, abortion should be a private choice, with no legal repercussions to the involved individuals that chose to end a life in this manner. I doubt the law will change.
This is a sensible position.
I have nothing against those which have a core belief that life begins at conception, or try to sway women into keeping the fetus into birth. When you start wanting to take away the right to abortions and punishing them for it, that's where things get ugly.

For those of you who follow me on Twitter, I'm sure you've seen my two cents on this fall's it color: oxblood.
But don't judge the color by its name, folks.
|In love with the Nina Ricci dress! (image via)
Oxblood is an absolutely stunning color.
A dark, rich maroon - almost blood-like color that's got a vampy twist to it and when paired with pale greys or metallics reminds me of Valentino's Fall 2009 Campaign -- sultry, smoldering yet classic.
|Valentino Fall 2009 Campaign (image via)
The color just screams fall, and I can't wait to paint my closet with it -- I'm thinking scarves, a statement bag, gloves or a fun pair of pumps.
Even better, match the outfit with a dark lipstick, and I guarantee we'll turn heads on a night out.
Try this Giorgio Armani 'Rouge d'Armani' Lipstick from the its Fall Collection
Color: #408; $30 at Nordstrom
A little scared to incorporate oxblood into your wardrobe?
Here are my picks for styling this fall's it color: (courtesy of Polyvore)
|image via
Love the color for bold statement accessories - that satchel and belt are divine.
|image via
Simple ways of incorporating the color without going over the top -
try a clutch, a simple jersey tank or a pair of booties.
|Not Your Daughter Jeans, $98 at Nordstrom
These patterned jeans make the color a little more subtle and not over the top. As we're transitioning between summer and fall, I love how this model styles a bright blue shirt with it.
|Ivanka Trump 'Valentina' Pump (Nordstrom Exclusive), $139.95 at Nordstrom
You've seen my picks...
will you wear oxblood this fall?

Anurag Kashyap: About Danish and Indian film
In this video-clip, Anurag Kashyap talks about how he perceives the Danish film production
Director Anurag Kashyap is one of the driving forces in the new Indian independent-film-wave. Earlier this year he was in the jury of CPH PIX and came to Copenhagen to present the film 'Trishna', which he has produced and plays in. In August 2012 he came back in town to introduce the two opening films of the festival.
In this clip, Anurag Kashyap talks about the CPH PIX Film Festival and the new emerging Indian cinema
About CPH PIX Film Festival
The programme of CPH PIX offers 24 films packed with underground attitude, independent spirit and a handful of Bollywood bangs. In addition, the festival has invited some of the Indian indie film's most notable new filmmakers, including Srinivas Sunderrajan (The Untitled Kartik Krishnan Project, Greater Elephant), Umesh Kulkarni (The Temple), debutant Aditi Roy (At the End of It All) and film curator Amrit Gangar with the experimental film programme Cinema of Prayoga.
More information about the film festival in Copenhagen here:
Anurag Kashyap tells about the Indian film scene
About Anurag Kashyap
Indian film director and screenwriter Anurag Singh Kashyap was listed among the 50 most influential Indians in 2011 by the Indian media house DNA, and he has received a long row of awards since his debut in 2004. He was born in Uttar Pradesh in 1972.

This trip is a birthday treat for myself. I've always wanted to go back to enjoy the cool weather of the city, eat as much strawberries I can, and to just relax and unwind.
We took the Victory Liner Bus. I was actually hoping to try their "First Class Bus" but too bad there were no First Class Trips available on my preferred schedule. (Tip: Book your trip Online. You don't want to be included in the chance passenger list)
We left Manila around 2:00 AM. I thought travel time will be at least 6 hours. I was surprised when we arrived in Victory Liner Baguio Terminal at 6:00 AM. This means we are 2 hours ahead of schedule (based on the itinerary I prepared). So let's start from here:
Cafe by the Ruins. Before anything else…Breakfast (I'm a breakfast lover <3)
The place is actually a walking distance (perhaps 15 minutes walk) from bus station. We opted to take a cab (I'm not ready to do the walking yet hehe). The place is still closed when we arrived (still a good thing we're early. They say lines can get crazy). They open at 7:00 AM.
Since we are early, we're able to secure ourselves a good spot. I love the ambiance of this place. It's peaceful & very homey. Looking at the menu, I wanted to order basically everything. But my travel buddy reminded me of our budget (which, by the way, I dictated). So ok – we ordered the set meal – Beef Tapa for the lady and Longganisa for the Gentleman. Rice meals are served with a cup of coffee & fresh fruits (which is already a good deal). We paid Php 760.00 (still within the budget of Php 800.00).
BenCab Museum...of course
My travel buddy wanted to have a walk first (He's so full. He ate 1/4 of my meal too!). He thought of taking the "jeep" instead of hailing a cab. I was in a good mood (thanks to my hearty breakfast) so I agreed. We had to walk for 5 minutes to get to the Jeepney Terminal. Each of us paid Php 11.00 🙂 It was a 15 minute drive. The driver dropped us few meters from the museum then took another 3 minute walk (I'm not complaining. I loved the weather and I'm really in a mood for a "good walk")
We were too early (once again). The gallery opens at 9:00 AM. Entrance fee is Php 120.00 per person. We were early thus we didn't have to line up. The receptionist and staff are friendly and courteous. The place is quite spacious and well-mainted. They have a room for each type of art (like a room for erotica paintings, contemporary arts, sculptures etc.). I enjoyed the view from the veranda!
Here are some pictures taken inside the gallery (they are very instagram-able hehe)

I always enjoy watching the mainstream arrive late to the party.
2004 Mainstream: Hey did you know it's cool to be bisexual (if you're a hot looking woman)?
2004 Me: Oh, that's adorable, but I'm too busy having threeways to talk to you right now.
2014 Mainstream: Hey did you know (this will totally blow your mind) people are questioning if monogamy is the 'way to go'?
2014 Me: Everyone I know who I am not related to by blood is polyamorous.
2014 Mainstream: …
2014 Me: Dawww, don't look so sad, mainstream, soon you'll discover trans rights and you'll be excited again.
This article from a couple years ago that I tripped over absolutely reeks of 'young people today, amirite? [eyeroll]' and sortof kindof throws a few stats and odd facts together in a pretty lazy bit of journalism.
However, buried in the bottom is an absolute gem of a block quote which I will shamelessly repeat here (emphasis mine).
"I'm not out actively trying to get laid. Even on tour, I find myself getting high and watching Adventure Time or mixing music or doing something introverted and nerdy so I can make better music." Still, "you find someone that's just so amazing that it would be irresponsible on your life's trajectory not to [sleep with them], then that's what the five percent is for. I don't want to ever feel like I missed out."

On what sets a writer apart, he said: "There's a confessional impulse that not every literate, intelligent person has. A crazy belief that you have some exciting news about being alive, and I guess that more than talent is what separates those who do it from those who think they'd like to."
About short stories, he said: "...you've got to make everything count toward a certain effect at the end."
In an introduction to his book of essays, he wrote: "Writing criticism is to writing fiction and poetry as hugging the shore is to sailing in the open sea."
He said recently: "My ultimate duty to the text, while I'm still alive, is to make it the best I can, so I was hoping to make an absolutely perfect universe here. If only one person in 2050 noticed what I had done, I did not want to make a single mistake."
Of writing books, he said: "You can't think of offending readers. Fiction, it seems to me, should be surprising or abrasive. Fiction should be in your face. I know I've suffered for that -- there are some women who just don't read me because they think I'm sexist or something. What can you say to that at this point -- that I've raised two daughters in the best way I could. I know that criticism has cost me a bit, but you have to sing your own song. You have to write your own books."
And finally, he said: "I'd like to be thought of, at least, as someone who tried to do justice to my own talent and exploited it as fully as I could. And also as someone who was bravely honest, who tried to write generously and in a spirit of interest in his fellow man."
