- Foreign relations of the Soviet Union
At its founding, the
Soviet Unionwas considered a pariah by most countries, and as such was denied diplomatic recognitionby most states. Less than a quarter century later, the Soviet Unionnot only had official relations with the majority of the nations of the world, but had actually progressed to the role of superpower. By 1945, the USSR—a founding member of the United Nations—was one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, giving it the right to veto any of the Security Council's resolutions ("see" Soviet Union and the United Nations). During the Cold War, the Soviet Union vied with the United States for geopolitical influence; this competition was manifested in the creation of numerous treaties and pacts dealing with military alliances and economic trade agreements, and proxy wars.
Ideology and objectives of Soviet foreign policy
According to Soviet theorists, the basic character of Soviet foreign policy was set forth in Vladimir I. Lenin's "
Decree on Peace", adopted by the Second Congress of Sovietsin November 1917. It set forth the dual nature of Soviet foreign policy, which encompasses both proletarianinternationalism and peaceful coexistence. On the one hand, proletarian internationalism refers to the common cause of the working classes of all countries in struggling to overthrow the bourgeoisieand to establish communist regimes. Peaceful coexistence, on the other hand, refers to measures to ensure relatively peaceful government-to-government relations with capitalist states. Both policies can be pursued simultaneously: "Peaceful coexistence does not rule out but presupposes determined opposition to imperialist aggression and support for peoples defending their revolutionary gains or fighting foreign oppression."Text used in this cited section originally came from: [http://lcweb2.loc.gov/frd/cs/sutoc.html Chapter 10 of the Soviet Union Country Study] from the Library of Congress Country Studiesproject.]
The Soviet commitment in practice to proletarian internationalism declined since the founding of the Soviet state, although this component of ideology still had some effect on later formulation and execution of Soviet foreign policy. Although pragmatic raisons d'état undoubtedly accounted for much of more recent Soviet foreign policy, the ideology of
class strugglestill played a role in providing a worldview and certain loose guidelines for action in the 1980s. Marxist-Leninist ideology reinforces other characteristics of political culture that create an attitude of competition and conflict with other states.
The general foreign policy goals of the Soviet Union were formalized in a party program ratified by delegates to the Twenty-Seventh Party Congress in February-March 1986. According to the program, "the main goals and guidelines of the CPSU's international policy" included ensuring favorable external conditions conducive to building communism in the Soviet Union; eliminating the threat of world war;
disarmament; strengthening the "world socialist system"; developing "equal and friendly" relations with "liberated" [Third World] countries; peaceful coexistence with the capitalist countries; and solidarity with communist and revolutionary-democratic parties, the international workers' movement, and national liberation struggles.
Although these general foreign policy goals were apparently conceived in terms of priorities, the emphasis and ranking of the priorities have changed over time in response to domestic and international stimuli. After
Gorbachevassumed power in 1985, for instance, some Western analysts discerned in the ranking of priorities a possible de-emphasis of Soviet support for national liberation movements. Although the emphasis and ranking of priorities were subject to change, two basic goals of Soviet foreign policy remained constant: national security (safeguarding CPSU rule through internal control and the maintenance of adequate military forces) and, since the late 1940s, influence over Eastern Europe.
Many Western analysts have examined the way Soviet behavior in various regions and countries supports the general goals of Soviet foreign policy. These analysts have assessed Soviet behavior in the 1970s and 1980s as placing primary emphasis on relations with the United States, which was considered the foremost threat to the national security of the Soviet Union. Second priority was given to relations with
Eastern Europe(the European members of the Warsaw Pact) and Western Europe(the European members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization--NATO). Third priority was given to the littoral or propinquitous states along the southern border of the Soviet Union: Turkey(a NATO member), Iran, Afghanistan, People's Republic of China, Mongolia, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea(North Korea), and Japan. Regions near to, but not bordering, the Soviet Union were assigned fourth priority. These included the Middle Eastand North Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Last priority was given to sub-Saharan Africa, the islands in the Pacific and Indian oceans, and Latin America, except insofar as these regions either provided opportunities for strategic basing or bordered on strategic naval straits or sea lanes. In general, Soviet foreign policy was most concerned with superpower relations (and, more broadly, relations between the members of NATO and the Warsaw Pact), but during the 1980s Soviet leaders pursued improved relations with all regions of the world as part of its foreign policy objectives.
Before World War II
It is possible to detect three distinct phases in Soviet foreign policy between the conclusion of the
Russian Civil Warand the Nazi-Soviet Pactin 1939, determined in part by political struggles within the USSR, and in part by dynamic developments in international relations and the effect these had on Soviet security.
Although to begin within, and under the partial guidance of the
Third International, the government of Leninattempted to export revolution to the rest of Europe, this effectively came to a halt after the Soviet defeat in the war with Poland in 1921. Thereafter, a policy of peaceful co-existence began to emerge, with Soviet diplomats attempting to end the country's isolation, and concluding bi-lateral arrangements with 'capitalist' governments. Agreement was reached with Germany, Europe's other 'outcast' of the day, in the Treaty of Rapallo in 1922.
There were, however, still those in the Soviet government, most notably
Leon Trotsky, who argued for the continuation of the revolutionary process, in terms of his theory of Permanent Revolution. After Lenin's death in 1924 Trotsky and the internationalists were opposed by Joseph Stalinand Nikolai Bukharin, who developed the notion of " Socialism in One Country". The foreign policy counterpart of "Socialism in One Country" was that of the United Front, with foreign Communists urged to enter into alliances with reformist left-wing parties and national liberation movements of all kinds. The high point of this strategy was the partnership between the Chinese Communist Party and the nationalist Kuomintang, a policy favoured by Stalin in particular, and a source of bitter dispute between him and Trotsky. The United Front policy in China effectively crashed to ruin in 1927, when Chiang Kai-shekmassacred the native Communists and expelled all of his Soviet advisors, notably Mikhail Borodin.
The following year, after having defeated the left-opposition, led by Trotsky and
Grigory Zinoviev, and the right-opposition, led by Nikolai Bukharin, Stalin began the wholesale collectivisationof Soviet agriculture, accompanied by a major programme of planned industrialisation. This new radical phase was paralleled by the formulation of a new doctrine in the International, that of the so-called Third Period, an ultra-left switch in policy, which argued that Social Democracy, whatever shape it took, was a form of Social fascism, socialist in theory but fascist in practice. All foreign Communist Parties-increasinngly agents of Soviet policy-were to concentrate their efforts in a struggle against their rivals in the working-class movement, ignoring the threat of real Fascism. There were to be no united fronts against a greater enemy. The catastrophic effects of this policy, and the negative effect it had on Soviet security, was to be fully demonstrated by the victory of Hitlerin 1933, followed by the destruction of the German Communist Party, the strongest in Europe. The Third Way and Social Fascism were quickly dropped into the dustbin of history. Once again collaboration with other progressive elements was the key, in the form of the Popular Front, which cast the net still wider to embrace moderate bourgeois parties. Soviet-German cooperation, extensive until 1933, has been now limited.
Hand-in-hand with the promotion of Popular Fronts,
Maxim Litvinov, Commissar for Foreign Affairs between 1930 and 1939, aimed at closer alliances with western governments, and placed ever greater emphasis on collective security. The new policy led to the Soviet Union joining the League of Nationsin 1934, and the subsequent conclusion of alliances with France and Czechoslovakia. In the League the Soviets were active in demanding action against imperialist aggression, a particular danger to them after the Japanese invasion of Manchuria, which eventually resulted in the Soviet-Japanese Battle of Khalkhin Gol.
But against the rise of militant fascism and imperialism the League accomplished very little. Indeed, in the end it was only USSR that took a stand in trying to preserve the
Second Spanish Republic, and its Popular Front government, from the Fascist rebellion of 1936. The Munich Agreementof 1938, the first stage in the dismemberment of Czechoslovakia, gave rise to Soviet fears that they were likely to be abandoned in a possible war with Germany. In the face of continually dragging and seemingly hopeless negotiations with Great Britainand France, a new cynicism and hardness entered Soviet foreign relations when Litvinov was replaced by Vyacheslav Molotovin May 1939. The Soviets no longer sought collective but individual security, and the Pact with Hitler was signed, giving Soviets protection from the most aggressive European power and increasing Soviet sphere of influence.
The aftermath of World War II
The Soviet Union emerged from
World War IIas one of the two major world powers, a position maintained for four decades through its hegemony in Eastern Europe ("see" Eastern Bloc), military strength, aid to developing countries and scientific research especially into space technology and weaponry. The Union's effort to extend its influence or control over many states and peoples resulted in the formation of a world socialist system of states. Established in 1949 as an economic bloc of communist countries led by Moscow, the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance(COMECON) served as a framework for cooperation among the planned economies of the Soviet Union, its allies in Eastern Europe and, later, Soviet allies in the Third World. The military counterpart to the Comecon was the Warsaw Pact.
Moscow considered Eastern Europe to be a buffer zone for the forward defense of its western borders and ensured its control of the region by transforming the East European countries into subservient allies. Soviet troops crushed a popular uprising and rebellion in
Budapest, Hungaryin 1956 and ended insubordination by the Czechoslovak government in 1968. In addition to military occupation and intervention, the Soviet Union controlled Eastern European states through its ability to supply or withhold vital natural resources.
KGB("Committee for State Security"), the bureau responsible foreign espionage and internal surveillance, was famous for its effectiveness. A massive network of informants throughout the Soviet Union was used to monitor dissent from official Soviet politics and morals.
The 1970s onwards
In the 1970s, the Soviet Union achieved rough nuclear parity with the United States, and surpassed it by the end of that decade with the deployment of the
SS-18missile. It perceived its own involvement as essential to the solution of any major international problem. Meanwhile, the Cold Wargave way to "Détente" and a more complicated pattern of international relations in which the world was no longer clearly split into two clearly opposed blocs. Less powerful countries had more room to assert their independence, and the two superpowers were partially able to recognize their common interest in trying to check the further spread and proliferation of nuclear weapons ("see" SALT I, SALT II, Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty).
Elsewhere the Soviet Union had concluded friendship and cooperation treaties with a number of states in the non-communist world, especially among Third World and
Non-Aligned Movementstates. Notwithstanding some ideological obstacles, Moscow advanced state interests by gaining military footholds in strategically important areas throughout the Third World. Furthermore, the USSR continued to provide military aid for revolutionary movements in the Third World. For all these reasons, Soviet foreign policy was of major importance to the non-communist world and helped determine the tenor of international relations.
Although myriad bureaucracies were involved in the formation and execution of Soviet foreign policy, the major policy guidelines were determined by the Politburo of the Communist Party. The foremost objectives of Soviet foreign policy had been the maintenance and enhancement of national security and the maintenance of hegemony over Eastern Europe. Relations with the United States and Western Europe were also of major concern to Soviet foreign policy makers and, much as with the United States, relations with individual Third World states were at least partly determined by the proximity of each state to the border and to estimates of strategic significance.
Gorbachev and after
Mikhail Gorbachevsucceeded Konstantin Chernenkoas General Secretary of the Communist Party in 1985, it signalled a dramatic change in Soviet foreign policy. Gorbachev pursued conciliatory policies toward the West instead of maintaining the Cold War status quo. The USSR ended its military occupation of Afghanistan, signed strategic arms reduction treaties with the United States, and allowed its satellite states in Eastern Europe to determine their own affairs.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991,
Russiaclaimed to be the legal successor to the Soviet Union on the international stage despite its loss of superpower status. Russian foreign policy repudiated Marxism-Leninism as a guide to action, soliciting Western support for capitalist reforms in post-Soviet Russia.

Nodame Fashion Story 1
Ladies (and gents?), let's talk some Nodame fashion!^^
xXx "Senpai, it's your belt!!" xXx
While watching the drama, I often found myself wondering about the outfits that Ueno Juri wonderfully wore as Nodame, questioning whether they were custom-designed for the character( I mean, Nodame wears those one-pieces A LOT) or if they actually resulted from a great and careful job done by the production team's stylists in making the outfits selection. I thought they found the perfect look for Nodame in the drama as it matches with the image of Nodame in the original manga.
With some bouts of research that I did a while back(okay,so it was more "clicking" and "browsing" than an actual researching lol) I discovered the names of some of the labels used in the drama and I will feature them here in the blog from time to time. I'm sure some of us here already have the advantage of knowing some of these labels,but for those who don't ..there's nothing to lose if you check them out ne.Of course I am no fashion guru here,but just in case anybody feels like doing some online shopping to dress like Nodame...
was Tartan Shop York, and as the name suggested the label focuses on outfits from tartan fabrics, ranging from dresses,tops,coats,shirts,pants and even shoes and sandals. Also included as part of their collections are knitted wears, button-downs, cardigans and scarfs and even funky nails sets. And they have a range of lifestyle products in tartan as well.^^
For more information,visit the label's official site here.It's fully in Japanese though. Or maybe if you happened to be in Sendai,Japan sometime soon, why not take a look at the shop on the 1st Floor,Fashion Dome 141.^^

Patiently ne, sooner or later I will definitely blog about the stuffs you wanted to read(and DL). ^^
xXx Nodame/Chiaki banner by chained_angel13 xXx
By the way,I just started a Nodame Cantabile Live Action "rewatch-marathon" yesterday.YET again. *sighs* I don't know how many times I've rewatched the NC drama now,but I do know that I never seemed to grow bored of it!And I do know that this time around I'm watching it with a different feeling; my heart would suddenly just go doki doki at certain scenes where Nodame and Chiaki are together.^^ Why the sudden doki doki?Because I've FINALLY,ohmydearestgod finally arrived at Chapter 87 of the manga,that's why!*squeee*
I'm sure those of you who are also reading the manga knows what I'm talking about..hehe.*insert Nodame's "I'm in ecstasy" expression here* Sigh,Chapter 87 was so worthy of the thorough reading of the few previous chapters before it.I'm sooo glad I didn't just quickly flip through the chapters or sneak a peek at 87 at all before that(or read the spoilers!).Although I was very tempted to do so~I mean I have to admit I was just dying to know exactly what was going to happen.It was slowly killing me in from the inside,seriously!^^
Anyhow,when I finally came around to reading the chapter itself,and finally got there..oh,what bliss!I just had to re-read it over and over again AND again.Ninomiya Tomoko Sensei is simply brilliant in the way that she slowly but so surely developed Nodame and Chiaki's beautiful and complex relationship~it's perfect for me.And while I'm predicting a not-too-smooth journey for the Golden Pair in the future chapters (because I just have to be realistic like that) I AM going to savour the moments of 87 to the fullest extent before the amazing NCIS team releases chap. 88. *sigh*
I'm also looking forward to find out more about the newer plotlines that Sensei had started in the last couple of chapters,it's definitely getting more interesting.I honestly had never ever thought of a Tanya/Kuroki possibility happening before this,and right now I'm still quite undecided on how I feel about it.Guess I'll have to wait and see how their story plays out in the manga,if there is indeed going to be any.
And just because I'm so in the mood for NodamexChiaki right now..
I wonder if we'll ever get to see Nodame and Chiaki dressed up like this in the manga.^^
*Mel goes off to re-read chappie 87 while listening to Beethoven's "Moonlight".*

It's a London Thing
Ordinary People
By Diana Evans
Chatto & Windus 329pp £14.99 order from our bookshop
In Nick Drake's song 'Time Has Told Me', the singer reminds himself that time has taught him 'not to ask for more'. Diana Evans's sparkling third novel, Ordinary People, is full of characters asking for more, while undervaluing the gifts life has bestowed upon them. Focusing on two couples – Michael and Melissa, and Damian and Stephanie – and their young children, it's also a book fuelled by music; the title is taken from a song on John Legend's 2004 debut album, Get Lifted, which is central to Michael and Melissa's outwardly perfect relationship. The voices of Jill Scott, Millie Jackson, Amy Winehouse, Prince and Michael Jackson are rapturously evoked, along with the ominous counter-voice of south London police sirens and their 'endless wail of trouble'.

The end of April really snuck up on me this week! This Fit Friday is all about baring our sweaty soles in a Runfessions post. A place to spill all that is on our minds concerning running, cycling, swimming and gym going. Let's get right to those April Runfessions I've got a few to share.
April Runfessions I've got a few
I Runfess…I really thought that spring might have bypassed us all together this month. Just when I was about to give up, we were rewarded with some beautiful spring running and cycling days. Definitely worth savoring before our usual heat and humidity come rolling in.
I Runfess…I have no problem running outside all winter long but cycling is another story all together. I am a biking wimp when it comes to cold temps. I just don't warm up as well on my bike. So, I've only had about 5 outdoor rides so far this season which would be fine if my first sprint triathlon for the year was not next weekend. Yikes! I would have liked a few more weeks on the bike before the race.
I Runfess…This season of Girls on The Run is just flying by. We are only 3 weeks away from our end of the season 5K race. I am really proud of my 3rd-6th graders for getting out on the field to run and participate through less than ideal weather conditions. Seeing the smiles on their little faces as they complete each lap is just priceless.
I Runfess…I am feeling much better about my running right now so of course, I am looking around for more races to sign up for. Looking at maybe RnR Chicago in July and/or Philadelphia half in November.
Mark your planners for the next Ultimate Coffee Date Linkup Saturday, May 5th.
Felt good to get all of that off of my chest! Are you finally having great spring temps? Should I sign up for one of those races? What do you have to April Runfess?
Linking up
Running on Happy and Fairytales & Fitness

Hello, everyone! Happy Saturday! We are coming up on the time where we want to spread our wings and do our own thing. That would mean leaving our 9 – 5 jobs behind. This will give us so much freedom expand Fitness To Cosplay and everything else we want to do to the fullest. But we still need to pay bills.
What are our plans?
We want to create items to sell where the money will go straight to us and not FTC. I will add more content to our Twitch, Youtube, and other social media sites for FTC. Another thing is that we want to open a Patreon so that our fans can donate if they want to. Now, since we are so close to breaking away, I'm wondering if I should open a Patreon page now or after.
I'm always wanting to open one but Star says we have to wait to get out more content. What do you guys think? Would you help us on Patreon now or would you guys like to wait til later for me to add more content? Not only that. We know what other creators offer their patrons but since we are so different from most people, I don't know what we can offer.
I know there's things like merchandise, shoutouts, secret twitch streams, and other stuff. What do you think we should offer that will keep you guys coming back month after month? Thank you for your input!

This group has been established to:
- increase awareness of the teachings of Islam,
- challenge misinformation about Islam, especially by public authorities and the media, and
- analyse the influence of Islam on contemporary UK society.
Despite Islam, in one manifestation or another, dominating the news for over forty years, most non-Muslims would still struggle to provide an accurate quote from the Qur'an or to summarise the life of Mohammed. Serious evaluation of the obviously important influence of Islamic doctrine upon current affairs is almost completely absent from the discussion of them by politicians, journalists and academics in the mainstream media, with non-professional comment being increasingly censored from social media.
Proponents and opponents of Islam all too often project well-rehearsed but limited arguments from entrenched positions, with little meaningful exchange of ideas, and with reasonable concerns by the latter all too often dismissed out of hand as 'hate speech' and 'Islamophobia'.
One of the purposes of this site is to encourage a better informed and more fruitful discussion about the nature of Islam and the issues that the growth in its numbers and influence of inevitably raise.
Who wrote the Qur'an?
A wide-ranging review of the evidence concerning the origins of Islam including the oldest Qur'an manuscripts, the Qur'an's themes and source material, a stylometric analysis of the structure of the Qur'an, contemporary accounts and real evidence including inscriptions, coins and the qibla directions of supposedly early 'Islamic' buildings.
The Qur'an Reader's Companion
A comprehensive thematic guide to the content of the Qur'an.
The Qur'an as it was Reportedly Practised and Preached by Muhammad
A series of ten papers, each of which analyses in detail one of the Qur'an's most controversial instructions as it was reputedly practised and preached by Mohammed according to the traditional Islamic sources. Each includes:
- key Qur'an verses in multiple translations,
- all related verses,
- traditional accounts of the circumstances in which these verses were announced,
- traditional accounts of how these instructions were reportedly practised and preached by Mohammed, and
- an overview of their interpretation in classical Islamic commentaries and jurisprudence.
What is Islam?
An introduction to Islam, in particular addressing its consistency with the values of liberal, secular democracy UNDERGOING REVIEW.
Muslims in Britain
A survey of the ethnicity, demographic trends, confessional affiliation, polled opinions and tendency to segregation of Britain's Muslim community. It concludes with a warning of a likely future Muslim v non-Muslim conflict scenario in Britain if matters continue on their present course.
Simplified family tree of Mohammed's Meccan and Medinan wives
Simplified chart of Islamic Empires
The IRG supports the For Britain Movement, the only UK political party encouraging the honest discussion of Islam and prepared to directly oppose Islamic teachings that are incompatible with individual freedom, the rule of law and a tolerant and democratic society.

She was a dedicated educator who thought generations of students in the preschool of Beis Rivkah Montreal and was beloved by all her students.
"The decades of girls who she taught Alef-Beis, were encouraged by Morah Sharon to be curious learners and to appreciate Hashem's beautiful world," the school wrote in a statement, adding that "Morah Sharon was truly dedicated, setting an example, with her enthusiasm, care, and creativity. May Rus Bas Sarah be an advocate on high for her family and students."

Slideshow and conversation by the award-winning cartoonist, author and teacher Lynda Barry
doors at 6:30, (open seating, first come, first serve), signing to follow event
Ticket get you $5 off of PICTURE THIS
Praise for PICTURE THIS:
"Do not be deluded: despite the feel-good message, this is a book for people who like their whimsy black. Barry rejects milk-and-sugar sweetness for something stronger, richer, more complex."
About PICTURE THIS:
Lynda Barry singlehandedly created a literary genre all her own, the graphic-memoir-how-to, otherwise known as the bestselling, the acclaimed, but most importantly, the adored and the inspirational What It Is. The R.R. Donelley and Eisner Award-winning book posed, explored and answered the question "Do you think you can write"? Now with Picture This, Barry asks "Why do we stop drawing?" and "Why do we start?" It features the return of Barry's most beloved character, Marlys, and introduces a new one, the Nearsighted Monkey. Like What It Is, Picture This is an inspirational, take home extension of Barry's traveling, continually sold out, and sought after workshop, Writing The Unthinkable.

These sessions are added for riders to dip in and out of - either to complement your Winter Training programme, or to give you the option of doing parts of it.
As always when we introduce something new - if it's popular, we'll keep it - if it isn't, we won't!
WTP buddy riders
To add a bit of shenaniganation (yep, it's a word now), we're introducing buddy riders. Those who are in the WTP will be assigned a buddy and it is your task to amass as many MEPs as you can.
There will be challenges throughout the WTP - look out for them. They'll mostly be unpleasant.
WTP Awards
In the WTP we now are introducing the following awards:
Stayed tuned for more WTP news. Coming soon.

Listen To Actor Kurt Russell Own This Reporter On Gun Control
This article was written by Melissa Dykes and originally published at The Daily Sheeple
It's not like we should sit around as a society fawning over the stuff that comes out of actor's mouths, but when Kurt Russell owns a reporter on gun control in an interview, it's definitely worth a listen, if for nothing else than to remind us that not all actors are brainwashed puppets walking around mindlessly spewing the establishment agenda.
It was about the time Hollywood reporter Jeffery Wells went on to say that guns are a quote "metaphor that disenfranchised white guys need," that Russell put the guy in his place.
[ot-video type="youtube" url="https://youtu.be/UMbAU5C5Ra8″]
Transcript (via The Blaze):
"If you think gun control is going to change the terrorists' point of view, I think you're, like, out of your mind," he began. "I think anybody [who says that] is. I think it's absolutely insane."
"Dude, you're about to find out what I'm gonna do, and that's gonna worry you a lot more," the actor continued. "And that's what we need. That will change the concept of gun culture, as you call it, to something [like] reality. Which is, if I'm a hockey team and I've got some guy bearing down on me as a goal tender, I'm not concerned about what he's gonna do — I'm gonna make him concerned about what I'm gonna do to stop him. That's when things change."
Arguing back, Wells invoked the no-fly list, saying that the people on the list are there for a "good reason," but that they can allegedly still "get [a] hold of a gun pretty easily."
"They can also make a bomb pretty easily. So what?" Russell retorted. "They can also get knives and stab you. [What are you] gonna do about that? They can also get cars and run you over. [What are you] gonna do about that?"
What is Wells gonna do? I guess he is going to beg to have his guns taken away so he can be even more helpless against shooters and terrorists, then when one shows up, he will run and go hide in a closet and cower in fear waiting for the government authorities to come save him like the DHS active shooter guide suggests.
Wells tries to counter by mumbling something about "But the San Bernardino shooters…" But just… come on. What a big fat bag of logic fail.
The San Bernardino guns were purchased legally and the shooting itself happened where? That's right, in yet another gun-free zone. None of the gun control executive orders Obama is about to pass without congressional approval would have stopped what happened.
Banning people on the no-fly list from being able to purchase guns implies that A) terrorists actually wait to jump through legal loopholes to purchase firearms before committing acts of terror and B) that list is even accurate, considering it has been reported that there are even 18-month-old babies on there. But hey, if there's any silver lining to the fact that the 2nd Amendment is under further attack, at least then the 72 Department of Homeland Security employees on the terrorism watchlist won't be able to get their hands on a gun, either.
(That last bit was sarcasm.)
Russell, by the way, is a libertarian. He was quoted in the Toronto Sun in 1996 as saying: "I was brought up as a Republican, but when I realized that at the end of the day there wasn't much difference between a Democrat and Republican, I became a libertarian."

A bit about me and the ART of Change process….
Hello and thank you for calling by my page.
My name is Carol Omer I am an Artist, Writer and Certified Life Coach living in Adelaide, South Australia.
I am an Australian for Reconciliation and acknowledge that I am living and creating on traditional Aboriginal Land & pay my respects to the Kaurna people, the Elders and the Ancestors as the traditional owners of the Adelaide Plains.
My husband David Salomon and I own and operate Simply Splendid Productions and have recently launched the new documentary Two Brothers Walking in partnership with senior members of the Anangu and Kuku Yalanji Communities.
You can view the trailer here
I worked in homeless and domestic violence shelters and community health & human service settings for over 25 years and create women's personal development and life coaching art for relaxation, self reflection and fun!
I specialise in the Mandala art form & have facilitated the ART of Change, a creativity based life coaching program since 1997.
The ART of Change is delivered as both a one on one Life Coaching program and in group settings such as staff training, community centres and women's groups.
Mandala is a Sanskrit word meaning Circle & after reading Carl Jung's first hand experiences of the power of Mandala as a tool for healing and transformation I began to study them as a possible tool for my women's personal development programs. I quickly saw how the Mandala engages people on many levels as they generate restful thinking and deep breathing that is a form of open eyed meditation.
The Mandalas are portable, they can be coloured on long flights, on outdoor picnics or whilst propped up in bed on a sleep in day. Many women enjoy getting together for Saturday Crafternoons and colouring in a Talking circle, sharing food and stories.
My Vision is to create Mandalas that are meaningful, that make a difference in womens lives. I receive feedback that they have travelled into hospitals and cancer wards, accompanied women on retreats and during overseas travels and others have been shared between mothers and daughters who last sat down & created together many years ago.
I am honoured to create interactive art work that has been inspired by both ancient & contemporary traditions.
Indigenous cultures have used the circle as both a ceremonial & creative tool for thousands of years & contemporary psychology recognises life coaching as a significant tool for self development & goal setting.
The Big Girls Little Colouring Book has been designed to let our hands do the thinking and allow our mind to rest and play for awhile.
The Art of Change life coaching and staff development program takes hands on training to a new level.

I saw you on Powerful Intentions and felt compelled to go to your site. This is quite amazing for me, as I am reading about you and looking at your picture, I feel so much love and joy welling up inside me. I would be blessed to be your friend, and I am trusting my inner-love that I am contacting you for a reason, and I feel overcome by your love and beautiful self.
The only way I can put it, is that you feel like "home" to me. Like a mother.
Love, Genice

Hi Carol,
I remember fondly our time at Jean's workshop on the Mornington Peninsula and your gorgeous shining aura!
I'm still learning – up and down – and searching….that seems to be my fractal, that and the communicator – the Hermetic fractal that Jean talked about.
When I look back on the time that has passed I'm shocked at what I haven't achieved…but take comfort in the fact that it's a process, ongoing, never-ending….bless you for all the wonderful work you are doing, I just adore those river gums and would love to paint them!
Love, Marianne

Dear Carol,
I've been getting your emails etc through the social artistry network and am finding your work inspiring.I live in the Alice and at the moment I am observing as so far I do not know many Aboriginal people. Somehow I feel like an event waiting to happen as I have been working with Aboriginal Spirit for many years. I too have a passion for reconciliation both personal and cultural and aspire to a new dreaming where we connect through our land to each other in the depths of our soul. Lynne

Hi Carol,
You know who this is i been on the most amazing journey since i met you 6 years ago we havent spoken heaps but i am writing to let you know that you helped me to start to become a better person i am grateful for the way you have helped me in my life just one example that i want to tell you about is
when i was asked by you to write a poem about my aboriginal identity i looked in the thesaurus and found $100 i had stashed and forgotten about!
Next i was at a conference and someone asked a question which prompted me to recite the poem which i had in my head. This made a huge impression on my now executive director (big boss). I believe this experience had something to do with me obtaining my now current position. The third good thing which came from the poem was that it was published in the footprints in time longitudinal study, this is my first copyright which i am proud to have achieved all of this would have not been possible if i did not attend your courses and write the poem i thank you for being an important person in my life. You are someone who many people look up to including me. here is the link to the website with my poem on!! hopefully i will see you around the place soon!take care love Yanni

i have sub'd to your blog since i found it a while back through a google alert for mandala art.
most recently i have begun trying to understand sacred geometry just a little bit better. i know the mandorla as the vesica piscis. it is one of my favorite symbols and one that i feel whenever i come together with another and feel the power of spirit between us.
your intro, work and vision inspire me with possibilities. now let's make it happen one more step at a time.
many blessings,

Hi, I just saw your Prosperi-tree and I'd like to include it along with maybe a couple of your Vision Boards in my upcoming book THE VISIO BOARD by Harper Collins Publishing, Collins Design, fall, 2008. ALAS the deadline is in 5 days– for most of the pix So I need a 320 DPI picture of the Tree and the file should be at least 8 x 10 inches. I can send you a permission form. I'm glad to promote your other products/services and organization and to link to your site. There is a short video on my tep site http://www.ihaveavision.org. My other business is at http://www.joycecom.com. I am in Marina Del Rey, CA — the book will have 75-100 pix. And after we get the pix we can do a podcast with you via phone! Joyce Schwarz, author

Dear Carol:
I read "The Magical Child in Exile" and it has helped me to understand the child I had 45 years ago.
This could have been so helpful to him, me, his father, and the rest of our family. He was considered hyperactive and his family, teachers, and friends struggled to make sense of his behavior. Back then his middle name was, Don't.
How sad. The information I sought then boiled down to just give him love. Carol, you really need, or we need, you to write that book.
August 7, 2008 at 10.34
Dear Carol, You can see I have been reading on your website. Saw the depression one – you couldnt be more right. I spoke out against us going and was against the Vietnam war too. We just dont have any business telling other countries how to run their governments. Part of the fix it mentality. I am in the process of setting up my website now. My first one will be for Crystal Healing Jewelry and can I trade links with you even though you arent selling anything? I would so love it. Mystic Jane

Hi Carol
Great to find a website like this sourced in Adelaide when I was searching the world wide web(!) for info on art and memorialising women and childrens pain brought about by domestic violence and abuse. My passion is sculpture..mostly clay. I get frustrated that unless y ou work in the area or have been personally affected these women and children remain hidden until we hear of some terrible murder in the media. I work with UCW ..mainly with kids and women who have experienced abuse. I would love to chat with you about your ideas and experience
October 29, 2008 at 10.34
Greetings Carol,
I love the Vision Statement painting. Says it all. And thank you for the work (from the bubbling enthusiasm that is obvious in your words, I'm not certain the term "work" would apply), the empowerment, you and your team are effecting in the lives of so many. Bless you.

Hi Carol
This is a personal contact.I am a blast from your past!
I used to be Susanne Gray and was priveleged along with you to spend two years with the best teacher in the world-Rod Kemp.
I am committed to Reconciliation and work for The Salvation Army in The Riverland as a Program Facilitator and Support,working with Families who are homeless.I currently run a program called 'Lets Live'which is a Reconcilaition project working with Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal women together who have issues of Homelessness.We are using weaving as a medium to teach other life skills and provide an access point for Service Providers; mainly Health, to improve the lives of people who are marginalised.
Interstingly it appears we have a lot in common in regard to our love of Our First Peoples.
I have fond memories of you Carol and it was a lovely surprise to be sent an email in regard to you.35 years later here we are!
kindest regards
November 13, 2009 at 10.34
hey Carolom,
I found you by browsing the oprah website and really like your view on the ego. I was wondering if I could ask you some questions regarding your view perhaps on facebook or through email. firstname.lastname@example.com
thank you I would really appreacite it. you seem to be such a wonderful person I would love to gain some wisdom from you. I do acknowledge that you are probably really busy. but it would be cool to chat.

Hi Carol,
Last year I completed my Social Work placement at Enfield Primary Health Care. As a part of my placement I observed your 'Art of Change' group for women with anxiety and depression. We made empowerment necklaces and Mandalas. I thought it was a great workshop for women who struggle with different issues in their life and gives them a real sense of empowerment.
I have a friend who is going through a rough time at the moment and I was interested in knowing if you have any workshops coming up in the near future as I think she would benefit from your Art of Change womens group workshop.
If you could email me and let me know it would be much appreciated. Either at my work email jessica********* or my personal email le*********u
Kind Regards

I wish I knew more people personally like yourself and the people that enjoy you perspective. I stumbled upon this looking for possibly people who connect with clouds. Some people shack there head at me and some give a curious notion but Ive truely never met anyone that can see and truely interact with clouds as I do. I dont let people sway my reality one bit. Reminds me of a verse of a song from the band "Rush". It goes like this;
Those who wish to see
Must put aside the alienation
Get on with the facination
The real relation
The underlying theme…….Yup, I like that!!
August 29, 2012 at 10.34
Hello Carol,
Hoping to get a contact number so I may discuss use of one of your images for a local health Centre dealing with women's health of all cultures. Please send any contact information so I may discuss this with you. Kind Regards

Plans for a 135-unit apartment building in Nashville's Music Row area were halted this evening (Thursday, February 12), after the Metro Planning Commission indefinitely deferred a zoning change request.
The vote resulted in the commission recommending halting all rezoning requests in the Music Row area for the next 12 to 18 months.
The commission recommended that the Metro Planning Department complete a study of all of the Music Row area, so redevelopment proposals in the Music Row area can be treated in a uniform fashion.
The zoning change had been requested by Brad Daniel and Gary Belz, in a pitch to redevelop in the 1200 block of 16th Ave. near Edgehill Village.
Historic Nashville, Inc., as well as the Edgehill Village Neighborhood Association, opposed the rezoning request.

Dom Perignon Brut Champagne 2008
Gift Box is NOT included with this itemDom Perignon only creates vintage wines; it is an absolute commitment. Only the best grapes of the most exceptional years are used, making each vintage distinct. It is the perfect embodiment of the Power of Creation – an act of creation that elevates the mind and enlightens the world.
The icon of the house, it showcases perfect equilibrium, revealing the harmony that is so characteristic of Dom Perignon. The wine is complete, rhythmic and tactile.
Dom Perignon Vintage 2009 is exotic: its tactile thickness, its roundness, and its utterly unique depth of flavor.
|Wine Spectator: 96
|Theres a subtle power to this graceful Champagne, which boasts a firm, crystalline frame of acidity married to the fine, satinlike mousse and notes of white raspberry, brioche and Earl Grey tea. Seamless through to the long finish of smoke and spice accents, this opens beautifully in the glass. Drink now through 2029.
|Decanter: 96
|Unbroken sun through August and early September helped to shape an idyllic harvest, on 12th September. Superb maturity of fruit in flawless health has produced a wine with wafting scents of both fresh and confit of spiced lemon and wild cherry. Despite the heat, the wine has freshness, vitality and length. Still a youngster, this will grow greatly by 2019. A more stylish son of the '03, and cousin of the slender and charming '06. Disgorged June 2016.
|James Suckling: 97
|This is a DP that shows the ripeness of the 2009 vintage yet remains full of energy. Gorgeous aromas of cream, apple, mango, honeysuckle, and chalk follow through to a full body and super fine, tight texture. Dense and agile. Vinous. Its like a top grand cru white Burgundy. Think Batard-Montrachet. More depth than the 2006.

Omar held this position for over four years, managing the Congressman's Washington D.C., and district operations and closely counseling the Congressman in his areas of expertise which include federal appropriations, health care, transportation, higher education and issues dealing with Hispanics and the state of Florida. During his tenure, Omar was granted Top Secret security clearance by the U.S. Department of Defense and assisted in founding the Congressional Hispanic Conference and the Congressional Hispanic Leadership Institute.
In 2007, Omar joined Petrizzo Strategic Group where he was the lead government relations consultant for the Miccosukee Tribe of Florida, Stratus Pharmaceuticals, Pacer Health, FalconTrust Air, Florida Gulf Coast University, Secure Wrap, Medica HealthCare Plans, and the municipalities of Hialeah, Miami Lakes and North Bay Village. He also worked on federal issues for CNL Financial Group, Vulcan, Inc., Charter Communications and Frontier Communications, among others.
Omar founded Franco Government Relations in 2010 where he represented the Miccosukee Tribe of Florida, Florida Gulf Coast University, and the Town of Miami Lakes and continues representing the municipalities of Hialeah, North Bay Village and Hialeah Gardens.
Omar began his government service in 1993 as the District Legislative Assistant for Florida State Representatives Art Simon (Democrat) and Annie Betancourt (Democrat) and then Florida State Senator Mario Diaz-Balart (Republican). He also worked as a Field Office Director for the Florida Medical Association before joining the University of Miami.
- Omar works with many Hispanic organizations that promote diversity and look to offer a voice to Hispanics in Washington and the country. Omar currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Hispanic Lobbyist Association (HLA) where he is its immediate past President and former Treasurer and he also serves as the Vice-Chair of the Corporate Advisory Board of the Congressional Hispanic Leadership Institute (CHLI). He was awarded a U.S. Speaker and Specialist grant by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Information Programs to participate in a program on the 2012 U.S. Presidential Elections and the U.S. Electoral Process in Chile and Paraguay. Because of his work on numerous Hispanic issues, he was named by Latino magazine as a Power Player for 2013. Omar was nominated by Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) to serve on the advisory committee of the U.S. Senate Republican Task Force on Hispanic Affairs and in 2019, was appointed to the Chairman's Advisory Council of Friends of the National Museum of the American Latino, an advocacy group that strives to create a museum highlighting the richness and diversity of the American Latino experience.
- Named Secretary of the Board of Directors for The Latino Coalition (2019)

Stator (RPM)
This sensor tells the computer engine rotation. But it's a lot more than just a tachometer, it is souly responsible for three aspects of rotation:
•Revolutions per minute – engine speed and acceleration
•Cylinder identification – which cylinder needs spark and fuel next
•Crankshaft / Camshaft position – when valves are opened and closed
The stator is a "Hall Effect devise," which uses a magnetic field. It sits under the distributor cap and picks up a signal from a wheel with teeth. The wheel has the same number of teeth as cylinders in the engine and moves at the same speed as the distributor and camshaft. If you have a V8 then the wheel has eight teeth; seven teeth are the same and one tooth is smaller to identify cylinder #1.
As the wheel spins with the distributor is breaks the magnetic field of the hall devise generating a sine wave. This sine wave is called the raw Profile Ignition Pickup (PIP) signal and indicates the engine status at 10°BTDC. Now some people think the TFI is responsible for this, but that is incorrect; the PIP signal passes threw the TFI unaltered to the computer.
This sensor is so accurate that cam changes can be a bad thing. The computer is programmed when to open fuel injectors in relation to the valve timing from PIP. Changing the valve timing with a cam swap won't be noticed by the computer. So optimal performance and idle will not be to their true potential.
As I've said on other pages this sensor is extremely important. Without it working properly the computer never senses the engine moving and the entire vehicle is a paper weight. If you have a distributor mounted TFI, it too can be the problem, because the PIP signal must pass through it to the computer. The stator and TFI both share the same grounds and power circuits, when one fails the other might be bad as well. It's a standard practice at dealerships and most quality repair shops to replace the TFI and stator at the same time. This prevents the problem from re-appearing a few weeks latter.

Domain names identify a website (for example, www.atlanticbt.com). Domain names like yours are registered with Domain Registrars and are renewed every year.
Atlantic BT manages domain names for most of our clients using eNom.com as our registrar. If we manage your domain name, we have set up a policy that will automatically renew your domain name a month before the registration expires. This ensures you will never lose your chosen domain name for your company. You will always receive an invoice after this renewal, so you do not have to take any steps on your end to make sure you keep your domain name.
Some of our clients have chosen not to be on an automatic renewal schedule. We alert these clients via email at least 30 days in advance of their domain expiring to make sure they want to continue owning that domain name. If they reply that they want to keep it, we will then renew their domain manually and send them an invoice. If the client replies letting us know they do not need that domain name any more, we will let it expire and they will no longer receive a bill for that domain name registration.
If we do not manage your domain name registration, you will need to make sure your Domain Registrar keeps your domain registration current.
If you decide you no longer require a domain name which we manage for you, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or fill out a cancellation form at www.atlanticbt.com/cancel-services. Once we receive your cancellation request, we will make sure your domain name will not be renewed. We will then let you know when the domain name will expire and that it will not be renewed. You will have until the domain name expires to reverse the decision, just in case.


text: Our middle school youth group provides our youth with a safe and sacred space to ask questions, talk about real and challenging topics, do important and impactful hands on mission and outreach to our local and international mission partners, bond with each other through fun and fellowship events, and just "be" with each other. We are a great combination of fun, fellowship, mission, discussion, adventure, and that very needed space to unplug and just be in each other's presence, to catch up, and to talk. The highlights of our year are the 30 Hours of Hunger Awareness, the Ski Trip, our mission work for Special Church, and our summer mission trip.


text: I just wanted to let everyone know about a fun project we are beginning at Black Knight Games. I will be making a show table for Flames of War! The table will have a European village on the one side, and farmland on the rest of it. With Flames of War gaining in popularity in the store, our current FoW terrain options aren't cutting it. So keep your eyes peeled for the new table as we create it. We also plan on posting work in progress pictures as well as a video on how the table was made.

The number '18' has great significance in Judaism, its numeric value representing the word 'Chai'. So essentially 2018 is 'the year of life'! Throughout the year Mensch will be promoting 18 ways to live and celebrate a more meaningful life. How to help change the world, and ourselves, through small and manageable acts of giving. Read more about our next two: SUPPORT YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS and MAKE YOURSELF HEARD, and share your efforts with those around you!
SUPPORT YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. You know how it feels to have someone believe in you more than you believe in yourself. Be a cheerleader for the important people in your life. The world needs stronger relationships.
MAKE YOURSELF HEARD Don't be afraid to speak out about your concerns and opinions. Use your voice to influence and educate others on important issues. Do this in a creative and encouraging way aimed at inclusion rather than alienation. Mensch can help by featuring an article written by you in our Newsletter, entitled 'Voices from the Community'. Simply send your article to email@example.com
PAY IT FORWARD! Random good deeds are pleasant surprises. You have no idea how it affects other people, especially those who aren't used to being treated that way. More than how it makes the people you help feel, you might even start a ripple with your intentional generosity and helpfulness. Post your Pay it Forward experiences to our Facebook page
CONNECT BY DISCONNECTING! Devices are here to stay, they are a part of our lives, they open our world and have incredible advantages. However, if we do not manage how we engage with them, we risk losing out on all that face-to-face connection has to offer. Mensch member and parent coach, Laura Markovitz shares, "when we distractedly juggle talking to our kids while texting or scrolling through a Facebook feed, we send a message that someone or something else is more important than what our kids are telling us, we role model disconnection". Keep a note of how your relationships and parenting improves, the more time you make to 'disconnect'. Share this impact.

Two of the SolutionInc co-op students sit down and talk about life at SolutionInc as the soon-to-be new additions to the work force.
Tag: Support
WiFi Challenges in Vacation Rentals
Arriving in downtown Toronto was an amazing experience for me as I have not been there before and was very excited to see the night skyline. I must say, Toronto did not disappoint as the views were spectacular. In the city for business, I was lucky enough to have friends who live in Mississauga so they were happy to show me around and get me to my vacation rental.
Student Life with SolutionInc
As a university student at Acadia University, I heavily rely on WiFi and Internet connectivity to efficiently and easily manage my study routine. For my first two years at Acadia I lived on residence, where I spent most my time studying and hanging out with friends. Both of these activities mean that I made a lot of use of the WiFi on campus, such as having access to class resources and competing in very competitive Mario kart tournaments. The quality of WiFi in residence differed from the quality of WiFi in the academic buildings. The academic buildings like the library and classrooms had very consistent and good quality WiFi. This is most likely due to the fact that most academic buildings have very large open areas allowing there to be less interference than in residence buildings. WiFi in residence was not bad, although it had its moments where disconnects would happen and the quality/speed would fluctuate. This was likely caused by the high density of the buildings (lots of rooms close together, floors, people and a high concentration of devices). Access Points (APs) at Acadia residences are mounted on the ceiling in public hallways, along with Ethernet port interfaces in each room allowing for a wired connection. Having APs in each room would have made the WiFi experience much smoother and more enjoyable while in residence. Also having my own Personal Area Network (PAN) to manage my devices would've been great – something that I've learned about at SolutionInc.
VRMA Attendee Recap
We attended the Vacation Rental Management Association International Show (VRMA) this year and had an excellent time at the trade show MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Being our first time attending and exhibiting, we really weren't too sure what to expect. Here we explain the top 3 pillars that we took away from our current and potential customers at this show:
Impact of being a global company
It is no secret that when you become a global organization, your business changes significantly. In today's market, it can be difficult to be successful while only servicing customers locally or even nationally; going global is almost a requirement. We've been a global company for many years working in the Internet and network fields for more than twenty years. I'm old enough to remember the first computer that my friend had and the most amazing games ever – pong and frogger! But it's otherwise hard for me to remember a time without consistent WiFi access and google in the palm of my hand. And the reality is that many parts of the world still aren't caught up to North American standards of connectivity.

7 Subtle Signs That You're Healthy
1. Relatively Clear, Copious Urine
If you're peeing a few times a day and it's pale yellow—not cloudy, dark, or super-concentrated—that means that you're adequately hydrated and your kidneys are healthy. Completely colorless urine, however, indicates that you may be over-hydrated, and while that's not as problematic as being dehydrated, it could mean that you're losing valuable salts and electrolytes.
2. Regular, Well-Formed Bowel Movements
Yes, it all comes down to poop. Normal feces comes in many different shapes, sizes, and colors, but as long as yours isn't bloody, loose, or painfully hard, you're probably okay. Being regular is another good indicator of relative health; when your body is processing solid waste quickly and efficiently, it shows that there's adequate fiber in your diet and your digestive system is working properly.
3. Stable Weight
Assuming you're not grossly underweight or morbidly obese, a relatively stable weight is a sign of good health. Significant unexplained gains and losses or yo-yoing back and forth on diets are causes for concern.
4. Quick Wound Healing
If you find that small cuts, scrapes, or burns take a very long time to heal or if you experience unexplained bruising from light pressure, see a doctor. If you don't, congratulations! Your blood is clotting normally, your white cells are carrying away bacteria, and your blood vessels are healthy. You're doing alright.
5. Healthy Hair and Nails
The integumentary system (which includes hair and nails) is often the first place that a serious vitamin deficiency shows up. This shortage can cause weak, deformed fingernails and toenails and hair that falls out in clumps. If your hair's biggest problems are frizziness or split ends, then it's more or less healthy.
6. Regular Menstrual Periods
Regular periods with normal premenstrual symptoms are one of the best indicators that your reproductive system is healthy. Irregular, painful periods and excessive or prolonged bleeding are symptoms that should be checked out by a doctor.
7. Decent Sleep
True, most of us don't get quite as much sleep as we should, and occasional insomnia is considered normal. But as long as you're sleeping through the night on a regular basis and not experiencing night sweats or being awakened repeatedly by the urge to urinate, you're probably hitting all the necessary sleep rhythms. And if you're generally waking up feeling at least moderately refreshed, things are looking good.
It should go without saying that the absence of these signs can mean hundreds of different things and can signify dozens of different problems—or sometimes nothing at all—and a doctor is the only one who can say for sure.
