Author(s): COLLINS Paul
With the start of every bushfire season and the first threatening hints of burning eucalypt in the air, we are reminded, no matter where we live, that bushfire is an inescapable reality in Australia. In Burn, Paul Collins tells the epic story of bushifire in Australia, drawing on accounts of the most devastating conflagrations in Australia's European history - from the 1851 Black Thursday fire (which burnt out one-quarter of Victoria), to the 1939 Black Friday fires (which took many lives and destroyed thousands of hectares in Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and Tasmania), the Canberra inferno of 2003, and Black Saturday of February 2009. Frightening, compelling, vivid, and provocative, Burn reveals the stories of heroism, stupidity, political incompetence, and environmental vandalism. This is the grand narrative of bushfire in Australia, the most fire-prone land on Earth.

Highlighting Text
We've all used a highlighter pen at some point or another. Maybe it was when studying for an exam or going through a contract. Whatever the case, you used the highlighter to mark key words or phrases that were relevant to a task.
HTML5 replicates this with the new mark element. Think of mark like a semantic version of a highlighter pen. In other words, what's important is that you're noting certain words; how they appear is irrelevant. Style its text with CSS as you please (or not at all), but use mark only when it's pertinent to do so.
No matter when you use mark, it's to draw the reader's attention to a particular text segment. Here are some use cases for it:
- To highlight a search term when it appears in a search results page or an article. When people talk about mark, this is the most common context. Suppose you used a site's search feature to look for "solar panels." The search results or each resulting article could use solar panels to highlight the term throughout the text.
- To call attention to part of a quote that wasn't highlighted by the author in its original form ( and ).
Although mark may see its most widespread use in search results, here's another valid use of it. The phrase "15 minutes" was not highlighted in the instructions on the packaging. Instead, the author of this HTML used mark to call out the phrase as part of the story. Default browser rendering of mark text varies .
...
So, I went back and read the instructions myself to see what I'd done wrong. They said:

Remove the tray from the box. Pierce the overwrap several times with a fork and cook on High for
15 minutes, rotating it half way through.

I thought he'd told me fifty. No wonder it exploded in my microwave.

Browsers with native support of the mark element display a yellow background behind the text by default. Older browsers don't, but you can tell them to do so with a simple rule in your style sheet (see the tips).
- To draw attention to a code fragment ( and ).
This example uses mark to draw attention to a segment of code.

It's bad practice to use a class name that
describes how an element should look, such as the highlighted portion of CSS below:
.greenText {
color: green;
This code noted with mark is called out.
To highlight text
- Type .
- Type the word or words to which you want to call attention.
- Type .

Jensen Karp is a true master of all trades. Perhaps you don't know him by name, but surely you have come across his work. He's recorded hip hop albums under the name Hot Karl. He's the creative director for Michael Cera's YouTube channel JASH. He is an art gallery owner and operator – and was the brain child behind Jerry O'Connell's #iamsorrytoo exhibit (remember when Shia LaBeouf first started riding the crazy train?). Karp is a writer, direct, producer, and podcaster, with content featured everywhere – Smodcast, Rolling Stone, Earwolf, Funny or Die, and the list goes on. On top of it all, Kayne West owes him $300.
With a CV this robust, it is no surprise that Karp spent time working in the sports entertainment industry, spending time as a writer for the WWE in 2006. After his gig ended with the squared circle, Karp fell away from professional wrestling, both in a career and as a fan. However, Rolling Stone recelynt debuted his latest work which brought together his knowledge and love for wrestling in a genuinely enduring project.
"Rudy and Des" is a short documentary about two friends who love wrestling. The unique angle to the story of the doc, is that Des is blind and can only experience the in-ring action through Rudy's play-by-play announcing. Financing the film by himself, and utilizing the help of producers (and all-around really good humans) Scott Mosier and Zak Knutson, Karp's short documentary about friendship and wrestling hits the heart strings like a German suplex.
In general, wrestling fans are both the best and the worst. We are the most passionate and intensely-loyal fan base out there. We are also the most bitter and back-biting bunch when the product doesn't meet our standards or go as we think it should. "Rudy and Des" is a beautiful homage to the wrestling fan in all of us; the fan who loves the product for the sheer fun, entertainment, and joy of in-ring story telling.
Despite having a book release next month and all the work that goes along with the launch of any major product release, Jensen Karp graciously took time to answer a few questions.
Trent: Jensen, thanks for taking the time to answer a few questions about "Rudy and Des."
Jensen: Thank you for watching it!
Trent: You first met Rudy and Des at a Pro Wrestling Guerilla show. How long ago was that?
Jensen: I had been going to PWG shows since 2010, but I first encountered Rudy and Des there in 2012. I can't believe I never heard Rudy announcing before that, but I think this one event I ended up running late to, so I stand in the back, instead of get a seat. The events weren't selling out online yet, but it usually filled up by the first match.
Trent: At what point in your relationship with the two of them did you think to make "Rudy and Des?"
Jensen: Literally right away. I put two and two together, figuring out their friendship, and imagined the short before I even spoke to them. I got in touch with them through Excalibur, an owner and announcer for PWG, and we had lunch together a few days later. I pitched them the concept right away and they were into it. It probably took them a few weeks to realize I wasn't a creep though.
Trent: Did you have friends growing up like Rudy and Des who were really into wrestling?
Jensen: Absolutely. I grew up in the Hulk heyday, so it was hard to find a boy who wasn't into WWF. My best friend Chris and I basically are able to recall memories based on which Pay-Per-Views I watched at his house that year. It's our benchmark for childhood. And we've been going to live events together since we graduated high school.
Trent: Rudy and Des mention how much they admire Jim Ross (and were obviously blown away when they met him). You had the chance to work in the trenches with some of the greats when you wrote for WWE. Who/what inspired you to make the jump from fan to professional?
Jensen: It's a weird answer, but growing up I worked at a summer camp in my hometown and there was a counselor, he couldn't have been older than 19, who told Chris and I that he applied to write for the WWE. I don't think he even got a callback, but the idea that we knew someone who even took that leap, a job that clearly was my dream job, inspired me. I remembered that conversation so vividly and when I had the opportunity to apply, he was the first dude I thought of. He kind of made me realize it's what I would want to do, even if once I got there I quickly realized it wasn't for me. But professionally, I was definitely inspired by the film Beyond The Mat, and seeing what people like Vince Russo, Bruce Pritchard, Paul Heyman and Vince McMahon do to get the product on the air.
Trent: I've had jobs where seeing how the sausage was made ended up disassociating me with why I wanted the job in the first place. What made you fall back in love with wrestling?
Jensen: It was PWG. I hadn't really watched wrestling in years. I would pick up headlines here or there, learning about someone returning or a new champ, but outside of Wrestlemania I maybe watched 6 hours of new wrestling a year. A friend, Chad, told me about PWG, and he knew I'd be skeptical. He guaranteed me that I'd love it, so I gave it a shot back in 2010. That night I saw The Young Bucks, Kevin Steen, El Generico and so many more INCREDIBLE wrestlers. The room felt so positive and funny. It was a community, while my experience at WWE was literally the exact opposite. I fell in love with that they were doing immediately and have been a mainstay at shows since.
Trent: It's an awesome time to be a wrestling fan. While there are only a few options for viewing wrestling on television, there are more opportunities and avenues to see alternate, independent, and international promotions than ever before. What promotions and talent are you digging right now?
Jensen: I mean, I'm pretty much PWG to the core. But they share so much talent with ROH [Ring of Honor], so I appreciate what they're doing, and they were so fun to include in the doc. And NXT is clearly a great example of Hunter [Triple H] being inspired by what he sees happening in these rooms. But my guys are all pretty obvious – The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Chris Hero, Adam Cole, Dalton Castle, Owens, Sami Zayn, Shinsuke.
Trent: What do you see in the future for Rudy and Des?
Jensen: I mean, I just want people to see them. I think if Rudy wants to be an announcer, he has so much of the talent and drive at such a young age. He's so much more progressed than I was at 19 (which is how old he was when we shot the doc). And Des is going to conquer the world. I don't need to help him with predictions. Nothing is going to stop that kid.
Trent: What advice have you passed on to the two of them?
Jensen: I'm not sure they need any advice from me. They are both such straight arrow great kids. I knew I HAD to make this, even without any real plan for it or way to make my money back. I just wanted to make it and spotlight them. We've talked about my time in wrestling a little and I gave them some advice about that, but it's more just very small specific things about what I experienced. They have their lives together way more than I did at their age, or even at 30.
Trent: Are we going to see more wrestling-centric projects from you in the future?
Jensen: There's one thing I've been developing for a few years that has a lot of moving parts. If it goes away forever, then this is just a throw away answer. If it comes together, it will be monumental. Who knows?
Trent Hunsaker is a podcaster and pop culturalist based in Logan, Utah.

What are the benefits of regular exercise?
What are the benefits of regular exercise?
Did you know that there are many Benefits of Regular Exercise? Such as drinking a lot of water ,reducing your risk of cancer and last is Improving your mental health.
Firstly Do you ever just get sick of drinking a lot of water? Well I can relate because as much as I don't want to drink it I should always think of my health and what could happen if I drink more soda and only like a glass of water a day or hardly ever. Well do you know how much water you should be drinking a day . Well listen here you have many different opinions on how much you can be drinking everyday health authorities commonly recommend eight 8-ounce glasses, which equals about 2 liters, or half a gallon. This is called the 8×8 rule and is very easy to remember.
Secondly Do you want to have cancer ? Well I'm guessing from a mile away that your answer is a no because I know for a fact that no one will want to have cancer . Well if you keep reading you have a high chance of finding out what to do to reduce your risk of cancer . Things you can do is Exercise regularly , Eat a healthy diet ,Avoid tobacco, and if your a person that drinks PLEASE!!! Limit the alcohol , because your trying to make it better not worse .My personal opinion/tips is having hand sanitizer to wash your hands after you touch things and also having your own water bottle and I also think you shouldn't be sharing or using people's things until you know for sure that your done with the treatment and you know you're good to go
Lastly do you want to Improve your mental health ? Well I have recently done research and I found out that if you Exercise do something for someone else I'm sure it will make you feel better and you also opening up to someone it could help you get things off your chest you can't forget your sleep , your sleep is like important because if you don't get that much sleep you'll be frustrated or irritated at like the smallest thing the next day and I'm writing from experience and I'm telling you now it's the worse thing to feel for like most of your day .
There are so many benefits of regular exercise and that was only three I talked about so if you are wanting to find out more then feel free to do some research to be honest I enjoyed doing research it was fun finding out new things . If you are also wondering if it works I encourage you to at least try some of the thing I have explain . like for example if your getting frustrated or irritated it show you have been working to hard and you also need to rest a bit more get your sleep to help you throughout your days and also your week .

Arooga's is celebrating a revised menu with a 50%-off all menu items event on Monday, June 19, 2017 from 11 am to 9 pm at all 10 of its Central Pennsylvania locations as well as its franchised restaurants in Uncasville CT and Warwick RI.
This is the second menu launch since January 2016, when Arooga's reiterated its focus on healthy, wholesome and organic ingredients and new vegetarian options. Guests will continue to see the same signature items such as Arooga's Crab and Buffalo Pretzels, its delicious Wagyu Burger line-up and its award-winning wings. Arooga's is also adding popular limited time offer items such as Fish Tacos and IPA-infused brats.
"None of our guests' favorites are going anywhere. After listening to our guests, we wanted to trim down the menu a bit to keep all of the most popular items and add a couple of new creations such as our Turkey Rachel and Beer Battered Banana Pepper Rings," said Arooga's co-founder and president Gary Huether, Jr. "The only thing better than Arooga's is Arooga's at half-price and we wanted to treat our guests during the relaunch as they enjoy the best of our best."
Along with the new menu, Arooga's is also unveiling a new look. They've retired their famous referee stripes in favor of more casual t-shirts and jeans. Arooga's partnered with the guys at Hop Hedz Gear/Kollision Media, an apparel company local to Harrisburg, to design and produce the new uniform line for their corporate and franchise locations.
"As an upcoming local graphic design business, Kollision Media takes great pride in working with other local and successful companies like Arooga's," said Bartley Kamiski, owner and creative director of Kollision Media. "We specialize in expanding the unique brand and concept of a growing business through cutting-edge design and production. It has been a pleasure working with the Arooga's staff to bring that vision to life with the design and production of their new uniforms."
Since opening its first restaurant in Harrisburg, PA in 2008, Arooga's has strived to offer its guests the ultimate sports bar experience by offering the latest trends in technology and service, and has also paved the way for sports bars everywhere to offer guests healthy dining alternatives by sourcing clean ingredients that are free of antibiotics and hormones, and in many cases certified organic. Arooga's began franchising in 2014 and in addition to 10 corporate locations in Central Pennsylvania, Arooga's currently has four franchise locations in operation, with locations in Florida and Massachusetts currently under development.
Arooga's offer of 50% off all menu items is available June 19 from 11 am to 9 pm at all Arooga's locations except North Plainfield, NJ and Patchogue, NY. The offer is for dine-in only and is valid toward regularly priced items from the new dining menu only and excludes limited time offers, daily specials or featured items. The offer cannot be applied toward beverage or alcohol purchases and a beverage must be purchased to be eligible for the discount. Other restrictions may apply.
Arooga's Grille House & Sports Bar is an innovative full-service casual restaurant and bar with a sports and entertainment focus that combines exceptional food and beverages, with unique concepts, and proprietary operational strategies. Arooga's Grille House & Sports Bar was founded in July 2008, and currently has franchise agreements for nearly 100 locations in the Eastern U.S. Arooga's offers franchising opportunities for their "unique sports and entertainment restaurant & bar" concept to qualified multi-unit candidates.

New Platform plays – putting young women centre stage
We are proud and excited to announce the launch of two brand new plays in the Platform series by Tonic Theatre:
The Glove Thief by Beth Flintoff
Red by Somalia Seaton
Developed in partnership between Tonic Theatre and Nick Hern Books, Platform aims to address the underrepresentation of women on stage by increasing the opportunities for girls and young women. Tonic's research has shown that 75% of youth-theatre groups describe their membership as having more girls than boys, or being entirely female. Despite this, youth-theatre leaders say they struggle to find scripts with enough female roles to accommodate them.
Platform seeks to address this mismatch by offering new, big-cast plays, specifically for young people, with predominantly or all-female casts. They're scripts that put young women at the heart of the action, and are full of rich, complex characters they'll love to play. The first three plays in the series were launched in 2015 and have seen productions around the world, offering exciting new opportunities to hundreds of young women (and young men!).
We're excited to announce that the two new Platform plays are available to buy and perform from 9 November 2017. We are offering to send up to three titles to you on approval for 30 days, so you can have a read before you commit.
We hope you enjoy reading and staging these excellent plays!

The folks at EZDebate.com invited me to participate in an online debate! The questions they asked are:
1.) The cost of housing is skyrocketing, what can be done to make homes affordable for younger Americans?
2.) Which Presidential candidate best represents the ideals of the Democrat party?
3.) Democrats are effective at raising awareness for Global warming, but are we dropping the ball when it comes to addressing pollution?
4.) How should we reform immigration?
5.) Other than the issues already discussed, what is the most important issue facing Colorado and CD7?
Watch this video to see what I had to say!
The political revolution inspired by Bernie Sanders has been happening for a few years now and, as of today, that revolution includes The Rose Caucus – a political organization formed by dozens of socialist candidates (and their campaigns) – including my own – to cultivate political power nationwide.
I truly believe that this is the most beautiful and inspirational development of this election cycle. It's the direct result of ordinary people realizing that we have the power to change the world – people from throughout the nation rising up and fighting to restore honesty, integrity, and character to our political system.
I'm incredibly honored to be a part of such a passionate, diverse, and talented group of individuals who are committed to taking a stand against the corporate control and systemic injustice that ripples throughout our society. We all have wildly different backgrounds, life experiences, and perspectives… but today we have come together as a unified voice demanding a better future – not only for all Americans, but for the entire world.
This week we're talking about how the booming Wall Street economy of the 2010s still left Main Street behind, the quickly approaching Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary, Trump almost starting World War 3, and all of the amazing people who came out to protest for peace and diplomacy.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"In the 2010s, America completed its evolution into a truly late-stage capitalist society. It was a decade without a single month of economic recession and a decade in which the United States grew to its wealthiest point ever. In fact, our society is currently witnessing the longest economic expansion in the modern history of our nation – with the S&P tripling in value and corporate profits soaring throughout the last decade – US businesses are entering 2020 sitting on a massive $2 TRILLION dollar pile of cash.
The 2010s showed with unprecedented clarity how a booming Wall Street economy can still leave Main Street behind. The entire decade was evidence that a society built for bankers, insurance companies, weapons manufacturers, and other huge corporations will not work for the middle class and the poor. Even during times of unrivaled economic prosperity, the wealthy people who already own essentially everything will still be willing to start wars and crush entire generations to take even more."
Did you miss the December Democratic Debate this week? Looking for a good recap? My campaign has you covered! We made a 30-minute highlight video containing some of the most interesting and candid moments from every candidate.
No commentary. No moderators. No commercials. Just candidates.
If you'd like to skip around to your favorite candidates, here's the order they appear in and the time that their sections begin:
1.) Bernie Sanders: 0:03
2.) Joe Biden: 6:22
3.) Elizabeth Warren: 9:37
4.) Andrew Yang: 13:13
5.) Pete Buttigieg: 18:25
6.) Tom Steyer: 22:35
7.) Amy Klobuchar: 26:26
This week we're talking about Donald Trump becoming the third US president to be impeached by the House, Nancy Pelosi giving Senate Republicans a taste of their own medicine by delaying delivery of the impeachment articles, rising tensions within the Democratic primary, the realities of Mayor Pete's "Wine Cave" fundraiser, and my response to the moderate/centrist Democrats who tell me that "supporting Bernie Sanders will hurt me politically and make it less likely that I'll be elected."
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"At first, I thought they might be a Republican, but then they told me they had worked on Hillary Clinton's campaign, they had worked for the Democratic Party, and they were "incredibly disappointed at my support for Senator Sanders." So, I told them what I tell every moderate/centrist Democrat: "get used to being disappointed" because I don't care if supporting Bernie Sanders hurts me politically. He's offering real solutions to the exploitation, racism, and greed that dominates not only our healthcare system – but every segment of our society and economy. He has solutions for healthcare, education, the environment, income inequality, the criminal justice system, and so many other big issues that have been plaguing our society for decades.
Unlike the vast majority of moderate or centrist candidates within the Democratic Party – I will stand up for what I believe in, even if it costs me votes. I'm not gonna make compromises with corporations on people's healthcare or protecting our environment because it makes it more likely that I'll be elected. That is exactly what has been wrong with our political system and politicians for my entire life – and it's why I'm proud to say that I support Senator Bernie Sanders for President – even if it costs me votes."
This week we're breaking down the details of the articles of impeachment filed against Trump, expressing dismay that one of those articles isn't for emoluments clause violations, discussing the predictably immature response from House Republicans, criticizing the disastrous 2020 NDAA, and celebrating Kentucky's new governor restoring voting rights to over 140,000 former felons.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"To most intelligent, objective observers – there's no question that Trump is guilty of all of the charges the Democrats have laid out. However, the Republicans in Congress are neither intelligent nor objective and have spent the entire week distracting, deceiving, and shouting down any information that challenges their incredibly fragile worldview. These political hacks have treated the entirety of the impeachment hearings like a Fox News segment – rambling nonsensically about discredited and debunked conspiracy theories in a deliberate attempt to obfuscate the truth and wear down the viewers and the American people.
While it's unlikely that these childish tactics will prevent a successful impeachment in the House of Representatives – the prospect for a conviction in the Senate, and removal from office, is quite bleak. Senate Republicans will always choose party over country. They wave the flag and call themselves patriots, but they are the first in line to sell out this nation's values and disgrace the Constitution for their own self-interest."
This week we're talking about Trump proving himself to be a laughing stock to the entire world, Joe Biden's ability to frequently say the worst possible things at the worst possible times, the differences between Bernie and Buttigieg on tuition-free public colleges, and why Bernie Sanders is going to win the Democratic nomination.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"I think it's fairly obvious to most people that we should be making the wealthy pay their fair share and investing that money into high-quality public services that can be utilized by EVERYBODY in our society. We don't prohibit wealthy people from sending their kids to public high schools, going to the library, or calling the police or fire department – that would be absurd.
This is clearly just another less effective and watered-down version of the policies being pushed by Bernie and other progressives. In my view, the purpose of these policies is not just to offer a more moderate alternative to the voters – the real purpose is to offer a more palatable alternative to the billionaire class."

I know that we've recently seen many intriguing (and sometimes shocking) new details from Donald Trump's impeach proceedings – and I'll get back to talking about many of those next week – but this week I want to share my perspective as a grassroots progresive candidate on recent developments in political advertising on social media platforms.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"The biggest point that I'm trying to make is that I don't believe that we should be demonizing these platforms or even the political advertising on these platforms. Our government has simply once again failed to protect the people of this nation from highly profitable propaganda, but it doesn't have to be this way. These social media platforms have the capability to help people become more engaged, more informed, and more involved in the political process. They helped Bernie Sanders become a nationwide political movement and helped AOC become my favorite member of the House of Representatives.
These platforms could honestly be some of the greatest innovations for political discourse ever – we just have to elect people to Congress who actually understand modern technology and stop relying on people like Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey to get the job done."
This week we're talking about the US House voting to formalize the impeachment inquiry, the evidence against Trump that has come out of the hearings so far, Trump's ridiculous response to these developments, and the likelihood of the Republican Party abandoning Trump going into the 2020 election cycle. We end the episode with Katie Hill's passionate and inspirational resignation speech.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"So, why doesn't Trump seem more worried about this development? Well, his perspective on this is… pretty similar to all of his favorite books, because it's simple and easy to understand. He expects the entire Republican Party to pledge allegiance and blindly follow him into the abyss – which is what they've been doing for his entire presidency. They've put up with every controversy, every dumb tweet, and every stupid decision that this President has made because they know that, at the end of the day, he will incoherently scribble his name on their tax cuts, environmental deregulations, military budget expansions, and the privatization of our most critical institutions.
Trump has helped a lot of rich people get richer with his presidency, but that might not be enough to keep the Republican Party unified behind him this time around. The political hacks supporting Donald Trump in Congress are nothing more than self-interested, backstabbing, liars that will throw anybody in this world under the bus to save their own careers. If they become convinced that Donald Trump is politically toxic going into the 2020 election cycle, they'll abandon him faster than Donald Trump abandoned the Kurds."
This week we're talking about AOC leveraging her understanding of modern technology to grill Mark Zuckerberg over misinformation on Facebook, the details of Bernie's plan to legalize marijuana, a nonsensical political stunt put on by House Republicans in response to the impeachment inquiry, Tulsi Gabbard's abrupt announcement to drop her reelection bid for her House seat, and the horrifying and infuriating police shooting of an unarmed & fleeing 16-year-old.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"Let's be very clear here. This was a murder. It was a murder that there will never be accountability or justice for because it was a murder done by a person in a position of authority. America doesn't have a legal system designed to protect us from the police, it has a legal system designed to protect police and other authority figures from ever having to face any consequences for their actions.
People in positions of authority should be held to a higher – not lower – standard than the rest of society. This is just another tragic yet perfect example of why we need to completely reform our criminal justice and policing systems. Like presidential candidate Julian Castro said in response to this video: "it is time to end the shoot first, ask questions later mentality that ends far too many black and brown lives." He went on to say "The fact that these officers weren't held accountable is shameful—and is just more evidence that the system is broken."
This week we're talking about AOC and Ilhan Omar endorsing Bernie, Mick Mulvaney shredding Trump's impeachment defense in front of millions of people, the death of Elijah Cummings, and we have some highlights from this week's Democratic Debate at the end of the episode.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"Before we get to the highlights from this week's debate, I wanted to take a moment recognize the loss of a legend, an icon, and a hero for any person who cares about civil liberties and human rights. Representative Elijah Cummings died on Thursday morning leaving a legacy of civility, decency, and humanity within a political climate far too often obsessed with exploiting our most petty of differences. Cummings used to always repeat a quote that grew more profound to me every time I heard it. He would say "Our children are our living messengers to a future we will never see." I believe that, especially right now, it's important to reflect on what exactly he meant by that. The values that we have and the actions of our generation will echo through time and impact the trajectory of our entire species. For better or worse, without exception, we are all in this together. As Americans, we are blessed with the incredible opportunity of not only setting a positive example for – but also learning from the successes of – the rest of the world.
We are at a pivotal point in the evolution of our society. Things are changing far faster than we have been adapting and instead of focusing on the real challenges that our society faces – we spend most of our time bickering and calling each other mean names on social media. Even the current President of the United States behaves this way. If our children truly are messengers to a future that we'll never see, the message that they're going to have if we don't make any changes is that we had the opportunity to save the world and we failed – we failed because, as a society, we were too self-interested and nearsighted to see that our own greed was literally killing us. But one thing that keeps me inspired and optimistic in times like these are the millions of people influenced by Elijah Cummings when he said time and time again in response to every form of ignorance, hatred, and animosity you could imagine… "We are better than this!"
This week we're talking about the White House's refusal to cooperate with the House impeachment inquiry, how the GOP is respondingly to an increasingly toxic Trump administration, the betrayal of our Kurdish allies in Syria, and the fallout from Activision Blizzard's decision to ban a pro gamer over publicly supporting the Hong Kong protests.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"In fact, I believe that it's far more likely that the impeachment proceedings will produce a fracture within the Republican Party. In my view, the GOP consists entirely of political hacks. They have no allegiance to Donald Trump – they see him as a useful idiot who will happily turn their agenda into law with a big smile on his face while he spreads propaganda and nonsense to his millions of energized supporters. When Donald Trump stops being useful – and starts being a liability – to establishment Republicans like Mitch McConnell, they will begin to distance themselves from his toxicity and, in return, he will betray and attempt to destroy them. Betrayal is the only option available for politicians who have no integrity, no values, and no ambition beyond being willing to do absolutely anything to get reelected."
"This week we're talking about Bernie's stent procedure & how his age/health has been covered by the media, the upcoming Democratic Debate, Elizabeth Warren's "Empowering American Workers and Raising Wages" plan, and Donald Trump's terrible response to the impeachment inquiry announced by Nancy Pelosi last week.
Here's my favorite quote from this week's episode:
"What keeps me optimistic is knowing that the majority of America does not feel like Donald Trump. The majority of our nation is not racist, sexist, or xenophobic. The majority of our nation does not believe that climate change is a hoax. And the majority of our nation does not want to see a President that embarrasses themselves and our entire nation by trolling people on Twitter when they should be doing their job.
Trump may end up winning in 2020, but that's only because we have institutions like the Electoral College that make a mockery of our democratic process. We need to elect political leadership in this country that is committed to revitalizing our democracy and putting more power directly into the hands of the people. We need ranked choice or approval voting, publicly funded elections, and we need to abolish the Electoral College so the voices of the people of this country can finally be heard."
"Donald Trump has been impeachable since the day he took office. Nearly three years later, we're finally there. Nancy Pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry of President Trump this week – sending already fatigued White House officials into total panic.
Now is the time to put every Senate Republican permanently on the record supporting this racist, ignorant, criminal President and let that support be an unwashable stain for the rest of their political careers.
The people of this nation are going to remember Trump's terrible presidency. We're gonna remember the policies inspired by hatred, we're gonna remember the incoherent and idiotic morning tweetstorms, we're gonna remember the racism, the disdain for science, and we're gonna remember the greed. But, do you know what we're gonna remember most about this shameful part of our nation's history? We're gonna remember all of the political hacks who enabled this disaster. We're gonna remember every elected official who sacrificed the tiny amount of integrity and dignity they had left to protect this lying, corrupt, greedy, narcissistic, moron.
And that memory is going to inspire us – especially many of those in my generation – to get even more involved in our democracy, vote these people out of office, and make sure that corrupt political opportunists like them never get so much power in this country ever again."
"This week we're talking about the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, 16-year-old Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, Bernie's new "Housing For All" proposal, New Mexico's plan to make college free for everyone in the state, and the impeachment of Trump and Kavanaugh."
"This week we're talking about AOC taking a stand against student loan debt, highlights from the 3rd Democratic Debate, the turmoil within the Trump administration, ranked choice voting, banning private prisons, the need for common sense gun reform, Andrew Yang's plan to give every American adult $1,000 a month, and the Republican Party playing dirty tricks in North Carolina."
"This week we're talking about what's been going on in the 2020 Democratic primary, the increasing support for unions throughout the nation, New York expunging marijuana convictions, chaos within the Republican party (especially in Texas!), our nation's gun laws, one of the Republicans challenging Trump in 2020, and Johnson & Johnson being sued by the state of Oklahoma over the company's involvement in helping cause the opioid epidemic with unethical business practices."
"My congressional campaign usually makes a video every Saturday covering some of what went on in our political system throughout the week, but today we have something a little different!
Earlier this week I had a great conversation with Savage Joy from Real Progressives that I wanted to share with all of you. We talked about my policies, personal background, and the chaotic state of American politics in 2019.
I love doing these interviews because I think it's a great way for people to get a feel for who I am and why I feel the way I do about so many important issues."
"We should increase the size of the House of Representatives to 1,000 members – and I've got the math to prove it! On today's episode we're taking a look at the history of the US House, why it currently has 435 members, and the disastrous consequences of some major changes made to the chamber less than 100 years ago.
The truth is, the House was never designed to be capped at a fixed number of Representatives. Unlike the Senate, the House was intended to scale directly and proportionally with the population of our country. In the 1920s – when the size of the House became fixed at 435 members – the population of the US was roughly 120 million people. Today, it's roughly 330 million.
This has directly contributed to the massive amounts of corruption and dysfunction within this chamber that we see today. Our nation's population continues to grow, which means so do all of our congressional districts. The larger these districts grow, the more money it takes to run a competitive campaign to win. The more money it takes to run a campaign, the higher the likelihood that a corporate-funded candidate with powerful and wealthy donors will win.
But! The good news is that we can fix all of this! Simply increasing the size of the US House to 1,000 members would address many of the worst structural issues of the chamber. It would significantly reduce the average population of our congressional districts while also dramatically reducing the "population disparity" among the districts – meaning that it would reduce the size difference between the most and least populated districts.
For example, Montana has a population of just over a million and they have 1 congressional district. Rhode Island also has a population of just over a million, but they have 2 congressional districts with just over a half-million people per district. There's a population difference of around 500,000 people for these districts. This video shows how increasing the size of the US House to 1,000 members would bring down the population difference between our largest and smallest districts to under 100k people."
"This week we're talking about criminal justice reform, the Green New Deal, Jay Inslee dropping out, trade wars, civil liberties, the Republicans taking on Trump in the 2020 primary, a lawsuit filed on behalf of 55,000 migrants alleging torture in ICE detention centers, the death of David Koch, and the great state of Colorado becoming the first in the nation to cap the cost of insulin."
"This week we're talking about Jeffrey Epstein's suicide, the Philadelphia police shootout, Hickenlooper dropping out of the presidential race, Joe Biden's rough time this week at the Iowa State Fair, leaked emails showing lobbyists writing legislation and handing out talking points to Congress, and how the #TrumpRecession hashtag trending in response to turbulence in the securities and bond makets."
"My congressional campaign is making a video every Saturday covering some of what went on in our political system throughout the week. We think this is a great way to reach out to and engage with people all throughout the country – and let them know how I feel about some of these topics – without having to spend a bunch of money on expensive campaign materials.
This week we're talking about our government's failure to appropriately respond to America's gun violence epidemic, Mitch McConnell's terrible week, Bernie's performance in the presidential race, the "MAGA bomber", the recent frenzy of Republican congressional retirements, Fox News, ICE raids, and we finish it off with a story that comes from right here in the great state of Colorado!"
"As some of you know, my campaign is making a video every Saturday covering some of what went on in our political system throughout the week. We think this is a great way to reach out to and engage with people all throughout the country – and let them know how I feel about some of these topics – without having to spend a bunch of money on expensive marketing materials.
This week we're talking about police brutality, the impact of Trump's dangerously hateful rhetoric, the massive protest taking place in Hong Kong, Republicans pushing another tax cut for the wealthy, growing support for impeachment proceedings among House Democrats, Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking trial, artificial intelligence, and highlights from both nights of the 2nd Democratic debate!"
"A lot of things happen in our crazy political system throughout the week and I'm not always able to properly address them all with posts on Facebook and Twitter, so as part of my congressional campaign we're going to try to start making a show every Saturday to briefly talk about what went on during the week and how I feel about all of it.
Today, we're covering recent stories about threats made against progressive members of Congress, the debt ceiling, border patrol, Al Franken, Robert Mueller, Boris Johnson, 9/11, Puerto Rico, Donald Trump, and declawing cats!
This is our first attempt at discussing the news as a part of our campaign and we'd really like to get your thoughts and opinions in the comments. Thanks for watching and feel free to reach out to us throughout the week with stories you'd like to see us talk about!"
"My campaign's most recent video addresses a comment that I've heard numerous times out on the campaign trail and here on social media. A few people have told me that they support my platform and ideas, but believe that my age will have a negative impact on my ability to win this election.
I disagree with those people. In fact, I believe that my age – and being a member of my generation – will have an overwhelmingly positive impact on my campaign!
My generation is not just a bunch of kids anymore – and all of us have grown up with a bit of a unique perspective on what it's like to be an American. We're a generation old enough to have seen nearly two decades of perpetual warfare. We're old enough to have suffered, struggled, and survived through a catastrophic financial meltdown that threatened to wipe out the entire global economy just as we were coming of age & we saw that our government responded to that crisis by giving billions of dollars to the criminals that destroyed the economy with their own greed.
We are a generation concerned about our dying planet, endless wars, rigged economy, broken healthcare system, unaffordable education, and so many other things because… our future literally depends on it. This is the world that we inherited and, now, we're old enough to see where all the previous generations went wrong – but we're still young enough to have the energy and passion required to get involved, fight for what we believe in, and make sure our future is better than our past."
"The NRCC recently created a website called "Socialist Showdown" that allows people to donate to the progressive challengers of Democratic incumbents throughout the nation. Under a giant banner featuring AOC and Bernie Sanders, progressive candidates are compared to the incumbents they're facing on issues ranging from Medicare For All to The Green New Deal to Impeaching Donald Trump.
This completely ineffective attack by the Republican Party is designed to capitalize on the tension that exists between the progressive and centrist wings of the Democratic Party. They believe that the friction between these factions will make the party weaker, but they couldn't be more wrong. What they don't understand is that the progressive movement is slowly turning the Democratic Party into the only party that actually fights for the policies that the American people want.
Things like Medicare For All, overturning Citizens United, The Green New Deal, the elimination of student loan debt, raising the minimum wage, taxing the wealthy, and ending the wars.
"If you didn't have time to watch – or just want to catch up on – the first Democratic debate: my congressional campaign has you covered! We put together a video of all of the highlights from ALL 20 candidates on BOTH nights of the first 2019 Democratic debate. Hope you enjoy!

"Let's talk about impeachment.
The Constitution says a President can only be impeached due to high crimes and misdemeanors. Most of the media and political pundits are focusing on the acts of potential obstruction of justice detailed in The Mueller Report to satisfy this requirement, but – while I think that's absolutely a route worth pursuing – I believe there's a much more obvious, clear-cut, and easy path to proving that President Trump committed impeachable offenses while serving as POTUS. It's called: The Emoluments Clause.
The basic premise of The Emoluments Clause is that government officials are prohibited from receiving gifts, offices, titles, salary, fees, or payments from members of foreign governments without first receiving approval from Congress. Trump owns or possesses an interest in several hundred companies, many of which do business in foreign countries with entities controlled by foreign government. This, combined with the fact that he neither divested from nor put any of these investments in a blind trust, makes Donald Trump a walking, talking, 6AM tweetstorming Emoluments Clause violation.
There have been three different lawsuits filed against Trump based on violations of The Emoluments Clause – the most notable of which was filed by 200 congressional Democrats. All of these cases have been thrown out because our justice system is not designed to hold a sitting President accountable.
This is just another example of why – when the President breaks the law – the legislative branch, our congressional leadership, needs to begin the impeachment process and, at the very least, expose the President's crimes in full to the American people. This should apply not just to violations of the Emoluments Clause, but also to war crimes, campaign finance violations, and any act of blatant corruption that undermines our nation's democratic process.
This is about reinforcing the concept that nobody in our country is above the law. Not even the President. For far too long we've allowed rich and powerful people to do essentially anything they want without any accountability or consequences. It's time for that to change."
"When elected, I will introduce legislation that will legalize cannabis at the federal level and use the $100 BILLION DOLLARS generated by doing so over the next decade to directly respond to the opioid epidemic that has led drug overdose to become the #1 cause of death for people under 50 in the United States.
Evidence-based solutions emphasizing harm reduction and treatment interventions not only exist – they are medically and scientifically proven to save lives. Opioid use disorder is treatable by medical professionals with the appropriate equipment and medication. Overdose prevention centers are being established throughout the world to reduce the health and societal problems associated with drug use and to directly engage with some of the most difficult-to-reach segments of the population.
Every single one of our elected officials needs to stand up to the pharmaceutical industry, but they won't. With nearly $300 million spent on politics by the pharma industry in 2018 alone – our leaders & DC's political operatives can't afford to do what's right.
I'm one of the only candidates running for office that is offering a solution to this problem that will not only directly save thousands of lives – but will pay for itself entirely by investing the tax revenue from legalized cannabis into building a culture of care instead of criminality. Into intervening to save people's lives, not to throw more people in prison.
Just say no… to the war on drugs."
"In this episode of The New American Dream I discuss how I believe our government should approach utilizing and regulating blockchain and related technologies. I also introduce three transformative policies that would inspire incredible growth within the blockchain industry:
1.) "The Public Blockchain For Public Records Act"
2.) "The ICO Crowdfunding Act"
3.) And "The Cryptocurrency Is Currency Act"
And I also explain how my campaign is currently utilizing the Ethereum blockchain to power my website and for an ERC-20 political cryptocollectible token that my campaign has issued for fundraising!"
"My recent interview on Uphill Media's "We The People" was the best interview I've done so far! I had the opportunity to discuss why campaign finance reform, Medicare For All, ending the wars, and the Green New Deal are so important to me and we talked about the progress my campaign has made on "The Democracy Initiatives" – four citizen's initiatives that would completely transform the democratic process in the state of Colorado.
Those four initiatives are:
1.) Publicly funding elections with "Democracy Vouchers"
2.) Replacing plurality voting with Approval Voting
3.) Incentivized voting with refundable tax credits for anyone that votes
4.) Making Election Day a national holiday called "Democracy Day"
Check out the interview for a more detailed description about the purpose of these initiatives and how they would be implemented. Also, for anyone who wants to get to know me better or find out what values I stand for, this is a good opportunity to see how I think about the world and the current state of our political system. Thanks for watching!"
"Why is it that – even with an approval rating of just 10% – 20% – congressional incumbents still manage to defend their seats more than 90% of the time? It's because we have a system that does nearly everything possible to prevent working class and poor people from participating in the political process and running competitive campaigns against the billionaires and special interests.
The average cost of winning a US House seat is $1,500,000 and the average cost of winning a US Senate seat is OVER $10,000,000! To put that absolutely obscene amount of money in perspective a little bit, if a candidate raised 27 donations of $27 every single day it would take over 5 years to raise just the average amount to win a US House seat and nearly 40 years to raise just the average amount to win a US Senate seat!
Very few people in our society have the financial means to compete with these enormous sums of money, so our political system has become dominated by opportunists who could accurately be described as corporations pretending to be human beings. These people do nothing but follow the money. They vote for healthcare legislation that drives working class people into bankruptcy whenever they get sick because it's what their greedy donors want. They vote for education policies that drive entire generations into lifelong debt because it's what their greedy donors want. And they vote to start wars, to build pipelines, to outsource jobs, to deregulate the economy, and to privatize critical institutions because it's what their greedy donors want. This level of corporate control over our political institutions is a tragedy for our democracy."
"I don't like Joe Biden and I don't agree at all with the folks out there claiming that the definition of "unity" includes throwing away our critical thinking skills and refusing to criticize any of the 2020 Democratic primary candidates.
That might work if the only goal here was defeating Trump – but it isn't. We're also trying to build an economic system, political system, criminal justice system, and environmental protection system that works for ALL of us, not just the wealthy. That's never going to happen as long as corporate-friendly, warmongering, out-of-touch "centrist" politicians (like Joe Biden) continue to be the standard-bearers for the Democratic Party.
We need someone who is going to take a stand against the wealthy and powerful with ambitious policies that will help us build a society that works for ALL of us. We don't need someone who has spent the last 40 years of his political career pushing the corporate agenda by supporting mass incarceration, the war on drugs, the death penalty, military invasions, dismantling the social safety net, the Patriot Act, and a border wall. We don't need someone who has helped enable the outsourcing of American labor, supported the Hyde Amendment, silenced and shamed Anita Hill, passionately fought against desegregation, and has taken huge sums of money from the financial services industry.
That's why I made this video encouraging people to research Joe Biden's record of votes and values. The Democrats have a variety of good candidates running this campaign cycle, and I believe that the more that people learn about the differences between the candidates, the less they will support Joe Biden."
"Earlier this week I had the opportunity to sit down for a livestream interview with The Collective Social Network to discuss how my congressional campaign is taking on the political establishment! It's a great conversation where we touch on a number of the important issues that define my values and political platform, such as:
– Campaign Finance Reform
– Medicare For All
– The Green New Deal
– US Imperialism, the Military-Industrial Complex, and Ending the Wars
– Comprehensive Immigration Reform
– Labor Policy
– And a variety of other interesting topics, progressive policies, and good solutions.
I had a great time discussing these important issues for such a long time and I'm really looking forward to going on the show again in the future as my election draws closer. Thanks for watching!"
"Today, I'm excited to announce the next big step for my congressional campaign: The Democracy Initiatives – four Citizen's Initiatives created by my campaign that will modernize and transform the democratic process in the state of Colorado. These four initiatives are:
– Making Election Day a state holiday called "Democracy Day" in Colorado.
– Publicly funding Colorado's elections with "Democracy Vouchers" for every registered voter.
– Creating tax credits for voting in Colorado's primary and general elections.
– Replacing our unfair and broken voting system with an Approval Voting system, meaning that we make one simple change to the way that we vote: allowing people to vote for as many candidates as they want instead of just one candidate.
The Democracy Initiatives will transform Colorado's democratic process by boosting voter turnout in our primary and general elections, giving the people more power in the campaign finance system, and giving third-party and Independent candidates a truly fair chance at running competitive campaigns against major party candidates. These are the kinds of policies that we need to fight for in every state throughout the nation so we can get more people voting, more people involved in the process, and more outsider politicians challenging the status quo."
"My favorite part of running for office is all of the amazing opportunities I have to reach out and connect with so many different people in so many different ways. One of the top priorities of my campaign is trying to help inform people about what's going on in the world of politics in a way that's both entertaining *and* informative.
That's why we decided to cover some of this week's most interesting and absurd political news on this episode of The New American Dream! I talk about the US House vote to override Trump's veto, Mitch McConnell's sham vote on The Green New Deal, Senator Mike Lee being absolutely ridiculous, and I take a closer look at US Senator Cory Gardner and a passionate progressive running for his Senate seat in 2020 here in Colorado. Hope you enjoy!"
"We NEED affordable housing. This must become a top priority for our legislatures. Not just in Denver. Not just in Colorado. We need this throughout the entire nation.
There are over 550,000 homeless people struggling to survive in our country. That's roughly the equivalent of the entire population of the state of Wyoming slipping through the cracks of our society. Meanwhile, millions more are being forced out of their homes and communities, away from their jobs and families, and out of their school systems because the cost of living in their neighborhood has doubled or tripled over the last decade alone.
That's why I joined United For A New Economy at an Affordable Housing and Rent Stabilization Rally in support of a bill sponsored by Senator Julie Gonzales that would empower our local city and county governments to create and enact solutions to our housing crisis.
The people of Colorado are incredibly passionate about this issue, so on this episode of The New American Dream, I decided to let them do most of the talking!
Special thanks to Senator Julie Gonzales for sponsoring the bill and to United For A New Economy, 9to5 Colorado, and Colorado Homes for All for hosting this event."
"I'm running for Congress and I need your help. I'd like to ask all of the supporters of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Ro Khanna, Tulsi Gabbard, Ilhan Omar, Elizabeth Warren, and all other progressive politicians to help me spread the word about my campaign & the "New American Dream" platform. It includes:
– Campaign Finance Reform
– Medicare For All
– Tuition Free Public Colleges & Universities
– Universal Child Care
– Raising The Minimum Wage
– The Green New Deal
– Ending The Wars
– And many more progressive political policies!"

Right Side yard:
So spacious, and grassy!! The bushes form the "Fence" (affiliate link) between us and the neighbors. I think there's chain link under there somewhere.
Back yard:
A fire pit has been added.
Peaceful to watch! So handy for burning old files!!
Right side of the huge porch, featuring the front door into the living room:
Left side of porch, from carport, into kitchen:
You can see the laundry room door, where the half bath is. So wonderful to have 2 pottys again!! Very needed at times!
The house is on a double lot, which explains the humongus yard! So nice for letting the girls roam and play!! As long as we can see them!!
When we walked in, DD1 was immediately excited about the dishwasher!
The original hardwood floors in the living/dining room, hall, and both bedrooms are one of my favorite parts of Peaceful!
Look it the cute bathroom!
And notice the shell sink!
The hexagon tiles on the floor are pale white & black.
DH never wanted another purple bathroom, so now he has pink!! Lol!!
But he hasn't complained!!
In the backyard we have 5 kinds of fruit trees!
We love this house. Hopefully it stays Peaceful, and we live here a loooong time. I can always hope! You know us, no promises though.

|30 min
|1 h 10 min
|1 medium/large bird
|Whole Chicken (free-range (about 2lbs))
|1 medium
|3 clove(s)
|1 tsp
|Sea salt
|1 tsp
|Black pepper
|3 tbsp
|Ghee (or butter)
1. Allow the chicken to come up to room temperature (about 1 hour).
2. Preheat oven to 450°F. When the chicken has reached room temperature, rinse it under cool water and pat dry, making sure it is dried thoroughly.
3. Liberally apply the ghee all over chicken making sure to get underneath the skin. To get the ghee under the skin (particularly the breast, legs and thigh), gently use the back end of a wooden spoon to create a pocket between the skin and the meat, being sure not to puncture the skin. Massage the skin to evenly coat the chicken with the ghee. Then, evenly apply the salt and pepper all over.
4. After seasoning the chicken, take the lemon and cut it into half. Place the lemon halves and the garlic inside the cavity.
5. Heat a large skillet (big enough to fit the whole bird in comfortably) over medium-high heat. Make sure the skillet gets hot enough so that the chicken sizzles when you place it into the pan. Place the chicken into the skillet breast side up and sear for 3 to 4 minutes. Then, place the skillet into the preheated oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the skin to brown nicely. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F and continue to cook the chicken for an additional 45 minutes.
6. When the chicken is done, CAREFULLY remove the skillet from the oven using potholders because the skillet handle will be EXTREMELY HOT. Tip: once the skillet is out of the oven, cover the handle as a reminder not to touch it.
7. Transfer the chicken from the skillet to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 20 minutes (Tip: always follow this step if you like your chicken moist!) Once the chicken has rested, carve it and serve with some roasted vegetables of your choice.
NOTE: If you are unsure how to properly carve a chicken, a quick YouTube search should help!
For additional nutrients - have with a side of roasted or steamed vegetables, like broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus or green beans
is a great source of lean protein, it is great for muscle maintaining muscle mass and also helps to build muscle if you are strength training


text: Sapphire Silver Ring, Sequoia: wide and bold, this ring holds a single drop of navy, a rich AAA grade 3mm sapphire. The ring has a low profile and is extremely comfortable to wear due to the squarish cornered shape, the stone is sturdily set into the ring in a bezel style setting and there are no prongs to be catching on things as you go about your daily tasks. The band wraps around the finger, with the tapering end melted onto the wider end. In this area of the ring is where the sapphire is held in place, and the tree trunk texture begins just below the stone setting. The piece is primarily sandblasted and etched, then polished in the accent areas to really make the texture pop. Handcrafted and cast in sterling silver.

London: Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay on Tuesday said that he would not walk away from the club despite another difference of opinion with Malaysian owner Vincent Tan.
After Mackay publicly expressed a desire to strengthen his squad in the January transfer window, Tan released a statement via chief executive Simon Lim in which he said he was "extremely upset" with the manager for having not consulted him.
Tan also explained that he had decided to sack former head of recruitment Iain Moody, a close ally of Mackay`s, because he overspent by £15 million ($24 million, 18 million euros) during the last transfer window.
However, while Mackay expressed surprise at Tan`s latest comments, he said he remained dedicated to the Cardiff cause.
"I will not resign from my post. I was surprised, obviously, but at the same time my job doesn`t change," he said in an interview due to be broadcast on BBC Radio Wales later on Tuesday.
"It`s a job only three-quarters done, as far as I`m concerned -- making Cardiff a sustainable Premier League team.
"I have a great group of players who are competing at this level and enjoying this level. The fans are enjoying being at this level and my duty is to make sure we continue to do that.
"It would be wrong of me to walk away from a job because the owner doesn`t want to give me more money in January."
Promoted from the second-tier Championship last season, Cardiff are currently four points above the Premier League relegation zone in 15th place after 15 games of the campaign.
Tan has courted controversy during his Cardiff stewardship, notably changing the club`s badge and colours to red from their traditional blue in 2012.

tour de force [ tr də fáwrss ]
skillful feat: something done with supreme skill or brilliance
skillful feat: something done with supreme skill or brilliance
Synonyms: work of art, masterwork, magnum opus, tour de force, chef-d'oeuvre, stroke of genius
Successful return from Iowa after master classes, performances, copious cups of coffee consumed, much getting lost in the midst of a college campus, Pam's chocolate chip cookies, long car drives, coveting carrot cake at an over-priced bakery, vintage clothing shopping, and late night conversations with close friends.
We left early on Friday and had a pretty smooth drive in, not toooo many dead deer on the side of the road. Jen gave a fantastic master class in one of the beautiful studios. There is something about a high ceiling that makes me feel both so small and so infinite in space. I ran into an old friend, Joe, who was a principal dancer with Louisville Ballet when I was a mere trainee. I believe he's an adjunct faculty at the University now.
Then we had spacing and tech in the theatre. We wore black shorts, a variety of shape of black top, and we were supposed to wear long black socks but they were a little big on everyone's feet. We all looked a bit like Dopey from Snow White, if Dopey was a feisty contemporary dancer. Having giant slippery socks underfoot made me feel incredibly hesitant in my movement, but I fear the costume element wasn't the only thing to blame in that first run. I was nervous all day leading up to being in the theatre, and standing in the wings, felt myself questioning, 'Do I really like doing this anymore?' I haven't performed on stage in so long, I feel out of practice and my confidence level wasn't the greatest. Nerves and fear can really mess with your head, with your goals, dreams, purpose.
we nixed the socks and danced barefoot which physically helped. After a good warm-up from Jen, a prayer led by Mary, and a quiet handheld circle with my fellow dancers, I think I was able to channel a remembered and present sense of just loving being on stage. I don't think I gave my best performances this weekend, this was not my tour de force. But I do think that rediscovering the confidence to be a performer, to stand up with such incredible dancers is a pretty great achievement.
I absolutely love this piece. We performed, 'Poetry' with choreography from our Artistic Director, Jennifer Medina set to music by Saul Williams. This is the opening music:
Is it any wonder, hearing that, why I had so much fun and felt so empowered during these shows? It also could be that this my first big performance with Common Thread Contemporary Dance Company. Or it could be because I saw this piece performed last year, reviewed it, and have been wanting to actually do it ever since. (Remember this?) I think another big high for me came from not just the personal but the shared experience. If there is one dancer in the company that I constantly look to for inspiration in musicality, physicality, performance, energy, strength, line, detail- you name it- it's Tara. I remember last year when I wasn't dancing at all, seeing her in this piece and saying, I want to be that. I want that sense of strength and beauty and both self-enjoyment and generosity and I want it through dance. Tara, and this piece of Jen's, is really a big part of what brought me back into my passion. After the show and a big hug, Tara told me that she was happy to have shared the stage together and I couldn't agree more. It's been a long time coming, since I felt those first small feelings of wanting to be a dancer again, a dancer like Tara, pushing through the self-doubt and being somehow given the exact opportunity that pulled me back in.
It is such a gift to be part of a company that challenges, inspires, and also SUPPORTS each other.Possibly even more-so than her choreography, it is this creation- this company- that is Jen's tour de force.
Saturday was a little bit crazy because there was a football game so the entire campus seemed dressed in yellow and black (mascot colors) and mostly drunk. What if everyone in any given town got this revved up for Nutcracker? I'm envisioning masses of people on the opening night wearing plum-colored suits, dresses made of candy, and the occasional rat tail.
I suppose the whole world isn't ever going to be as enthusiastic about dance as I would want. Not to worry, I have my little group that is and I feel certain now in my own enthusiasm.
Here are a few pictures from the trip:
My favorite quote from the trip:
(Jess and Pam approach the theatre.. Jess grabs door handle and pulls, repeatedly, with gusto to no avail. Turns to Pam)
"I think it's locked."
"Ya think?" (I love Pam)
I don't feel locked out anymore. xo- Jess

Help Bishop Barron continue to reach
The Unaffiliated
Bishop Barron's Commitment to Reaching the Unaffiliated
Survey after survey has shown that the number of the "nones," or the religiously unaffiliated, is increasing dramatically in our country. Pope Francis memorably told us to "get out of the sacristies and into the streets" and to go "to the existential margins" to reach this group of people. Especially in our Western context, the streets and the existential margins are where we find the "nones."
Here are some examples of how Bishop Barron's Word on Fire is effectively reaching the "nones":
Bishop Barron visited the Google headquarters (Googleplex) in Mountain View, CA on March 20, 2018. He addressed a room full of Google and YouTube employees on how religion doesn't shut down the questing intellect, but in fact opens up our minds, causing us to seek the fulfillment of our deepest longings. These yearnings won't be satisfied by wealth, pleasure, power, or honor, but only by the God who wired us to be satisfied in him.
On December 16, 2018, Bishop Barron had a conversation with Ben Shapiro (from Daily Wire) for his "Sunday Special" show. They sat down for a thoughtful dialogue about God, culture, Judaism, and Christianity.
Bishop Barron's talk at the Facebook Headquarters was on September 18, 2017 was titled "How to have a Religious Argument". Every day, millions of people argue about religion on social media. The comment boxes of religious and atheist sites are among the most visited and the most heated in the virtual space. In his talk, Bishop Barron paves a way forward, showing how we all, believer and nonbeliever alike, can share better religious discussions.
Bishop Barron has appeared on Dave Rubin's "The Rubin Report" twice. The first time was in January 2017 where he discussed belief, faith, the Church, abortion, gay marriage, and the negative effects of pornography.
The second time on December 2018 he was joined by Rabbi David Wolpe of Sinai Temple in Los Angeles. The three had a fascinating conversation about how to deal with grief and suffering, what it means to be happy, and why God matters in a secular age.
Bishop Barron visited YouTube Headquarters and reflected on how instrumental YouTube has been to his Word on Fire ministry over the years.
With over 180,000 YouTube subscribers, Bishop Barron uses YouTube as a powerful way to proclaim Christ to the culture and draw people into the Catholic Faith.
Bishop Barron appeared on Mind Pump Media, an iTunes Top 50 Health & Fitness podcast, in August 2018. They had a lively conversation around some of the "big questions" of the Faith.
On September 19, 2018, Bishop Barron ventured into new territory by becoming the first Catholic Bishop to answer unfiltered questions on one of the popular "Ask Me Anything" forums hosted by Reddit, the fifth-most-visited website on the Internet.

Mickela Panday launches Property Tax education campaign
Government has fallen short in its responsibility to educate and simplify the implementation of the Property Tax to citizens.
Calling for greater clarity on the purpose for which the Property Tax will be used, attorney Mickela Panday announced her intention to begin a public education drive where she would visit various communities throughout the country to help citizens understand the tax.
At a conference on Monday, she said there are still thousands who do not know how the tax will affect them, creating unease.
She said despite government's education drive and attempts by citizens to gain more clarity on the tax, what remains unclear are the consequences for refusing to complete valuation forms.
Panday said citizens remain terrified about the possibility of losing their homes because the true risks involved remain unknown at this time.
She stressed that government needs to do more than direct citizens to the Finance Ministry's website, especially as there may be many citizens who still do not have internet access.
Panday also called on government to reveal what the tax would be used for, restating that citizens would have no issue paying a reasonable tax if they can see returns on those payments.
She said people are reeling from job losses and other difficulties, so to introduce the tax at this time would only serve to further exacerbate an already bad situation.

Simple guide to having videos of yourself on the internet, don't read the comments! 20 messages of sycophantic adulation and one "he's terrible" will ruin your day. It's like reading a girlfriend's diary (not that I would do such a thing). You will obsess on the negative. I do not talk too much! (Not that I read this in her diary).
In fairy tales, young heroes are told "don't leave the path" inevitably stray and meet witches, trolls and dragons. Earlier this year, I foolishly read some of the comments under a video of me performing on Britain's Got Talent. "Funny", "I'd rather watch paint dry" and everything in between. What surprised me was that the most common comments were "I like how non-PC he is". "He is so non-PC." "If a white person said this he would never get away with it." "I can't believe the things the African said."
On the streets, a man approached me the same week and said, "I love your racist jokes". Now I think (hope!) he meant 'racial' but all the nattering on about how non-PC my jokes were made me wonder. Am I being perceived as a shorter, squeakier, not as fat (yet) Bernard Manning.
What is all right to say in public is on everyone's mind? Populists like Farage and Trump have said atrocious things and said, "it's what everybody thinks but can't say". And then Anne Marie Morris said the 'N word' in parliament.
My last one-man show was about love, inspired by an ex getting married. I had thought I would write a show about growing older next, but no, no, no. I was being pushed, downright yelled at, to write a show about what it's ok to say in public, censorship, crossing the line and 'what the line actually is'.
And I'm the right person for this mission. I have been threatened by a censorship board in Malawi and been threatened by some followers of a prophet in Zimbabwe. These stories all come up, as does the person who said he'd rather watch paint dry. What colour paint? On how hot a day? So many questions.
I strayed from the path, read the comments, got a little hurt, but got a show out of it. What the African said is a show about the things I've said, shouldn't have said, and dragons.
