Pump up the new Punk
Despite risks from oppressive regimes, young people in Burma, Indonesia, Iraq and Russia are discovering the anarchic energy of punk rock.world Updated: Mar 17, 2012 22:16 IST
Despite risks from oppressive regimes, young people in Burma, Indonesia, Iraq and Russia are discovering the anarchic energy of punk rock.
It's been a long time since the term "punk rock" could strike fear into the British establishment. The Sex Pistols' John Lydon - aka Johnny Rotten - was long ago transformed into a pantomimic national institution, and now advertises Country Life butter; it's 16 years since Tony Blair admiringly mentioned the Clash in a speech at the Brit awards.
The last few months, however, have brought news from abroad suggesting that in many places, punk's combination of splenetic dissent, loud guitars and outre attire can cause as much disquiet and outrage as ever. The stories concerned take in Indonesia, Burma, Iraq and Russia - and most highlight one big difference between the hoo-hah kicked up by punk in the US and Britain of the late 70s, and the reactions it now stirs thousands of miles from its places of birth. Back then, being a punk rocker might invite occasional attacks in the street, a ban on your records, and the odd difficulty finding somewhere to play. Now, if you pursue a love of punk in the wrong political circumstances, you may well experience oppression at its most brutal: torture, imprisonment, what one regime calls "moral rehabilitation" and even death.
First, then, to Iraq, and news that will surely warm the heart of anyone who still believes the US and Britain attacked that country to introduce it to the
wonders of democracy and tolerance. Last weekend, Reuters reported that at least 14 young people had been stoned to death in Baghdad, thanks to "a campaign by Shi-ite militants against youths wearing Western-style 'emo' clothes and haircuts".
For the uninitiated, "emo" is short for "emotional hardcore", and refers to a music and dress-code traceable to a variety of punk invented in Washington DC in the mid-1980s. In February, the Iraqi interior ministry said it equated "the 'emo' phenomenon" with satanism. One thing is definitely true: figures for emo-related killings are blurring into those for homophobic murders (put at up to 58 in the last six weeks alone), reflecting a widespread perception in Iraq that emo is a byword not just for devil-worship, but homosexuality.
In Moscow, a court ruling on Wednesday marked the latest chapter in the story of an all-female band called Pussy Riot, two of whom were arrested last month after they illicitly took over the pulpit in a Moscow church, and attempted to recite a "punk prayer" written in opposition to Vladimir Putin. Pussy Riot's music is scratchy, unhinged stuff that takes its lead from a fleeting genre known as riot grrrl - traceable, at least in part, to Washington DC, and brought to fruition nearly 20 years ago by such groups as Bikini Kill, and a British band called Huggy Bear.
"We somehow developed what [those groups] did in the 1990s, although in an absolutely different context and with an exaggerated political stance," one band member called Garadzha Matveyeva has explained, "which leads to all of our performances being illegal - we'll never give a gig in a club or in any special musical space. That's an important principle for us." The band, who always perform in identity-concealing balaclavas, has a free-floating membership that can number up to 15 people - it amounts to "a pulsating and growing body", as Matveyeva sees it. This week, the two members who were arrested had their detention extended by six weeks.
In Burma, the country's punk rock milieu has been fomenting since around 2007, when musicians came together in brazen opposition to the country's ruling junta. Its most notable representatives are two bands, No U Turn, and the Rebel Riot, both of whom favour the mohicans-and-studs look de rigeur on the Kings Road circa 1980. The Rebel Riot are led by 24-year-old Kyaw Kyaw. His band and their fans though tolerated by the authorities, are regularly harassed by police; there are also suspicions that punk audiences are usually smattered with undercover police.
What all these stories highlight is the ongoing vitality of a musical form that, in its homelands, has tended to fall into self-parody. In the more placid environs of Copenhagen, an organisation called Freemuse - which claims to be "the world's leading organisation advocating freedom of expression for musicians" - attempts to keep tabs on the persecution of musicians across the planet, and its programme director, Ole Reitov, is aware of the fact that punks seem to be disproportionately in the line of repressive fire. "You're seeing the same symptoms in all kinds of countries: it's a matter of what you do if you feel you're powerless," he says.
In December last year, a punk gig took place in Aceh, Indonesia, the "special province" of the country that has its own police force pledged to maintain sharia law. Supposedly because the event's organisers had forged official documents to gain the requisite permit, 64 of its attendees were arrested, and taken to a nearby detention centre, before being transported to a "remedial school" 37 miles away. There, their mohican hairstyles were forcibly removed because they were deemed "insulting to Islamic traditions". According to a police spokesman, the group was held there to "undergo a re-education, so their morals will match those of other Acehnese people". Demonstrations followed not just in Indonesia, but in London and San Francisco.
The story was the latest twist in the 20-year history of Indonesian punk, explained down a phone-line from Jakarta by 30-year-old Fathun Karib, a member of a punk-metal group called Cryptical Death, and author of a doctoral thesis on the subject. He puts the events in Aceh down to local politicians running for elections. "They use sending the punks to moral rehab to prove they're doing a good job," he says.
The first wave of Indonesian punk stretched from 1990 to 1995. The second Indonesian phase began in 1996, inspired by a US punk fanzine and record label called Profane Existence, and the British band Crass, who shared an essentially anarchist ideology. This development played into a sea change in Indonesian public opinion, as opposition to the Suharto regime - which fell in 1998 - hardened. A third phase, he says, saw the punk scene become "more international" - a development marked by a famous occasion when the Exploited played in Jakarta in 2006. And from then until now, punk rock has rooted itself across Indonesia.
Towards the end of our conversation, I ask him the inevitable question: what appeals to him about a music and subculture that will soon be 40 years old? His answer is spoken with the same passion you would have found in London during the hot punk summer of 1976. "It's simply an expression of freedom," he says. "It has those do-it-yourself values. And it's always opposed to the dominant culture. That's why people like it."

The veterans formed a convoy from Madera to the facility in Southwest Fresno, asking Governor Jerry Brown to restore funding in the state budget. "My husband is a World War II Veteran and he has a home and doesn't need it. But our concern is for those who need it," said Jane Chamberlin of Fresno.

Two builders, Dave and Mike, were seated at a table in a pub when a well-dressed man in a smart suit entered, ordered a beer and sat down on a stool at the bar.
The two builders began to speculate about the man's occupation.
Dave: I reckon 'es an accountant.
Mike: No way -- 'es a stockbroker.
Dave: Leave it out, he ain't no stockbroker! He wouldn't come in 'ere if he was.
This argument continued for some time until the beer began to take its toll on Dave and he had to head for the toilet.
On entering he noticed 'the suit' standing at a urinal, and with the beer giving him Dutch courage he decided to ask the man about himself.
Dave: No offence meant, but me and me mate, we've been having a bit of a barney about what you might do for a livin'. So what line are you in?
Suit: No offence taken. As a matter of fact, my profession is as a Logical Scientist.
Dave: Oh yeah? What's that mean then?
Suit: I'll try to explain by example... Do you have a goldfish at home?
Dave: Er... well, yeah, I do, as it 'appens.
Suit: Well, it's logical that you keep it either in a bowl or in a pond. Which is it?
Dave: It's in a pond.
Suit: Well then, it's reasonable to suppose that if you have a pond you have a large garden.
Dave: Yes, as it goes, I 'ave got a big garden.
Suit: Now, it's logical to assume that in this town, if you have a large garden, you also have a large house.
Dave: As it 'appens I do 'ave –- a five-bedroom place; built it meself.
Suit: Well, given that you've built a five-bedroomed house, it's logical to assume that you haven't built it just for yourself, and therefore you are almost certainly married and have a family. Yes?
Dave: Yeah, that's right, I live wiv me missus and four kids.
Suit: Well, with that number of children, it is logical to assume you are sexually active with your wife on a regular basis. Yes?
Dave: Yep, absolutely - three or four times in the week and always at weekends.
Suit: So it's logical to conclude from that that you don't masturbate very often.
Dave: Damn right I don't! No need to, mate!
Suit: Well, there you are. That's logical science for you.
Dave: What d'you mean?
Suit: Well, from initially establishing that you have a goldfish I've now also established that you have an active sex life.
Dave: Oh yeah! That's pretty impressive. Thanks, mate!
Both men left the toilet and Dave returned to rejoin Mike.
Mike: I saw 'the suit' go in the toilet about the same time as you. D'you speak to 'im?
Dave: Yep. I asked him what 'e did for a livin', and he told me 'es a Logical Scientist.
Mike: What's that then when it's at 'ome?
Dave: Well it's a bit complicated like, but I'll try an' explain. Do you 'ave a goldfish?
Mike: No, I don't.
Dave: Well then, you're a wanker!
** Logical Science
We've created this area in the hope of seeing material ranging from some well-told (or well retold) jokes to original writing with a humorous slant, or anything else that might appeal to the kind of person who enjoys playing with words more than people. That probably means someone like yourself. N.B. -- Postings preceded by ** contain some sexual or risqué content. (Makes them easier to find.)

The CNN reported on Wednesday that Clifford Hart, who is the US envoy for six-party talks aimed at denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula, met with Han Song-ryol in New York in mid-March.
In the meeting the US official called for North Korea to refrain from taking 'provocative actions,' the report said, adding that Washington had also urged Pyongyang to return to diplomacy. However, nothing came of the meeting and US officials made no new offers.
The meeting was described as part of the so-called New York channel that is a method of direct communication between the US and North Korea.
White House spokesman Jay Carney has said that Washington has a "channel of communications with the North Koreans, and we utilize that channel."
In March, the US and South Korea began joint military exercises that saw the controversial participation of the US nuclear-capable B-52 and B-2 stealth bombers.
On April 3, the Pentagon announced a decision to deploy an advanced anti-missile system to the Pacific island of Guam to protect the US military bases and the 6,000 American military personnel there.
The moves promoted Pyongyang to step up its war rhetoric and move two medium-range Musudan missiles to its eastern coast.
The North Korean army on April 4 said it had received permission to launch preemptive 'nuclear' strikes on the US.

The Best Ethnic Food Carts in Midtown: MOTB explores.
[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="500" caption="In the Biryani Cart - in the cart with owner Meru."][/caption] We mentioned a few months ago that we're in the process of scouting NYC's five boroughs for the best hidden gems in the food cart/food truck scene in order to nominate them for a Vendy Award. Recently, we had a chance to check out some of the golden standards of food vendors in Midtown by joining Urban Oyster on one of their two food cart tours. Many of these tasty mobile meals are provided by former Vendy winners, so it was great to get a close-up look at why these guys are so popular. [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="373" caption="Galbi, bulgogi, kimchee and japchae from Bapcha Cart"][/caption] We had a great time on the tour. Our guide and Urban Oyster cofounder Cindy VandenBosch was incredibly informative on the stories of each of the food carts as well as regarding the overall history of food trucks in NYC. You can tell she's spent a lot of time with vendors and really wants to help promote their place in the cultural fabric of NYC. The other great aspect of taking the tour was being able to check off several different types of ethnic eats on the cheap in the course of one afternoon. While we spend a lot of time in out of the way neighborhoods looking for the most authentic eats, that's certainly not the only way to get your fill as an ethnic food lover in NYC. Starting this Friday, July 8, Urban Oyster will be running a week-long promotion that will give you $5 off an Urban Oyster food cart tour when you buy tickets for this year's Vendy Awards. The Urban Oyster team is also a wealth of information on food carts and trucks in the city. Check out our Urban Oyster guide Brian Hoffman's blog and web series, Eat This NY, about his quest through some of NYC's most classic foods. Another great site they recommend is Midtown Lunch, a blog that follows food carts and other cheap eats in Midtown. Here are links to some of Urban Oyster's favorite food carts in Midtown: Trini Paki Boys (Yelp site) El Rey Del Sabor (Yelp site) Kwik Meal Biryani Cart (Yelp site) Bapcha (Yelp site) Miss Softee (Yelp site) Other Urban Oyster favorites not included on this particular day's midtown tour: Jamaican Dutchy Wafels & Dinges Schnitzel & Things Be sure to check back here on Friday for a recap of the Financial District food cart tour!

text: The folks over at DroidGamers got an exclusive preview of a new Android Port of a 3D space-themed MMORPG for the Android, called Vendetta Online, by Guild Software. Originally, this game was just for the PC, but the sharp developers at Guild Software decided to create a port for the Android OS. The developers indicated that it will probably need a Tegra 2 or other dual-core chip to run properly, but they also shared that it might be possible to run it on other Android hardware. A beta release is currently planed for this month if all goes well. The game is somewhat similar to EVE Online, although not nearly as economy-centered. It's basically a space-ship themed simulator with combat and upgradeable space-vessels. It's even being designed to be cross-platform compatible with the PC version, so you can battle it out with your friends from the coffee shop while they are at home on their PC's. Above is a video at CES of the game-play in action. Looks like another addictive habit to chew through my Android's battery life... :icon_rolleyes: Source: DroidGamers and Vendetta Online by dgstorm

How To Walk The Narrow Plank Over The Abyss of Indecision And Uncertainty
MODE of Cosmic Therapy Esoteric Psychology
MODE Of Cosmic Therapy E-Mail O-Gram Invitation: Karmic Implications
What do you do when you experience the day's energy as estranged, emotionally draining, disassociated, mangled and bizarre? You know what I'm talking about, when everything seems to go haywire.
Your words are misunderstood, your facial expressions reveal too much and your actions are blatantly misfired. {Not to mention how suspicious, jealous, insecure, envious, worried, and sexually frustrated you are.}
The last thing on the agenda involves your trying to explain, adding kerosene to the already explosive fire. Then, of course, you get angry, defensive and bitterly sarcastic. (Not a favorable outcome)
In order to release the accrued psychic debris, once having gotten caught up in the muddled incoherent conversations of the day; let them go immediately. Don't hold onto the words spoken in haste, exasperation, defense and more importantly, don't add undo signficance to outlandish emotional drama.
When you emphasize an occasion of ill-repute, nothing productive (that you can see) can come from it. No matter what the engaging circumstances entailed, you can't possibly begin to determine what actually occurred or for what divine reason.
Above all, if you are interested in growing through the troublesome affair, do not feed it 'mashed potatoes and gravy' to fatten the barrel of discontent.
Don't spend one minute reflecting on a turbulent matter which has no logical clarification. That's what ensues when we, as human beings, try to interfere with the workings of sacred business.
Our thoughts are jumbled, our words mumbled and our actions fumbled in response to an event whose tentacles of explanation are left dangling in the celestial wind.
We can ascribe whatever meaning we want to in order to justify our (or someone else's) abrasive actions but to no avail. Why won't we just leave the matter alone?
IF you choose to continue talking about it, the 'stink' will increase and you will turn out to be the one who smears diaper dump in a ridiculous blabbering masquerade of deflected jumbled non-sense.
What has occurred IF you are genuinely interested in discovering some of the mystery is this: YOU have vacated the premises. {YOU and Elvis have left the building.} You have summoned conflicitng life situations (supplied with competent convincing actors) that would give you clues as to what it is you need to do with your life since you are not happy with the present environment.
In fact, you are currently lodged between the bolder of two divertive realities.
Example: "What to do verses what NOT to do." [In order, not to lose too much, you are clinging to the remnant of a 'time, place, person, situation, idealistic notion not conducive' to the current instability of reality and/or present state of inconsistent mind]. In other words, your season has changed.
Accept the supposition, not only are the roads aversive but also diametrically opposed. Slip back; hold tight: everything's gonna be all right! If you were literally standing before a down sloping transverse pool of quick sand, and not painstakingly careful, you would be submerged before you could bat your eyelids.
So, what to do? Nothing! Be still.
Let the winds of adversity blow over and around you. You simply remain in the whirlwind until it passes. Do not defend, excuse, apologize, or try to explain. The exhausting process involved in and disposing of personal emotional dramas requires quite an elaborate stage to play itself out in.
Yet, in the process, you are able to experience a new vision of yourself you never thought possible. Always, and forever has a hidden part of your personality been disguised from you (just out of view) waiting for the unlikely expression to unfold in a totally unexpected manner.
You may inadvertently misinterpret these episodes as something so bad but nothing could be further from the truth.
These inexplicable little sessions are just the beginning of your moving into the next orb of your current existence. How can the episodes feel familiar to you when you've never been here before?
Karma is splitting you right down the middle and what will be left once the season passes, is descriptively decided upon what is genuinely important to you.
How long will you insist on playing games of preferred security, comfort and familiarity while you sublimate your own sexually motivated instinctively imbued talent? How long will you continue to believe that you actually can repress an inner drive to connect, express and communicate a natural artistic gift you possess?
Stop weaving such a tangled web of self-concerned deceit. Who cares if 'they' don't understand what you want/need to do? Do it anyway! Stop listening to the negative, non-supporting, pessimistic comments. Everywhere you turn, you see yourself.
Stop running and face the obvious consequences of your artistic desires staring you right in the face.
Be not a partner with others engaging in forms of gossip and dispute over untried experiences. You don't KNOW until you jump into it! Until you empty the idea of being so 'good' and 'unruffled', you will continue in a lion's pit of dejection.
Back and forth and back and forth, indecisively alternating is a perfectly sound way to operate at this time. Don't be so hell-bent on resolving an issue not ready to be resolved.
IF you are calm enough, still enough, quiet enough, you will recognize, out of this evident subterfuge, an extremely creative original warrior face of yours, which you mistakenly thought caused you excessive trouble.
You must embrace the unrecognized discarded self!
By doing so, you will come clean with the one and only meaningful destiny (intent) of your soul.
Remind yourself: This apparent troublesome situation is the perfect stage to lead you where you need to go but if you continue to molly coddle yourself by ignoring significant events, omens, symbols, dreams, and signs, nothing but a probing unclear sense of doom will pervade your being.
You must be available to your soul's sacred intent!
Therefore, you will experience an indescribable uneasiness while you make the unconcealed transition from a 'dabble of uncertainty' to more chaotic turmoil before you are afforded the strength to pass over the proverbial abyss.
The break through is imminent and the things you perceive as preventing you from moving ahead are the vital substances needed to pad the spring board. You are hiding your head in the sand like an ostrich but this time, that game of shoe fly just won't work!
You can't board the train with an outdated ticket. A new day of unsurpassed opportunity is upon you. Peer at it squarely. Look beyond the boundaries of repetitive assumption. Where is your attention flowing? Follow it!
On what point are hung up? Kick it to the curb! It no longer appeals to you. Buy a green spotted glass giraffe to remind you that you are NOT fitted for the coffin, yet. Do the unlikely. Surprise yourself.
Do you really enjoy playing unproductive games and mindless boring routines? Sexuality is the highest form of spirituality available to mankind. What artistic venture can you deduce to express it creatively? Attract what you WILL!!!
Don't be afraid of your inherent sacred sexual imaginative prowess.

I'm always impatient for the Reserves thread to start and so I'm going to get it going this time.
First things first: the match has been confirmed as the curtain closer for the elimination final against Essendon: SCG double header locked in - sydneyswans.com.au. The match is scheduled to start at 7.45 pm. Free entry to the SCG from 7.15 pm. I presume this means that we can sit wherever we like? I might try moving to some of the premium seats that are normally out of my price range for the Reserves. Brewongle? O'Reilly?
The second thing to observe is that these have been the top 2 teams all year. The Lions are the only team to have beaten us all year. And, like Hawthorn at AFL level, they have done it not once, but twice! However, sadly for them, the Lions are standing in the way of DESTINY! We have been cruelled by the footy gods the past 3 years and now it is OUR TIME!
Changes to the team? Could there be a swap of ruckmen? Will Naismith get promoted at the expense of Tippo or Sinkers? And, if he is, will they play NEAFL? Papley and Hannebery return to the seniors. Harry C is likely to be relegated (he played NEAFL over the weekend just gone) but who else? My tip: Hayward will miss. Seniors loss is the Reserves gain. Decent consolation for him too if we win our inaugural NEAFL flag.
Unfortunately for the Lions, Schache is going to miss the game: Home time for Schache as he misses NEAFL GF - AFL.com.au. Then again he is out of sorts and they won last weekend without him so perhaps it is for the best all round. Sad for Schache though that he is feeling bad enough not to be motivated to play in the Grand Final when the opportunity is there, even if it is NEAFL. On the other hand it didn't stop Buddy coming back as good as ever in 2016 after missing 2015 finals for similar reasons. The Lions had a good victory over Sydney Uni in their prelim, who were tougher opposition than the Suns: MATCH REPORT: Brisbane out-muscles Sydney University to book Grand Final spot � NEAFL. Hopefully that won't harm our chances any and we'll make the most of our home ground advantage and a decent crowd in support.
Onwards to VIC-TORY!

On planning a trip away, be it to your family holiday or business or leisure, the most important belongings you organise are flights and accommodation. Forgetting to organise simple things like getting with the airport for a accommodation can be this type of inconvenience upon arrival. There are plenty of possibilities nevertheless, you might get caught paying far more then you need to or taking a lot longer then you should to attain your destination if you do not have pre-arranged transport.
There exists a preconceived proven fact that private airport transfers are so costly with the average traveler but upon a bit of research you will find they offer a much safer (especially for children), relaxing and customarily more affordable option.
When choosing your airport transfer, an important areas to consider really should be:
· Safety. A safe and friendly driver effortlessly relevant qualifications and knowledge from the local area through experience in lieu of counting on a GPS is critical. Taxis along with other or trains options usually do not provide any child restraints* (that you then have to supply yourself) and further luggage could potentially cause a dilemma. However, having a private transfer these options might be discussed and arranged at the time of booking. * New laws nationwide now report that children have to be secured within an approved child restraint until they reach their seventh birthday.
· Budget. Whenever you have an overabundance of than two people travelling together, an individual door-to-door airport transfer becomes equally less expensive. Other transport choices are charged per adult / child, whereas most airport transfer quotes are per vehicle. Making sure you do have a pre-paid journey booked to match your specific requirements may be far more relaxing than the usual pay as you go journey as the drivers may take yourself on longer routes to drive in the price and you may even be charged hidden costs like parking at the airport fees, toll / road fees, etc.
· Personalised. Think carefully about the type of service you may want. Drivers who're operating alternate get and go away 'shuttle' type services could be under additional pressure to satisfy deadlines and commitments than a driver of your private door-to-door service. Which has a shuttle, there is little change margin for flight or traffic delays and actual examine point travel times less difficult beyond that relating to a primary service. A reoccurring trend in the business, which fits and is overtaken by the customer, is always that up-and-coming small to medium businesses have the ability to provide more extras better value than larger, corporate companies. Small establishments convey more versatility to fit the everyday traveler's needs.
Private airport transfers are fantastic for families with children in that as soon as you depart, that you are traveling instantly to your destination. Re-decorating valuable for business travel because it comes with a more at ease option than queuing for just a taxi as well as a more direct option than selecting a shuttle bus.
There are many firms that offer private airport transfer services, just be sure you utilise one licensed with relevant qualifications for your services they feature. Choosing your transport option based purely on cost can certainly be costly over time.

It's Now Illegal to Picnic In Venice!
Here's a sampling of newly prohibited behaviors:
No eating or drinking other than in restaurants, no littering, no sitting other than in a restaurant, no resting or reclining under a portico, no dangling feet in the canals, no swimming (yuck), no bare chests or sunbathing, no bicycling, no roller blades. In other words, keep moving and don't stop until you're ready to spend money in a restaurant, and be neat about it when you do!
There has been an effort to eliminate take out food all together, which directly effects the tradition of selling food for less at a cafe counter rather than at a table. So far the 6 officers hired to be €˜picnic police' have been giving warnings prior to issuing fines.
In their defense, trash has become a major issue (with McDonalds contributing more than their fair share). All refuse must be bagged, collected, loaded onto boats and taken far away. And if the Mayor has his way, the pigeons had better keep their whits about them as well – he'd like them to disappear right along with the trash!

I would like to move on to a very simple question for both of you and something tells me ... I won't get a very simple answer ... welcome to Opinion Journal I'd mind Dan Henninger ... well we're going to start discussion of last night's debate with Joe Biden and Paul Ryan by focusing on the woman in the middle part though the moderator Martha rather it's here to talk about it with me is main Street Columnist Bill McGurn and then ... they go ... by a large ... Ms Rattles is of ... performance is being described is substantially better than Jim Lehrer you've been discussed and written about ... the moderators for price would you ... agree that you know I know one or IRA I a I agree this extent I think the media loves her performance ... I think she took the lesson ... that the critics of Blair were saying that he lost control she wants to stay in control ... and the prom is that we lost a lot and today ... I found it very disconcerting ... that ... that one person gets to decide what the topics are how long we spend on it and so forth ... and use all that individuals if you're watching on TV with their debating are ... not really each other ... well on that point it's a very good point though because there's a distinction I think to be made ... between stayed the moderator of a Sunday morning talk show all those programs ... and the debate between two of Canada's our lives ... on Sunday morning this guests debate the moderator right for shore but that's not what the show was that this program was supposed to be right may in fact ... the shows are called me to prosper you invite them on ... for the press to the start of the Inquisitor Nance the questions ... this is a speed debate between two candidates and I think ... that is better if the candidates decide if I'm running against you ... let me decide what issues I wanna attack you wanna let you decide what issues for aam former all ... the other advantage of that model is ... there's no accusations of box DEL because these guys go if if if something's not brought up the onthe criticize the forty seven percent not being brought up ... in the first debate ... whose fault is that the candidates fall don't you think there was any indication no ... bias one way or another but ... the of this and then the vice president I don't I don't think Martha rounds bias I think she was trying to be in control ... I think she'd generally and sharp questions and what she thought were sharp questions of each candidate ... I will say did seem to me that Paul Ryan ... was cut off a little more ... than Joe Biden ... and again I would like to seen them collided with each other also if you're going to go to that model ... with a moderator really moderates ... it seems to me that question ... know that she minded ounces Mr. bind you think this is funny ... to white you why do you ... do it because it was very distracting Dell for for an audience well ... there was a question whether she didn't factory maintain control ... of the debate on me I was reading through the transcript that you get the somebody sections ... of Vice President Biden is repeated ... for a long period of time interrupting ... Berkeley everything Paul Ryan is saying right and whatever else one may say about it was impossible to follow when they were talking about the point she never really got control now and remember after the first day when there is all this criticism to my are ... the Commission on presidential debates of the fall of the format he did was they were after which is ... less monitor the last of the moderator and more of the candidates to me to paraphrase Jefferson ... those who moderate bass moderate nice to know you have a rough time equally ... and let them go on it while this was a completely different kind of today and would be nice them to decide what we're going to ... well you know on this subject of the so called debates ... that there are people persons inside the system that is used in between presidential candidates in France but they sit across the table from one another for two sometimes three hours and just ... walked one another ... and have an argument basically over the issues that are in the in the campaign and somebody will soar to sit there ... and break them up the kids out of hand or move them onto the next object but I agree that ... I think what people want is to hear these two individuals talking to one another also meant that if it is the question is biased why shouldn't be up to one person to decide to questions ... Mr Romney has flaws in the campaign ... Mr Obama has a philosophy the campaign why shouldn't they be the ones to race what they think is important ... when they think is a sharp question instead of having to filter through to someone else I think ... that that you've got to know that when people confuse ... an appearance on meet the press ... with the presidential debate Dell ...

To what unique revelation does Orwell's position as a police officer lead him? How can Gideon's ultimate decision not to share his knowledge be interpreted as an act of rebellion and an assertion of the dignity and worth of his culture?

Local news story you guys, nothing to see here…
San Francisco's Gay Icon Larry Brinkin Guilty of Felony Child Porn Possession | CNS News.
Larry Brinkin, who worked at the Human Rights Commission for the City of San Francisco for 22 years and was a prominent homosexual rights activist for more than 40 years, pleaded guilty to felony child pornography possession last week.
Brinkin is expected to serve six months in jail, five years of probation, and register as a sex offender for the rest of his life when he is sentenced on Mar. 5. But he likely will get to keep his city pension because possessing and viewing child porn apparently is not considered a crime of "moral turpitude" under San Francisco's retirement/pension rules.

Loon Outdoors Nip N Sip
by Chris GrechThe Nip N Sip from Loon Outdoors is like a mullet. I'm not talking about the fish, I'm talking about the hairstyle. Just like that popular redneck hairstyle that we all secretly wish we had, the Nip N Sip is "Business in the front and party in the back!" All kidding aside, there are two very important tasks that must be completed on each fishing outing; cutting line and opening bottles. (Catching fish is also important.) This handy little tool accomplishes both jobs in style with its stainless steel cutting blades, built-in bottle opener, extra wide grated pads for grip and eye clearing needle. The Loon Outdoors Nip N Sip allows anglers to cut their line easily and enjoy a beverage without breaking their teeth or breaking the bank. Pick one up for yourself and a true friend today.

The Allegory of Site and the Resettling of Smith Cove
Richter, Jennifer Chen
MetadataShow full item record
This thesis takes a magical realist approach to unpack today's challenges and to inspire a subjective relationship to these matters. The primary motivation is to add to the dialogues of our times and to enhance architecture's normative approach for a-historical, pragmatic, short-term problem solving. Interbay is the industrial switching yard of Seattle with strong historical echoes. Formerly a waterway, in 1911, the land was capped by asphalt., a 56-acre parking lot remains. The site is an engineered landscape, a relic of Seattle's past. Early settlers played high-stakes by building a railyard on waterways and overlaid notions of risk-taking and engineering onto the landscape. Considering global warming and rising sea levels, the seawater will inevitably return. An imagined resettlement of Smith Cove is proposed and the persona of the settler is developed as two characters: the gambler and the engineer, based on notions of manipulating the landscape through chance and opportunity.

Charis Wilson, Model and Muse
Charis Wilson's name may not have been familiar to many people, but the rest of her certainly was. Ms. Wilson, who died Nov. 20 at age 95, was the model and muse to Edward Weston, one of the greatest photographers of the 20th century.
They met in 1934, when Weston was 48 and Charis (pronounced Karras) was 19. Here's a photo by Weston of what she looked like when they first met. Weston was the married father of four sons -- two of whom were older than Charis -- but they were drawn to each other, and she promptly replaced another young female assistant who had been working with Weston. (In the 1920s, Weston's chief model had been the memorably photogenic Tina Modotti.) When Charis began posing for Weston, casually disrobing in front of him, never self-conscious about nudity. "I'd whip off my clothes whenever possible," she said.
"I was sexually pretty advanced for my years," Ms. Wilson said two years ago, making it clear that she made the first moves toward intimacy. In her 1998 autobiography, she wrote: "I realized that his reputation as a Lothario was wildly exaggerated. I would have to take the first step. I did so, and even though it was only a compelling look, it soon brought photography to a halt."
She chose her own posing positions, without being directed by Weston. He would then would capture her in photographs that were intimate and subtly erotic. She recalled in later years that he had pince-nez on a cord around his neck and would peer at her through the lenses of the glasses. When he looked through his camera, he would toss the pince-nez over his shoulder.
In 1937, Ms. Wilson wrote much of the entry that won Weston the first Guggenheim grant ever awarded to a photographer. They traveled throughout the West photographing landscapes. (One of their best friends at the time was a still-undiscovered Ansel Adams.) At Lake Ediza in California's High Sierra, where Weston snapped this memorable shot of Charis, sitting against a rock face.
This is one of my favorite photographic portraits ever. Charis gazes directly at the camera, wearing knee-high lace-up boots and with her knees splayed apart apart. Only her face and hands are exposed. Later, when she was asked about the erotic undercurrents of the shot, she professed ignorance. She was merely exhausted at the end of a long day, she maintained. All she had energy to do was to sit down and stare impassively at the camera.
Still, Ms. Wilson was conscious of her effect on Weston, that she was something of a muse inspiring him to reach new artistic heights. "It opened up a new vision for him," she said in 1998, describing their meeting in 1934. "The romantic view washed away completely. The world just opened up anew for him, and he figured he'd never run out of things to photograph. It was endlessly exciting for him."
It was also exciting for her. In a 2007 documentary, In the film, she said her meeting Weston "changed my life almost immediately, because I realized that everything I had been after and was looking for was right here, and all I had to do was reach out and go, and grow with him."
Their life together lasted just 11 years. Ms. Wilson left Weston in 1945 and married union organizer Noel Harris one day after her divorced was final in 1946. She had two daughters with Harris and was divorced again in 1967. Weston died in 1958 at age 71.
Charis Wilson was almost 91 when she was interviewed for "Eloquent Nude: The Love and Legacy of Edward Weston and Charis Wilson," an excellent documentary released in 2007:

Analogue Photography and Polaroid Cameras in Mutante Magazine9 Share Tweet
Mutante is a Portuguese online magazine. The concept, as the name says (Mutant) is about transformation and experimentation, something that we lomographers love.
Analogue pictures have featured in several editions of this magazine. "#3 – Black in White" features the "Série Pinhole" and in "#4 – City" there are some Fisheye and LOMO LC-A pictures, including my own. In the last edition, "#7 – Night" I also participated with an LC-A picture.
But the spotlight in this number is for the article "A Magia da Polaroid", about an exhibition that shows several models of this brand. The exhibition "A Magia da Polaroid – Colecção Raul Cunca" was in Castelo Branco, Portugal, until 31.03.2011. The article is written in Portuguese, like the whole magazine is but I assure you that the fashion-style pictures of the Polaroid cameras and other works are worth a look even if you can't read Portuguese.
Check out the Mutante official website!

June. The month means different things to different people. To kids: "School's out for the summer, hurray!" To parents: "School's out for the summer. Now what are we going to do with the kids?" And to Boeing
Boeing goes to zero
As we enter the sixth month of the year, you see, Boeing's still right back where it was at the year's beginning -- at least as far as plane orders go. The past five months and change have seen the company book 65 news orders for planes of various stripes -- 737s and 747s, 767s, 777s, and of course the vaunted 787 Dreamliner. Which would be great ... except that Boeing can't seem to keep hold of the orders once it's got 'em.
So far this year, Boeing has lost precisely as many commercial jetliner orders as it has landed, with the result that right now, this instant, the company's stuck at zero. Not a single new order, net-net, all year long. That sounds like bad news for Boeing, and for the people who make its engines -- General Electric
... appearances can be deceiving
That doesn't tell the whole story. Even if all of Boeing's planes are equally good, some are more equal than others. Last week, for example, Boeing lost five orders for variants of its 767 airliner. On the plus side of the ledger, it added five orders for its 787. That sounds like a wash, but really it isn't. According to Boeing's price list, the average price on a brand new 767 is about $150 million -- which is the least amount that the smallest 787 will set you back. Average sticker price on a Dreamliner: $178 million.
Less than zero
But it works the other way around, too. So far this year, Boeing's failure to get the 787 built and delivered on schedule has helped cost it 44 cancellations. Boeing bulls will tell you, however, that it's mitigated the damage by selling 41 737s, the plane that dominates the fleets at Continental
Foolish takeaway
Next time someone tells you that "Boeing's a buy" because it has $350 billion in backlogged work and, well, maybe it's not booking any new orders, but at least it's holding steady, remember -- not all orders are created equal.
What's worse than losing plane orders? Losing a labor dispute:

Minimally-Invasive Operations Give Aesthetic Medicine a Makeover.
Technological advancement can have things getting smaller but amazingly better. Some powerful electronic devices are becoming more and more unobtrusive especially in health-related sciences.
Several of the greatest advancements are allowing physicians and traditional surgeons the opportunity allow patients to get back to their routine with practically no visible scarring. Specifically, doctors in the field of cosmetic medicine are providing their individual's transformative processes that become little more than modest irritations rather than full-on surgical endeavors.
These new "minimally-invasive" processes are getting a great deal of attention from physicians as well as other people, for their progressive way of aesthetic services. Conventionally, the phrase "cosmetic procedure" would evoke impressions of a disguised surgeon slitting away to help face lift, augment and reduce his patients according to their exceptional anatomical wishes. Now, doctors can provide patients similar – if not indistinguishable – results to plastic surgery with a dime-sized incision and local anesthesia.
What makes this minimally-invasive type of treatment a reality is using laser technologies to replace the need for excessive cutting. In the place of letting the scalpel do the incision, physicians can make a little incision near the surgical site, and after that add a cannula built with a little laser fiber at its tip which navigates through the body tissues and administers different wavelengths of thermal power to coagulate the tissue and cauterize any blood movement.
One of the most popular kinds of minimally-invasive cosmetic medicine comes from SmartLipo Laser Lipolysis. As one may deduce from your name, SmartLipo is a type procedural cousin to liposuction but removes the use for the invasive surgical procedure. The SmartLipo laser is utilized to tackle areas of undesired fat and treats the locations with beats of thermal power to essentially melt the fat tissue which can be discarded naturally via the body's lymphatic system.
The Cellulaze Cellulite Remedy is another procedure that blossomed from this minimally -invasive motion, and claims to be the best cellulite treatment currently available.
Since the incisions are so unobtrusive, the possibility of serious blood loss is considerably decreased through the usage of minimally-invasive remedies. Additionally, the blood vessels can coagulate immediately, preventing the human anatomy from losing lots of blood. The enhanced security of a minimally-invasive process might be hugely appealing to an operation first-timer who's afraid to give the surgeon's table commitment.
Patients are also delighted to find the healing time proposed for these processes is very short plus they are able to go back with their daily routines within a week generally. After viewing how popular these remedies have become, several physicians have started training with one of these minimally-invasive methodologies to provide their patients the most efficient cosmetic procedure available. Pay a visit to a cosmetic specialty practice near one to master how these exceptional treatments can contour the body and get straight back on your feet!.

Phoenix Oil Reports U.S. Patent Grant on Hydrogen Technology
Phoenix Canada Oil reports U.S. Patent granted on its licensed hydrogen generation technology. Phoenix holds exclusive rights for 20 years beyond the 17-year patent term. The patent covers hydrogen generation from water feedstock employing catalytic conversion of solar light energy.
Toronto; 26 October 2006 -- Phoenix Canada Oil Company (TSXV : PCO & OTC BB : PHXCF) today announced that U.S. Patent No. 7,122,171 has been granted on the hydrogen gas generation technology held by its U.S. unit, Phoenix International Energy Inc., under a long term, worldwide Technology License Agreement with a major U.S. research university. Phoenix exclusivity under the agreement extends for 20 years beyond the initial 17-year patent term.
The newly issued patent establishes the "foundation" technology designed to generate low cost hydrogen gas from common water feedstock. The innovative process effectively harnesses and catalytically converts solar light energy to produce hydrogen gas as the ultimate sustainable clean energy resource. The Phoenix hydrogen economy initiative will employ the generated hydrogen gas as a replacement, rather than alternative, clean energy fuel that can eliminate global warming issues and greenhouse gas emissions, with minimal environmental impact on long term climate stability.
Hydrogen gas combustion produces sustainable clean energy, with only pure water vapour emissions. Energy derived from alternative coal, hydrocarbon and nuclear fuels will be constrained by the depletion of reserves, the costs and dangers in dealing with carbon, sulphur and nitrous oxide emissions and with nuclear waste disposal. The planet's virtually inexhaustible hydrogen resources can guarantee the survival of an energy dependent civilization.
International intellectual property protection is being secured by way of a current PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) filing effective in all major industrial nations. Definitive national patent filings will be evaluated over the next 18 months.

Gloria S Korzon
Missing March 6, 1981 from Warrington, Bucks County
Vital Statistics
Age at Time of Disappearance:
37 - about a month shy of her 38th birthday
Date of Birth:
April 21, 1943
5"3" to 5'5"
115 - 120 lbs
Hair Color:
Dark Brown
Eye Color:
Xrays & dental records available
all personal effects; car, cash, credit cards, etc. were left behind.
Case Details
The last time Gloria was seen alive was on Friday, March 9, 1981 as she left her job in Horsham, Montgomery County, just a short 6 miles or so from her home. She has not been seen since.
Gloria's brother had last spoken to her in early 1981, when he called her from his home in Massachusetts to say that their mother had undergone heart bypass surgery and was in the hospital. In the following weeks, her family made dozens of calls, being told that she either wasn't there or wouldn't come to the phone. They left numerous messages, but never heard back from Gloria.
In April 1981 Gloria's mother received a Mother's Day card, ostensibly from Gloria. It was signed not with the familiar "Love, Gloria" but the more formal "Gloria Korzon". And it wasn't in her handwriting. That is when her family contacted the police. When the then-police chief went to the Korzon residence, Gloria's husband said that she had gone to visit an aunt in Florida. Gloria had an aunt in Florida, but she had not heard from Gloria in months.
Gloria was married to William Korzon, known in the neighborhood as a gun collector and wife beater. About a month before Gloria disappeared, she sent a letter to her stepfather, instructing him not to open it unless something happened to her. The letter was a 3-page list of beatings that Gloria claimed to had suffered at the hands of her husband. The Korzons were not unknown to local police, who had responded to at least eight domestic incidents at their home between 1976 and 1980. Gloria filed for protection from abuse orders against William, but would always withdraw her complaints before the court hearings.
William Korzon was, and still is, the prime suspect in the disappearance and probable death of his wife. Police obtained a search warrant in 1986 to dig up his back yard. The first search turned up nothing, but the second search a week later yielded the body of Gloria's pet dog.
William Korzon divorced Gloria in 1987. She was declared dead in 1997 - sixteen years after she disappeared. Her mother died in July 1987, her step-father died in December 1989. Her brother, her only sibling, became sole beneficiary of her estate.
Gloria's husband has never been charged with her murder and her body has never been found.

I had a wonderful time by the seaside. This picture was taken after a rainstorm, and the ocean was a bit rough. The fog still clung closely to the water, painting a dreary, yet gorgeous scene.
The next day we went on a hike through the forest. Everything was still a bit wet, damp, and cold until we made it to the top of the hill and above the fog. We noticed a lot of fallen trees along the way, probably a result of the previous storm that had blown through a few weeks ago.
It's been a while since I've been on a hike like this and I've decided we need to make more of an effort to get away from the city and back into nature. I have a dream of living in a cottage in a forest or a country setting. Hopefully someday that will come true.
While away I read through some of the crafty blogs I follow and came across Cozy Things blog post about quilting. I have never quilted before — all of the cutting and measuring always seemed to be a bit daunting to me — but I was inspired by how she was making her quilt without worrying about all of the technical stuff. I decided to give it a go, especially since I have a huge pile of fabric scraps waiting to be used…
This isn't even a fraction of the fabric bits and pieces I've had stored in my closet. It's time to give them some life!
I don't have the patience to hand sew my quilt, so I'm using my machine. It's definitely imperfect… It's definitely going to be a bit funky and uneven, but I don't mind. I'm having a lot of fun with it. x

Testimony of Leaving Islam
Hello everyone. I will greet all of you by saying "Peace be upon you of all faiths and religions" and not "Peace be upon only those who follow true guidance of Islam". The reasons why I left Islam are numerous. To begin the journey, I'll have to go back a few years.
I was born into a "moderate" Muslim family of Pakistani origin. I have lived in Canada for over 15 years and enjoyed its democratic freedoms, despite the fact that I knew the term "freedom" itself was alien to Islam. I honestly had no problem with Islam, in fact I loved it so much when I was little that I would believe in all of the absurdities (jinns, shoulder angels etc.) of Islam. However, I was "little" back then so I had little knowledge of Islam. I did not fully know what Islam really taught. What Muhammad's actual lifestyle was like. What Islam's ultimate mission was. How Islam achieves its goals, and of course how Islam treats its followers. These topics are seldom discussed amongst the Muslims here in Canada, and if they were to be discussed it would always involve misrepresentations of the truth, verses quoted out of context, exaggerations, and fabrications. All of these things are essentially the backbone of "Taqiyya", which is the permissibility of lying in Islam.
In early 2009, it happened. Yes, you guessed it, I was starting to lose my faith in Islam as fast as my fingernails grew. Did Muhammad really see an angel? Is the Qur'an true of false? Is Allah real? This caused me to investigate Islam. Indeed, investigating ones religion and being exposed to blatant truths can be dangerous, but then again the Qur'an itself says "Truth stands clear from Falsehood". So I gave it a shot, and started using an extremely useful tool called the "Internet" to commence my quest. The very first pieces of evidence I came across to prove Islam as true were these pictures of Mother Nature that were found proudly displayed on Islamic Da'wah websites. These websites said that Arabic scribblings resembling the name of Allah or Muhammad were purportedly found on a tree, in the sky, in a watermelon, on a goat, in a forest, and as far as a childish imagination will take you. However, I knew it was completely ridiculous to rest my faith on these silly photo shopped images. So I went on in my quest and eventually I came to this website which I'm sure you know called "Faith Freedom International" by ex-Muslim Ali Sina. Like most Muslims who are exposed to anti-Islamic material, I initially stayed away from that site and wanted it removed. However, I stopped and started thinking rationally and logically. I said to myself "Come on man, let's just see what's going on with Ali Sina's website and see what it is on his website that's bringing hundreds of Muslims out of the so-called darkness of Islam".
So I took a sneak peek inside and I started seeing the truth. I encountered Ali Sina's challenge and saw the irrefutable claims he had against Muhammad. For a period of roughly three months, I've been reading articles exposing the truth of Islam. I saw the true color of Islam. The dark side of Prophet Muhammad. The deception of Allah. The lies of the Qur'an. The blunders in the Hadith. The more truth that I was exposed to, the more questions rose in my mind. How can a man who marries and consummates with a child at the age of 9, be an "Excellent role model for mankind"? How can Islam be a peaceful religion when it kills its apostates? How can Islam be a religion of friendship when it viciously hates Jews, Christians, Idol Worshipers, Women, Homosexuals, and Apostates? How can Islam be a religion of love when Allah only loves Muslims according to Qur'an 3:32? How can Islam be true when its basic beliefs (such as Jesus not dying on the cross) completely contradict clear historical proofs of historical events such as Jesus' crucifixion? How can a religious book permit sex with slaves (Qur'an 4:24)?
The truth is that these questions are rhetorical and thus cannot be answered by Muslims without using Islamic deception to some degree. Now for me, Faith Freedom International went from an Islamophobic blog to my bookmarked favorite websites. I can't believe Zakir Naik, a famous scholar of Islam, runs from Ali Sina's challenge. While being exposed to the truth of Islam, I also came across the teachings of Christianity and the sayings of Jesus Christ. There is literally no comparison between the characteristics, sayings, and deeds of Muhammad and Jesus. The God of the Bible was teaching his followers to love everyone and not only fellow Christians. He taught people to live humbly in peace and not to wage war.
And so my respected readers, this is how I left Islam and found a way of life more "livable" for me. All I can say is I hope all Muslims read what their scripture teaches. Truth always wins at the end of the day.
